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. |

I wasn't attributing the immoral war in SE Asia to any particular politicians, but, if you were a student of history, you would know that the rationale was formulated during the Eisenhower administration, as part of what became the SEATO treaty. -- Want to discuss recreational boating and fishing in a forum where personal insults are not allowed? http://groups.google.com/group/rec-boating-fishing |

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. |
