Kerry, of course, was right in the larger sense. The war was a waste of lives and inflicted untold misery on this country and on Vietnam. Our attitude toward the Vietnamese, the people for whom we were presumably fighting, was uniformly contemptuous. If we did not kill them indiscriminately, we ruined their country with bombing and the moral degradation that occupying armies always inflict.

I am speechless at that. Listen to O'Neill when he was on Cavett's TV program. The author of this piece could not be more wrong, but that parpagraph clarifies the contrast in world views between Kerry/supporters & everybody else.

Bump!

That's it. It is a conflict of world views.

Also, I resent Vietnam being referred to as "Nixon's War" or as a "Republican War."

Kennedy started it, Johnson mismanaged it, Nixon ended it.

Besides, the Democrats controlled both the House and the Senate during the war's duration.
