This was the “harsh” aftermath that George W. Bush attempted to describe this week when he warned against pulling out of Iraq as we did in Vietnam.

No it wasn't. President Bush was referring to events in the 1970s, not the 1990s. It's like the left has a mental disorder that works around the immediate postwar history of Vietnam.

The decision to pull out had very little effect on the ultimate outcome.

Yeah, so over a generation after the Vietnam war, things begin to start looking positive for Vietnam, so things were never bad there after 1975 (/s). And of course, he has a magical historical what-if box that tells him if the Vietnam War never happened, it would not have affected Russia's relationship with China, the fall of the Berlin wall, or the end of the USSR.
