A republican was CIC in 1974 when the Rat House of Representatives pulled the plug on financial support to our South Vietnamese allies.

The Rats in the House took the position then that American military assistance to the South Vietnamese government was "fueling the war" and that withdrawing our support would in fact help end the conflict.

Sound familiar?

I'm praying to God this won't happen, and I don't think it will, because in 1974, you had a VERY weak Republican President and a HUGE D majority in both houses of Congress. None of that is so now.

I do worry that Republicans will go wobbly now though, especially with weirdos like the supposedly Conservative Walter Jones.
