The ones sporting these types of decals are the ones desperately trying to make it seem like Vietnam so they can relate to the good times their baby boomer parents had with the reefer. They hope someone with a similar bumper sticker will pass them, honk and eventually stop so they can both hit the bong and complain about how they've been a victim of society for the past 20yrs of their 20yr life.
All wars have similarities. This is an individual war with its own hurdles, tactics and policy. The problem is just the insurgency. It doesn’t consist of a well trained Army similar to the NVA in a dense jungle. It’s a suicidal Army of numbers in a huge wasteland in which most of their men originated from surrounding countries Islamofanatic groups. Unlike Vietnam, we have already accomplished most of our missions and agenda. The insurgency is the only thing keeping Iraq from having a peaceful ends.

I've seen a couple of good ones lately.
one:
I liked that one a lot, and it made me laugh out loud in my car
or, not as good:
I didn't find that one that funny, but it was on a big *** Dodge Ram hemi pickup truck, so it caught my eye because it didn't have a Dubya 04 sticker like 90% of them do.

one:
Dumb, Dumber, Dubya.
or, not as good:
Four more wars

I think the sticker gpatmac posted is about arrogance... if you're secure (confident that you're safe), you're actually not safe because you're not expecting any threat. So if you're secure, you're not safe. Maybe. Just my thoughts on it...

Maybe another Franklin quote will help you all to understand Pat's:
"They that can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety."
