This is a reprise of our Sight Gag of February 17, 2008. If our word processor was working properly the title would read:

“Iraq Afghanistan v. Vietnam – ‘Déjà vu All Over Again’ (Again).”

THEN

“Sight Gags” is our weekly nod to the ironic and carnivalesque in a vibrant democratic public culture.  We typically will not comment beyond offering an identifying label, leaving the images to “speak” for themselves as much as possible.  Of course, we invite you to comment … and to send us images that you think capture the carnival of contemporary democratic public culture.
