That is fine, handjobs opinion matters not to me. When and if they post something with intelligence and that is well thought out and not an insult; that is when a sensible rebuttal is warranted.
if you've never encountered handjob be warned that if you contradict him, you are automatically a paid disinformation agent for the illuminati...Our corrupt school system. Do you have other scape goats in your bag of bullshit.
yeah thats one more thing our corrupt school system has brainwashed the american people on that JFK got us into vietnam when in reality,he inherited vietnam from Eisenhower.JFK did not give us Vietnam. We learned a few years ago from declassified docs that JFK intended to withdraw from Vietnam after the '64 election.
JFK greatly boosted military spending, pushed for an enormous tax cut, tried to impose some sanity on our currency, and held federal spending to its smallest rate of increase since that time, among other good things.
Was JFK Bad for America?
Towards the end of his presidency Ike drew up plans for covert wars to take place in vietnam that were nearly implemented.Kennedy inherited Eisenhowers policys and resisted the military brass to carry out those plans. as you said,he intended to withdraw from vietnam after the 64 election.
after he was assassinated though Lyndon Johnson reversed his policys and implemented Eisenhowers covert policys. this was all declassified in documents from the Eisenhower.Kennedy and Johnson administrations.
this is a great book on it everyone should read.
American Tragedy is the first book to draw on complete official documentation to tell the full story of how we became involved in Vietnam--and the story it tells decisively challenges widely held assumptions about the roles of Eisenhower, Kennedy, and Johnson. Using an enormous range of source materials from these administrations, Kaiser shows how the policies that led to the war were developed during Eisenhower's tenure and nearly implemented in the closing days of his administration in response to a crisis in Laos; how Kennedy immediately reversed course on Laos and refused for three years to follow recommendations for military action in Southeast Asia; and how Eisenhower's policies reemerged in the military intervention mounted by the Johnson administration.
