I suppose in what passes for your mind, you think those million
non-combatant asians deserved to die, and that we were justified in
invading vietnam, cambodia and thailand and waging war there.

Decisions that were initially made by well known liberal Democrat,
John Fitzgerald Kennedy, and further reinforced by another well known
Democrat named Lyndon Baines Johnson.

Or have you forgotten those facts?

I guess it seemed like a good idea at the time.

So much for your war mongering conservatives theory.

Quite frankly I can't see why you and Tim would even engage Krause in
such a conversation, knowing how he feels about military and honor..
Just sayin'..

The irony of our friend's holier than thou attitude was just a little
too rich to let it go.

Now he's blaming Eisenhower for Vietnam which is amusing to say the
least.

Really, W'hine? Where did I blame Eisenhower for the Vietnam debacle? I
did state the SEATO treaty later gave us an excuse for Vietnam, and that
that treaty came about mainly because of the efforts of the Eisenhower
administration. The key player was Dulles, Eisenhower's secretary of state.

That war was possibly the most shameful in U.S. history up to that point.

What I really find amusing is that Wayne and a couple others are very
quick to filter little ole me out, but they don't have any problem
sparing with you for years. I think they're threatened by me more than
by you. I wonder why?

Why?

Harry is not a parrot.

He actually has some sense, somewhere. He's just usually headed in the
wrong direction, and his blatant hypocrisy is remarkable - thus
earning remarks.

He is, however, easily ignorable. And again...

...Harry is not a parrot.


Yet, you can't ignore him or me for that matter. I think you're just a
small-minded guy with lots of time on his hands.


Agreed, harry is not a parrot, insults parrots.

Polly want a cracker?


I get it. You're playing the keep-up-with-stupid game. The only
problem is that you're keeping up with yourself.
