Retreat from disaster is not surrender, cutting & running is not defeat.

[Philosoraptor]

So fuck all these assholes who are always using insults against we who hate dubya's masturbatory war. If your house is on fire, you get the hell out of there, and if someone calls you a coward for it, or says you're surrendering, you can tell them to run into the flames and die like an idiot.

Retreat in the face of imminent disaster is a tried and true military maneuver, cutting your losses and running from certain slaughter is not dishonorable, unless you're George Custer or george bush.

In the years to come, the most ill conceived military disaster in history will be roundly blamed on, who else, us. Anti war people will be called cowards with no stomach for war, and of course those spitting the curses at you are the ones who stridently avoided the battlefield.

The Democrats and liberals and anti war folks will be blamed for the defeat, failure, surrender, chaos, civil war, blamed for all the dead soldiers, blamed for all the dead Iraqis, blamed forever for ruining bush's glorious war. They'll say that we helped the terrorists survive to kill us again.

After the next awful terror attack the liberals will be blamed, and if it happens under a Democratic president, these same people will hang him or her from a tree.

1. How about "cutting your losses is not defeat"

Cutting and running is a repuke phrase
