It's a better fit certainly, but I avoided the parallel because it simply doesn't work.
The US Military has been hamstrung by poor policy since the fall of Saddam, and perhaps much before.
Try as hard as our Military can (and I do believe they are giving it their all) they have been put into a situation where their skills and effort are not enough to win on their own. There is no military end game in Iraq, nor the War on Terror.
If your vote truly goes towards those that give the troops what they need to win, they you should be outraged those you probably voted for sent them on an unplanned, mismatched mission with weak justification in Iraq...and were not allowed to finish the mission in Afghanistan.
