Blue, you might want to check what party was in office and got us involved in Viet Nam. Can you say Democrats (Kennedy and Johnson). 53,000 US servicemen dead. I think the congressional majority was Democratic. It's what happens when you let congress run the war and not the Generals.
Seacrets, I'm not saying the democrats weren't to blame...just saying that we should have learned something from the experience and try not to REPEAT for heavens sake.

What ALL this boils down to is what I've been sayin' for ever...whether you choose to be a Dem or a Rep just depends on how you like to be SCREWED!!...as for Gore being a Haliburton shareholder...no it's not right any more than Lady-Bird Johnson owning huge shares of United Airlines who had contracts to fly US soldiers to their deaths in Viet Nam...I don't believe the ability to own stock in a war-based enterprise should exist...sitting politicians should not have the ability to own Haliburton stock...until such regulation becomes law, then there'll be a conflict in interests...BUT when it's all said and done, George Bush lied about WMDs (how many times?) and HE'S the one who ultimately gave the order to go to war, KNOWING the huge positive impact it would have on his bottom line...talk about redistribution of income...take it outta the taxpayers pockets and straight into his(and Cheney's, Rumsfeld's, Rice's and all the other other pigs who lined up at the trough)...and premeditating all of it from the time Cheney was inserted into Haliburtion during the Clinton years...the whole thing was PLANNED...911 was the spark...yes innocents died in the towers...but Iraq had nothing to do w/it...the guys that did are still runnin' around in the mountains between Afganistan and Pakistan snubbin' their noses at us...


...and I think Ike was still in office when the first advisors were sent to Viet Nam
