cynwoody: I couldn't either, until I sought help from Google democraticunderground.
cynwoody, there you go, I corrected your post. I have been monitoring DU for a few hours on this subject. You are merely parroting their collective defense, along with their weblinks.
They are now claiming that the nastiest quote, the one about the man-boy 69, is simply a greeting of the Vietnamese people in question, and that there is no sexual meaning!! (You cannot make this stuff up.) In, short it's like patting a little boy on the head to say "hello." Just as Rats will seek any means of escape from a sinking ship, they all seem to be accepting this explanation, or "debunking" as they call it. No one yet has questioned this ridiculous explanation. I can't wait to hear Webb or his spokesmouths try to explain this away.
