You'd rather we didnt *win* the war in Vietnam? ... I guess you share Jimmy Carter's lunacy that it was all just an "inordinate fear of Communism" and just fine and dandy to hand Vietnam over to the Communists and Cambodia to Pol Pot and let the boat people problems fall where they may ?

hmmmm.

Whatever one's position, it never justifies slandering our military like Kerry did.

No - if I had a time machine I would not fight the war period. If already engaged I would have supported the South Vietnamese with special forces and air support and when that failed (it did fail) I would cut our losses and run. Only Stalin and Hitler ordered their men to die without retreat. We lost Vietnam in the cold war. Move on down to a more defensable country or region. As it tursn out the domino theory turned out to be false.
