(Fort Campbell, KY-AP) October 16, 2006 - Vice President Cheney told soldiers at Fort Campbell, Kentucky, Monday afternoon that the only way terrorists can win in the Middle East is if the United States loses its nerve and abandons its mission.

Cheney, welcoming home troops from Iraq, said Fort Campbell soldiers helped move Iraq forward.

He praised the soldiers for facing some of the toughest conditions in modern warfare.

Afterall, he served valiantly in Vietnam, no wait, he got five deferments. Oh, I got it, he was part of the Marine contigent that took back the Mayaguez, no wait, he got five deferments. Wait, wait, wait I got it, he was part of Bull Simmons' Son Tay Raiders, damnit, no, he got five deferments. Ok, ok, ok he was with Charlie Beckwith during the failed attempt to rescue the hostages in Iran, no, crap, he got five deferments.
