5. The two biggest reasons I can think of is 1. because we lost that one big

time and 2. we lost it because of our little foray into Iraq.

Since we lost it due to complete ignorance and greed on the part of the bush* administration, it is not something that the press wants to discuss. bush* looks bad enough already without going into that subject.

Then there is always the issue that, like Iraq, we don't have a way of ever getting out of there. The embarrassment caused by losing ro third world warriors did terrible damage to the Soviets, it will do the same to us.
