Your ignorance about the circumstances surrounding the Viet Nam war is simply astounding.......
If every last U.S. soldier was a blind, ignorant, jingoistic right-wing lemming such as yourself it would not have made one f**king iota of difference in the outcome of the war. Your assertion that John Kerry's, (or anyone else's), protesting against the war caused the outcome is just intellectually facile to a dishonest degree.
I apologise for getting so fired up, but I remember what it was like seeing the body count on the evening news every night and being lied to by our leaders while young Americans were slaughtered for a misguided policy.
I've told the story before of one of my closest friends, (he is like my brother), who was a Marine in Viet Nam during Tet/'69-'70, he can tell you stories of having to
push SVN troops off of the frikkin' helicopter during troop movements!
If you don't understand that statement, start by renting "Fog of War" at Blockbuster. I'll introduce you to my "Bro" next time he's in town, (I know where to find you),
, you can tell him how Kerry lost the war. He is a Kerry supporter, and I guarantee that you will be looking upward from a standing position and saying "Sir" a lot.
