Meanwhile, NPR is still adhering to the party line and broadcasting 'human interest' Vietnamese refugee stories from Oakland, CA.:Why I left Vietnam -- the US came and made my life unbearable.

and it wasnt peasant guerillas we were fighting, it was combat hardened nva regulars.

Make that very well trained and equipped combat hardened NVA.

TGYC,
Thanks for the ping. I think the Kerry and Fonda pics will show up at the WHCD on Saturday. I'll ask the WHC about sKerry's SF 180 and welcome Barberella.

AR,
I'll ask the assmebled WHC "Is it Safe?"

Exactly. And Diem cancelled the elections because everyone felt that Ho (who lived in Boston for a while) would win. We supported him in that decision until we deposed him under Kennedy who totally misread the will of the Vietnamese in both the north and the south.

In case my link doesn't work, I found it on this page, at the top right, same photo.

heck, we've seen how the anti-everything American nuts here at home have been largely marginalized...

perhaps we will eventually chalk up Vietnam as an anomoly, thanks to patriotic Americans using the internet as a modern day Committees of Correspondence, so to speak, to communicate and shoot down their arguments and appearances.

I know here in Syracuse, NY...we've successfully stolen the thunder of the loonie left for over 2 yrs now. They don't get any media attention anymore.
