Iraq - Frog in the pot analogy

If you put a frog in boiling water, he will immediately jump out.

If you put him in cool water and turn up the heat, he will slowly boil to death without trying to get out.

Is the US slowly boiling to death in Iraq?

I don't know; there's some merit to this argument. But I don't think we are necessarily unaware of the problem--on the contrary I think Americans are growing more disatisfied with this war everyday. It'd be nice if some of that dissatisfaction was reflected back on the men who planned this war, but sometimes you have to take what you can get.
