Quotes are helpful but hardly needed. North Vietnam in effect surrendered at the peace talks. The war was not "lost" until after Nixon resigned, the DEMOCRAT Congress refused President Ford's urgent request for supplies for our allies, and the North Vietnamese launched a tank assault in plain vioation of the peace agreement.

Just think how truly wrong America was, via its liberal democrat nuts, to deny our allies support so they could defend themselves against a communist ofensive. The liberals are not happy unless friends of America are killed, imprisoned, and their countries turned into enemies. That is how insane the left is.

Well put, indeed.

The sheer moxie and gall of liberals (in the light of the facts as you outlined them in your post) to trot out John F. Kennedy as a model Democrat, invoking his Inaugural Address:

"Let the word go forth from this time and place, to friend and foe alike, that the torch has been passed to a new generation of Americans—born in this century, tempered by war, disciplined by a hard and bitter peace, proud of our ancient heritage—and unwilling to witness or permit the slow undoing of those human rights to which this Nation has always been committed, and to which we are committed today at home and around the world.

Let every nation know, whether it wishes us well or ill, that we shall pay any price, bear any burden, meet any hardship, support any friend, oppose any foe, in order to assure the survival and the success of liberty."

To hear this, mouthed by people like Ted Kennedy or Nancy Pelosi, and other liberals who nod in approval, is simply maddening given the facts.
