Let there be no mistake, no Liberal rewrite of this tragic war where over 58,000 US lives were lost.
Kennedy was a Democrat. Johnson was a Democrat. There were large Democrat majorities in both houses of Congress. This was started, approved, and escalated by Democrats.
The Liberal media, of course, associates one face with Vietnam -- Nixon. He is their scapegoat, their distraction from the real truth.
And the truth is that the Democrats are responsible for 58,000 American soldiers dead, and US status and morale irreparably demolished.
It was the Democrats, the Democrats, the Democrats.

In case anybody missed your point
IT WAS THE DEMOCRATS!I remember sitting in a bunker at Pleiku AB in 1968 and listening to AAFRTS on the radio when the news was announced that Johnson had ordered an end to the bombing of Hanoi...SAY WHAT?

Nixon made mistakes, but Vietnam wasn't one of them. The Vietnam War is all Lyndon Johnson, Bill Moyers, and Robt. S. McNamara, to name a few.
