He always knew the mainstream would be behind his efforts. They supported him in the anti-war days. Unfortunately for him, a guy named Rush Limbaugh came along to change radio forever.
And Fox News. I have to admit they are dong a pretty good job at digging up the truth.
I lived during the time where I saw the returning Vietnam vets, honorable men, brave decorated men get spit on, slandered, accused of all manner of crap. Nothing can forgive those vermin and all their ilk for what they did. I just hope and pray they receive tenfold the humiliation and contempt they dished out.
I believe it is an American attribute, even a basic human attribute that we don't take kindly to those who cannot (or should not have to) defend themselves being treated shamefully and abused horribly.
While I did not serve, I felt most deeply the insult that was heaped upon our military personnel for honorable service in an honorable endeavor. We should have won that damn war and easily would have were it not for the socialist scum media and their syncophants in this country telling nothing but lies about the war in Vietnam.
