“I’m pretty sure George Bush will turn into a Harry Truman any minute now.”

Well, certainly the stage is set for that. The reason for both of their low popularity was their steadfast support for an unpopular war. The result for Truman was a free South Korea that is a strong trading partner and ally in the region. A primary difference was that the Korean “conflict” took far more casualties than Iraq. The other difference was that from a global strategic perspective, Iraq is far more important than Korea. We’ll see if Bush can withstand the assault of the surrender monkeys that inhabit the left aisles of Congress these days.
