Santayana was right

For those of us who weren't non compos mentis in 1968, this rings all too true:

Smug, self-righteous, ideologues wielding unproven cocktail party geo-political theories to coerce reluctant Americans into war? Check.

Original premise of war proven to be bogus long after country commits to ruinous quagmire? Check.

Old men wave flag, young men die? Check.

Sons (and daughters) of "Old Man Flag Waving Brigade" in government mysteriously absent from serving in military? Check.

There's lots more.
