>>Ann did say that to a Vietnam vet. A founder of Vietnam Veterans Against the War, whos name escapes me at the moment.He was a disabled vet in fact but not from combat, from an accident (possibly of his own making) while still in service. He was a John Kerry type, trashed the country, the troops, the war etc. then was highly irrate that she called him on it and trotted out his service record and injuries, much like the Jersey girls in proclaiming you cant question me, Ive suffered tragedy.<<

Actually the echange was with this Viet Vet who made the absurd claim that 90% of all land-mine casualties were from U.S. made land-mines .
(there was a report that claimed that most of the Viet Cong land-mines used parts from salvaged from Americans weapons and ordinances)

After he made that remark, Ann said: " with guys like you, no wonder we lost the Viet Nam War"

Kind of justified if any Vet makes a stupid and erroneous statement like he did !

Thats right and now I remember DUH! CRS is getting worse :) Most recently read about him, Bobby Muller, on FreeRepublic and it reminded me of some things I had forgotten about him. See article posted 6/10/06 titled Over The Top
