Pick a war. Any war.

So this was the headline earlier this week:

Bush: War On Terror Like U.S. Revolution
In Presidents Day Speech, President Compares Revolutionary War With U.S. Fight Against Terrorism
And for those keeping track, this is the third war that he has compared the War on Terror to:

Bush: War on terror 'like WWII'

Bush likens war on terrorism to Cold War

Of course, all these wars we more or less won. I'm reminded of Bart Simpson's epilogue to the season one episode "Bart the General": "There are no good wars, with the following exceptions: the American Revolution, World War II, and the Star Wars Trilogy."

And then, of course, there is the bloody scoopful of chum that he threw to the Rapture crowd:
Bush likens 'war on terror' to WWIII

Nice language there, George. Just remember what good old Albert said: "I know not with what weapons World War III will be fought, but World War IV will be fought with sticks and stones."
