Lie #1

... 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.


Lie #2

And you seem to have a very poor grasp on reality.

WTF would France send arms to communist Vietnam when they had just
finished losing a war against them?



He didn't have the guts to stand up and defend our guys


OTOH he did't slash military & veteran's benefits the way Bush & Cheney
have done.

Now who really supports our troops?

BTW before you start spitting out the standard insults, you should know
that I am a veteran myself and am proud to have served my country.



It is not healthy for our country for one party to hold the reigns of power
for too long.


It has not been healthy for our country for the current wing of one
party (not all Republicans are draft-dodging Jesus-spouting ex-druggy
war profiteers). Everything Bush & Cheney have touched have been
profitable for their small group of buddies, and a train wreck for
everybody else.

OTOH it's seems pretty easy to convince everybody (or at least a slim
majority) that the economy is great and we're winning the war, and we
didn't really like all those constitutional rights we citizens used to have.
