BUSH'S VIETNAM

The United States had it's Vietnam. Afghanistan became Russia's Vietnam.

It's only fair that this one gets referred to as Bush's Vietnam, because that's what the hell it is.

I, for one, will cease using any other reference for this war. It's Bush's Vietnam.

6. Bushmire, clusterfuck, think-tank fantasy-planning...
Sorry, I won't be using your term with a few brick-brains who swallowed the RW mythos about Vietnam. Calling it "Bush's Vietnam" would just be an excuse for them to stop thinking altogether and wait for the Rambo movie.

7. I must be older than you
For me, it draws up images of a worhtless war fought for no reason whatsoever.
