18. Republicans and their war plans
Wed Apr 1, 2026, 04:31 PM

Like Nixon's "plan to end the war in Vietnam."

Or Rumsfeld's initial prediction of the duration of hostilities after Cheney invaded Iraq in 2003: "Maybe six days, maybe six weeks, certainly not six months."

oops. When Republicans get their hands on the Pentagon, it needs to be redesignated as what it is: The Department of Pretense, which may have to endure the temporary renaming, if led by incompetent secretaries with ties to the arms industry, as the Whore Department.
