NORMANDY???

Our President has kicked off his most recent "Sucker America on the Iraq war" tour. And in one of his early speeches, he's invoked Normandy as a comparison piece. Yes, World-fucking-War II Normandy.

That's not just an exaggeration. That sales pitch hovers much much closer to the realm of flat out untruthfulness. Its a venomous lie dressed up as mere oral puffery. If our troops were fighting their way through Kuwait and you turned the clock back 15 years, perhaps such a comparison would be justifiable.

But THIS Iraq war?

Normandy?!?

Are you serious?   PLEASE tell me that folks won't buy the shit he's shoveling this week.
