I was listening to the news on NPR this morning, and there was a discussion about an interview with Bush on ABC where ABC News' George Stephanopoulos made a comment about a NY Times article by Thomas Friedman that compared the insurgency in Iraq as being similiar to the Tet offensive in Vietnam. The big to-do about the interview was that Bush apparently said, "H may be right."
What caught my attention about the interview was not Bush's remarks, but the fact that they said the "Vietnam conflict" and the "Iraqi war." We never officially declared war, so what makes this a "war" compared to Vietnam?
