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.

Not a lie, look it up

"The Christmas bombings of 1972 should have taken place in 1965, before we
had filled the Hanoi Hilton with aviators shot down while carrying out the
absurd strategy of giving signals,"

" Haiphong Harbor was Hanoi's logistical lifeline for military supplies
coming into the country by sea. The mining of the harbor drastically reduced
military equipment destined for North Vietnam to be docked and unloaded."

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?

For the same reason they sold nuclear materals to Iraq and Iran, Money. You
should know that.


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.

Bush increased benefits to Vets untill last year.


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.

Lie #1
Everything Bush & Cheney have touched have been profitable for their small
group of buddies, and a train wreck for everybody else.
