And, like elsewhere, Vietnam’s leadership snubbed Obama’s arrival. What a loser, demonstrating his impotence and incompetence one-country-at-a-time.

Those poor deluded Vietnamese, hoping Obama will help them hold off China. Obama has no interest in advancing freedom, as all of our allies can testify.

I was there for a Vietnamese election a few years ago. It was for delegates to the Party Congress that would decide who was to be in the Assembly and who was to be the Chairman, etc. There were trucks driving around the cities with loud martial music playing and colorful signs urging the people to all get out and vote- for people who would not represent them or their interests in a Congress whose decrees were already decided. There were parades and bands and fireworks and the people watching all this noise just glanced once and moved on. They made sure they were not run over by the bunting clad trucks. I suspected all the show was for foreign journalists.

Of course Obama will apologize for the Vietnam War.

Vietnam votes for rubber-stamp assembly ahead of Obama visit

"Rubber Stamp Assembly", sounds a lot like our Congress.

Ahead of President Barack Obama's first visit to Vietnam, the country voted Sunday in once-every-five-year-elections for a rubber-stamp parliament whose membership has already been largely determined by the Communist Party.

Sounds like the type of parliament that Barack Obama would prefer in the United States.

More like the Obummer I know.

As everywhere else they’ve set up operations, the communists have brought nothing to Vietnam but willful corruption and stupidity.
