It's like Bush never played Risk when growing up...

Never engage in a land war in Asia dammit!!

Upvote for 1984 quote...

Olbermann uses the word 'sober' in the same paragraph with 'bush.'

History is full of countries getting into pointless and disasterous wars.
Take ancient Greece, during the Peloponnesian War.
They were a Democracy, and rashly started a war that ended in self-destruction. For the kids out there, don't worry, nobody died or got hurt.

From this page:

The Peloponnesian War; this war would see the death of Pericles in its second year, but eventually witness the foolish destruction of the Athenian navy, the defeat of Athens, and the end of Athenian democracy.

yes, and knowing these things makes my head want to explode even faster.
The same mistakes have always been repeated, and will always be repeated.

Who is this guy? It's like watching a slightly miffed accountant.

This is not something you would ever see on British tv, some bloke having a long pop at a politician. Does someone else come on to supply a rebuttal?

@Deano- no, this is Olbermann's own show... of course, if one were to desire a rebuttal they can always tune into the O'Reilly Factor, or Hannity and Colmes, or any other news network pundit or 'reporter'... pretty much every angle on american politics has it's own personal soap box, or rather, time slot... long-winded personal "comments" are what american news networks are all about.
