Rebuttal to cut-and-run: "Did these Republicans cut-and-run?"
When Eisenhower accepted a stalemate with the North Koreans, did he cut-and-run?

When Nixon agreed to withdraw our forces from Vietnam, did he cut-and-run?

When Reagan pulled our Marines out of Lebanon, did he cut-and-run?

3. Actually - Reagan did cut and run. He was worried people would find out
that he had been warned about the danger our troops were in because of the lack of protection they had in the location they were in. Tip O'Neil warned him about it, but Reagan refused to listen and stuck by the decision, resulting in the massive killings of our troops.

He then started Grenada invasion to distract the media and the public from what actually happened in Lebanon. A real Wag the Dog.

5. You got that right. I remember that day like it was yesterday.
I was one mile away from the BLT and got knocked down and the wind knocked out of me.
