Know Your History Before You Blab

Senate Minority blowhard Harry Reid gets his facts a little wrong:

I think, as we, as Senator Levin has said so many times, we have to get the political structure of Iraq together. America can not do that alone. We’ve been in Iraq longer than we were in World War II.

Expose the Left has the video.

Democrats aren't the only victims of historical ignorance, as this poll showed. World War II began much earlier than December 7, 1941 and lasted past its conclusion in September, 1945. With the fall of the "Iron Curtain" within months of the conclusion of the "hot" war, the Cold War and its military engagements continued for the next fifty years. Iraq, just one theater in the GWOT, is but the beginning. It may take just as long, if not longer to defeat the Islamofascists.
