BUSH/CHENEY's immediate answer to the Attacks of 911 was to start bringing Freedom to the oppressed peoples & cultures of the world as America's own best self protection against future terrorist attacks here at home.

California State Assemblyman Van Tran is the 1st Vietnamese-American to take office as a State Legislator in United States History, being sworn in on December 6, 2004.

As a direct result of a Democrat-controlled U.S. Congress cutting off of funds for the then Free South Vietnamese to continue fighting for their own Freedom ...a 10 year old Cub Scout named Van Tran and his family had to quickly board an American C-130 Air Transport plane bound for Freedom abroad ...six days before the Fall of Saigon in April 1975. He spoke just 2 words of English at the time.

Please tell me those two words weren't "Jane Fonda".

It does take a clear-thinking person from another country to show how big a fool Dean is and why.

Basically it is bring down Bush at ALL costs.

I just met with a delagation from Iraq here where I live ~

I wonder what Dean would have said to them.

I think that's pretty much the definition of a b****-slap, and Assemblyman Tran is certainly the one to deliver it. And it was a very well-deserved one.

Bravo! Assemblyman Tran.

“Dean’s comments are irresponsible and revisionist,” said California Assemblyman Van Tran (R-Costa Mesa), the first Vietnamese-American legislator in America. “Instead of undermining our war effort, Dean should focus on joining the rest of Americans in supporting our troops.”

BUMP!

History tends to repeat itself, especially when the post-adolescent 1960s spoiled brat protest generation that lost the Vietnam War for us is now calling the shots in the War on Terrorism.

Some citizens do their duty in selflessly sacrificing on behalf of the FREEDOM of others in this new time of war.

Some don't:
