Isn’t that exactly what JFK did at the beginning of the Vietnam Nam debacle? Talk about being cursed to repeat history!
The only difference is that the lap-dogs in the MSM will tell us what a great thing the "Smartest Man ever to hold the office of President" has done here.
Yeah sure, but it didn't matter because Uncle Walter helped the Democrats dump 100% of the blame on Nixon and the Republicans and then rode that hobby horse to power for the next thirty years.
They'll do the same this time, too.
“Isn’t that exactly what JFK did at the beginning of the Vietnam Nam debacle?”
Actually, we were there acting as ‘advisors’ prior to JFK, but you are right. It’s looking more and more like that every minute.
How about being consistant in current events? Obama is demanding that Maliki be more inclusive if he wants help. At the same time he's supporting Nazi thugs in Kiev who don't have any interest whatsoever about being inclusive for ethnic Russians in Ukraine.
And MORE regime change?? It hasn't worked real well anywhere. Now's a chance to actually lay down some specific conditions if Maliki gets support. Otherwise, ISIS will end up being fully entrenched in Sunni areas.
what a mess
Advisers had been in Vietnam for many years before JFK, in fact even in the 1940s, and it is part of what Army Special Forces does and is doing all over the globe, it was the 16,000 troops that he sent in, that was JFK’s change.
