First, McGovern lives half time in a house in my community in St. Augustine, FL. He remains an ever faithful far left Democrat and is very open about it.
Second point. Do not forget that during the Viet Nam war, while Henry Cabot Lodge was negotiating with the North in Paris, McGovern sneaked over there and was secretly meeting with the North’s representatives. The North took this to be the most confirming sign that they should not sign a peace accord and, instead, fight on because Washington was very divided and Ameriecans were more and more demonstrating ion the streets. As Lodge readied to deliver an announcement of the progress of the talks, McGovern while still in Paris called a press meeting and said there was no significant progress in these talks and that the North had further convinced him that the U.S. should simply pull out quickly and that the North Viet Nam had promised him that they had no intention of invading and taking over South Viet Nam.
There is a lot of blood on McGovern’s hands.
Thanks for reminding us of McGovern’s traitorous behavior in Vietnam. Over the years, I have shocked many liberal friends by stating unequivocally that, even if I knew then what I now know about Richard Nixon, I would readily vote again for Nixon over McGovern.
He was a traitorous POS socialist way back then...
Odds are he’s still a traitorous POS socialist now.
Old commies never die; they just get old and think “the right people STILL aren’t in charge”.
Same guy who passionately pleaded that ‘”the greatest gift we could give VIet Nam was peace” and then two years later took to the Senate floor to call for the bombing of Cambodia after the destabilization accelerated by our withdrawl from the region. He’s just older and in worse health now with a grandson trying to adopt his surname for his own launch into politics...
