While there were plenty of us conservatives who despised Ellsberg and wanted to string him up, I think history will fully vindicate him if it hasn't already. Conservatives who continue to cling to the "domino theory" and believe that "we could have won if only the media had painted the war more positively" should consider, even at this late date, reassessing their position in light of what's been revealed in recent years.

I think ample information, including the bio of the Secretary of Defense at the time, Robert McNamara, and the comments of the top North Vietnamese general at the time, General Giap, totally disagree with you. You are either woefully uninformed or are purposely painting a false picture. Which?
