This realy pisses me off!
How dare a US President commit troops WITHOUT the expressed purpose of overwhelming the enemy.
I think of the young lives lost, the friends incinerated, and the injuries and trauma that I/we are still coping with today. My only hope is that Johnson and McNamara are burning in hell!! For they have the blood of a lot of good boys on their hands.

Check the history of the billions pumped into the infamous Viet Nam era "Military-Industrial Complex."

We're seeing it again.

DUH! Go to the secret wars in Laos & Cambodia with the all-too-familiar heroin connection.

Viet Nam was about off-shore oil.

My only hope is that Johnson and McNamara are burning in hell!!

I believe McNamara is still alive and heads the socialist world band that distributes money to developing countries.
