And a very high percentage of these liberals, like me, are decorated
Vietnam era vets who really know what it was like to be in the service, a
concept lost to "leaders" like AWOL bush, "had-better-things-to-do"
Cheney, Rumsfeld, Wolfowitz and the rest of these chickenhawks who think
nothing of sending our troops into battle to enrich themselves and their
friends.

Where were you from 1962 to 1972? Defending your country or shooting off
your mouth like you are today?

With respect Sir: I was here during those years and I heard all the
rhetoric and saw what was being done. The horrible waste of men who died
while the generals were forced to fight a war micromanaged by President
Johnson. I remember when President Nixon was elected, he mined the harbors
in N. Vietnam to keep arms from our allies (France, Germany, Russia and
England) from being delivered to Vietnam. This killed no one and saved our
soldiers lives. WHY didn't Johnson do that???????

He didn't have the guts to stand up and defend our guys, they were cannon
fodder to him. He was more concerned with world opinion. A Kerry, Clinton
or liberal viewpoint. There are Democrats, many of them who are NOT of this
mind set but they would never get the nomination in the current Democrat
party.

It is not healthy for our country for one party to hold the reigns of power
for too long. We, all of us need to do something to change the leadership
of the Democrat party or this will become a one party country and we are
headed down the tubes. Belittling the Republicans won't do it, changing the
democrat party to reflect the values of the red states (who are mainly
democrat anyway) is the way to go.
