" Apparantly it's a "normal" practice in that part of the world."
I have some wonderful Vietnamese friends and they are aghast that Webb is claiming that this is normal behavior for them.
A guy goes to the Playboy Mansion for parties. He is a 36 year old, handsome, bachelor. A woman is depicted saying she would like him to call her. This is obviously racist and an appeal to Southern fears of race-mixing.
A guy portrays a whole nation of people, who have produced some fine Americans, as a culture of habitual pedophiles. This is obviously not racism, because he's a Democrat. His misogynistic comments don't mean he has a problem with women, either.
Make sense to you?
I didn't mean normal in Vietnam. I meant normal in DC! ;-P
