I know a number of Vietnamese folks who came here during and after the war, and they are to the person fiercely and passionately pro-America, and GOP.

We have a large Hmong/Laotian community in Green Bay, and we know that they had heroically served our country. A number of them sport "Lao Veteran" license plates on their cars.

It's no suprise that the Hmong/Lao community would support our efforts in Iraq.

No no NO!!! I have it on high authority from a very well placed war protester that we LOST the vietnam conflict, and all those people (especially Cambodia) are much happier now.

Riiiight.....LOL! Tell that to some of my Lao neighbors and that very well-placed war protester will be spending a considerable amount time in the closest trauma center.
