True, old "tricky" Dick and Henry the K did expand the Vietnam mess into Laos and Cambodia, but this gang of clowns are remarkable. Beyond belief would have been appropriate at one time, long ago that is. What passes as "leadership" today is just so very sad.<br />To be totally honest, this old former Marine/Vietnam vet cannot find the words to describe how far the country has sunk. Every time I think we have finally hit bottom, these clowns get out the shovels and start digging ever deeper.<br />America, what a country.charlie ehlenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05584863034307604847noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12796551.post-85529757284826190842011-10-11T12:53:06.084-04:002011-10-11T12:53:06.084-04:00Got it loud and clear, EL.

I've been trying to get my head around..... ten years ago, we were attacked by Al Quaeda...(?sp)and we retaliated by launching attacks on the Taliban, in Afghanistan.<br />Then, just for good measure... we did our "shock and awe" thing against Muslims, Christians, whoever..... in Iraq..... who had done absolutely nothing at all to attack or threaten us..... And, now.... we are using robo planes to kill people indiscriminately.. wherever.... and whenever some star chamber decides it's o.k. <br /><br />We got sucked into this ten years, and billions of dollars ago..... and nobody, inside the beltway, has sense enough to figure out.... how to end it???????<br /><br />No wonder people are out in the streets..... and in the Smithsonian...... or where ever we have to go.... to get the attention of the idiots in charge.... to let them know.... "We are made as hell.... and we won't take it any more." <br /><br />Way past time.Elderladyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02268520056042293783noreply@blogger.com
