RI Bills Fan Posted December 2, 2005 Share Posted December 2, 2005 Gee, Stuck old boy, why didn't you mention this part of the article? "But he clears President Johnson and his ministers of any blame. They were only shown intelligence supporting the claim of an attack, not a wealth of contradictory material, he says." Could it be that you are guilty of twisting the facts to support your own political views? Nah, I didn't think so, either... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RI Bills Fan Posted December 2, 2005 Share Posted December 2, 2005 Actually this paragraph tells me all I need to know. "The US government is said to have fought the declassification of the documents over fears of comparisons with the handling of Iraq, says the BBC's defence and security correspondent Rob Watson." Stuck, old bean, if the current administration thought they could smear a long dead Democrat with these revelations, they would have been trumpeted from the rooftops. Obviously they don't, because they've been rather mum on the subject, haven't they? But then again, you know how much they love hearing the names Iraq and Viet-Nam in the same sentence.

Now, Scott Farkus, he probably never got over his humiliation. And I wonder what became of Grover Dill, his crummy little toadie? This is all really going to confuse CTM I'm afraid.

ExiledInIllinois Posted December 4, 2005 Share Posted December 4, 2005 Now see if they would have redistricted Vietnam like they are Texas we never would have had communism problems. 518507[/snapback] No... NO, NO. We would have had worse problems! I can just see it now... Redistricting all over the "Nam"... Picking up commies in Hanoi, then winding ever so slightly down the Ho Chi Minh trail to pick up those sneeky little commies near Saigon. Who knows? That might even cause them to change the name from Saigon to Ho Chi Minh City someday! So, IMO, I have to respectfully disagree with you VA.
