Speaking as one who served in RVN and who grew up in the era of the Viet Nam War I clearly remember JFK/LBJ and the cadre of the "Nations Best and Brightest" who ran Camelot and the VN War.
Because they thought of themselves as the "Best and Brightest" in the country, they could not think of themselves as being wrong in anything they did.
McNamara and the DC Politico's micromanaged the VN war and could not conceive that it was possible that the military knew how to win the war.
We lost in Viet Nam because of McNamara and LBJ, aided and abetted by the likes of John Kerry and Jane Fonda and their hangers on.
To say I am still pi**ed after all these years about how the veterans and the whole country were treated and sold down the river by these communist sympathizers would be an understatement.

Ditto that. And I also weep for the good people of S.E. Asia who were condemned to three decades hell under the Commie thugs who Fonda and her tribe of useful idiots championed.

Absolutely true - and NEVER to be reported by the dominant media.
McNamara, and JFK and LBJ were the definition of arrogance.
