The Preppies' Boytoys Tell You Lies to Make Treason Seem Intellectually and Morally SuperiorBoat People Are Chickenhawks
From my real-life experience and not warm and fuzzy elitist theory, the South Vietnamese are cowards, crooks, and collaborators. Despite what Chickenhawks and anti-GI pacifist snobs tell you, that's the main reason we lost the war. Because of their treason, which cost 60,000 lives of the best and bravest of Americans born in the working class, these government-financed parasites never should have been let into our country. Only in Diploma Dumbo English does deserter mean "refugee."
"lost the war"? We didn't lose the war....we quit the war because the brass didn't have the balls to win it. After the second Tet, we could have done a hard run straight up Highway 1 to Hanoi and murdered their entire government....but we didn't...they were terrified of the chinese and the russians who would die with all the rest. Fact of the matter is neither would have intervened knowing we'd launch on them if they did....China had no accurate ICBMs until Clinton had Loral give them our telemetry secrets for campaign money, and Russia? they weren't about to have a nuclear exchange with us over north vietnam. Westmoreland didn't know how to win that war or wasn't allowed to...either way, he should have been relieved of his command immediately after the second half of the Tet offensive was torn apart.
All narratives told to you about Vietnam are composed by unpatriotic sissies who ran away to college to avoid being drafted. They were then assigned by the Chickenhawk plutocrats to run the media, education, business, and government as thanks for their service.
