...What matters to the People of a now Communist Vietnam is...

...what's happening to them there...

...NOW.

...Many leave that cannot stand the persecution, others simply...

...DIE from it.


...Vietnamese Actor DON DUONG...

...is being branded a Traitor to Communist Vietnam...

...simply for portraying a...

...NVA Commander who lost to...

...MEL GIBSON in...

.."WE WERE SOLDIERS"..!!!


...This one man...

...who we here could be awarding...

...and Academy Award / Golden Globe Award to this year for his outstanding portrayal...

...doesn't even know if he's.. even going to be alive then...

...to accept them.


DON DUONG is learning just what the Vietnam War was really all about ...IN PERSON as a resident of HO CHI MINH City.

PRAY 4-DON DUONG.

I don't give two sh&ts what's happening there usless there's some MIAs involved.

We projected that they would have voted commie if there had been a vote. Let em wallow in their own sh&t. It shouldn't have been our job to impose freedom on them. They wanted free of colonialism and they kicked the French out. What the hell did we think we would do?

All the things I listed before did more to destablilize us and them than the war did.

If you want to talk about today go ahead, but don't try to glorify the war we should have never fought.

...A Free People that does not care for the ..-Freedom of the One-..

Just ask Little ELIAN who now sits in a corner of CASTRO's Communist Cuba thanks to Partner of another Communist Terrorist Leader HO CHI MINH ..HILLARY RODHAM... who would be our next Presdent of the United States.

The Enemy is now Within...

and always has been.

IT COULD ALL HAPPEN HERE...

I'm really tearing up with your tyrrany of 1 sermon.

There are fewer countries under communism than anytime since 1946. If you want something serious to worry about other than the poor little boy and some Viets, there are 1.6 billion commies in China and North Korea. Those countries have nuclear weapons and missiles that can reach the US.

If you need to feel the Viet Nam war was worthwhile and honorable, knock yourself out. You really can block out history if you try hard enough. Good night!

...History is made by people who were THERE.

...I was THERE.

...Live and learn, my friend for your own sake and your Country's.

...A HLLARY RODHAM who would be President is COUNTING on people like you.

...The War has Come Home.

A major problem (perhaps the main problem) was that the NVA wanted to win much more than the ARVN. (The old you can lead a horse to water routine in action). Perhaps their morale would have been better had they been alongside us in North Vietnam kicking Commie ass.

NEVER FORGET

...The ARVN were "kicking NVA Ass" until the Enemy Within Democrats who controlled Congress killed off all U.S. funding for its resupply of:

Ammo
Rifles
Aircraft
Aircraft Parts
Helicopters
Helicopter Parts
Artillery
Artillery Shells

...just as the Communist Soviet Union handed over $6 BILLION to Communist North Vietnam for its "Final Solution" in the South.

...The rest IS History.

NEVER FORGET

You made history, live and learn.............You are a pompous and full-of-yourself aren't you?

You don't know anything about my life. Serious people don't blow their own horns and attack those whom they don't know. Only head cases do that.

As for Hillary. She seems to count on those who can't think for themselves and follow blindly. In the case of Viet Nam, that seems to apply more to you than me.

If you need to be patted on the back and tucked into bed over and over for what you did, then you should look at your self.

I made my historical factual arguement earlier and you continue to reply on emotiuonal pap.

Vietnam was a noble cause - and telling the truth to the younger generations is a noble cause, as well. We will not let the left do to today's troops and our nation what they did to you and our nation w/ Vietnam. Bless you, Ronnie.

Excerpts from Stolen Valor: How the Vietnam Generation Was Robbed of its Heros and its History by B.G. Burkett & Glenna Whitley :

Part I - Rambo and the Bogus War Heroes
Part II - Welcome Home, Babykiller
Part III - Will the Real Vietnam Vet Stand Up?
Part VI - The VVA - The Vietnam Victims of America

ALOHA 2-breakem

...Since the Biblical Interpretation of the word MEEK is defined as .."Being OPEN -&- TEACHABLE".. in telling us that...

.."The MEEK shall inherit the Earth"..

...shall we do some comparing here...?


...The real invasion of Vietnam began when a convoluted French Communism invaded HO CHI MINH's head when he was a College Student in the Paris, France of the 1920's.

...Upon his return to Vietnam Communist Leader HO CHI MINH spread his vile stuff throughout the Indo-China Peninsula of S.E. Asia by bringing insurgent leaders from Cambodia and Laos to Hanoi, Communist North Vietnam ..to personally train them in his convoluted version of Communism ...which then quickly spread throughout Indo-China.

...This eventually led to the KILLING FIELDS of Cambodia by Communists who just loved to kill with impunity.

...I will NEVER FORGET witnessing in person in Los Angeles a fleeing Madam "Dragon Lady" NGU DIEM threatening JFK in a 1993 TV News Conference with asassination for asasinating her husband President DIEM in South Vietnam just before I was to enter the U.S. Army with Vietnam in my own future. One month later JFK WAS assassinated.

...Communism was the 1st Invader of Vietnam and it still invades.

...Just ask .."WE WERE SOLDIERS".. Vietnamese Actor DON DUONG who is awaiting his undeserved punishment for being declared a TRAITOR to Communism in a formerly Free Saigon.

...Sharing here my GOD-given life experiences that He brought me to ..and then through for a reason ..serves to bring a perspective to what we as Americans are all dealing with now.

...Since I personally witnessed the time when College students HILLARY RODHAM -&- BILL CLINTON were working hard in partnership with HO CHI MINH for his Communist Victory over Freedom in South Vietnam upon my return from the Vietnam War...

...I share here real alarm now that HILLARY RODHAM is pushing just as hard for her own Victory over US in Election Year 2004.

The phrase .."GIVE ME LIBERTY or GIVE ME DEATH".. comes to mind.


And what is your committment to here..?

....Today's JUDICIAL WATCH Report Guest MICHELLE MALKIN just stated that if this country does not clean up its illegal alien problem soon...

...we can expect MORE SHOOTINGS like the D.C. Sniper Case of the last month.

...MICHELLE MALKIN also stated that organization-wise these 2 snipers DID NOT ACT ALONE, that the older sniper tried to bring in more illegal aliens from Jamica recently but was caught.

...Just WHAT was their real mission anyway...?

Your ongoing preaching only proves my point. I am very familiar with the history of Viet Nam for the last thousand years. So please stop. here's your pat on the back for doing your duty with an admonishment to be wary about critizing people's background when you don't know them.

Now take a shower, get a good meal, and let's get ready for Tuesday.

ALOHA breakem...

...Sharing one's perspective based on one's own Life Experiences so that others may see what's going on around them more clearly as all Hell is breaking loose in our country is NOT preaching, as you say, it is EDUCATING and SUPPORTING.

...It seems that in comparing us two...

...one of us is OPEN -&- TEACHABLE, the other is NOT.

...As for myself I am quite content with how I am defined.

...NEVER FORGET, your understanding of what happened long ago in Vietnam has to be augmented with what has been happening there ever since that War ended in a Land that is now controlled by Godless Communism. For the people there it is a never ending story. To ignore what's happening to them is to not be grasping the REST OF THE STORY.

...Its importance increases even more when you start seeing that some of the things that caused the Fall of Freedom there long ago...

...are happening now RIGHT HERE.

RUN SILENT, RUN DEEP is not my M.O.

Nor should it be yours.
