“...Too busy at Camp David worrying about what time the cartoons come on.”

Then after cartoons it’s ice cream time! Then nappy time.

I am not sure the two are comparable.

Yes we did not win in Southern Vietnam, but Vietnam just wanted to unify their country. Sure lots of Americans looked at what happened, and concluded the country was an enemy. I personally think longer-term the country is rapidly moving toward America once again, and this is positive.

Afghanistan seems more likely to raise tensions internationally, and maybe with America. This is much different than Vietnam.

We will have to wait and see, but it seems at least within possibity, that we may at some point face from Afghanistan, more opposition than what we faced from Vietnam.

Lots of Americans seem to have walked away from Vietnam with the feeling that the counry is the enemy. They do not appear to me, to be a true threat to America. They just do not.

I am not yet willing to say the same about the Taliban, at the moment.

They are not the same.

(Or at least they do not appear to be, to me)

At least not yet.

At least the Communists in Vietnam, mainly because Ho Chi Minh croaked long before the end of the war, quickly found out that Communism didn’t work, and pretty much abandoned it.

And thankfully, their troops moved into Cambodia and got rid of Pol Pot and the Khmer Rouge regime. Plus they are no friends of the ChiComs.

What will be interesting to see is what relations will be between Afghanistan and Iran. The Taliban and the Iranians don’t particularly get along with each other.

Don’t think for one minute Ho Chi Minh lacks support here.

He truly seems to be the single person in the entire world, just plain revered.

For real. Yes I believe the Vietnamese like lots of things about America, but don’t suspect for one minute they are anti-Ho Chi Minh.

Not at all.

They positively revere Ho Chi Minh.

Really.

My understanding it's more for defeating the French than the US. But it's kind of like Stalin with Russians, they can revered Stalin for what he did in WWII without necessarily being fans of Communism.

Yes. Just observing the guy has enormous support here.

Almost the single guy, most honored.

Of anyone. He is it. I don’t think it is remotely anti-American (at least that I can see) it is just they really love the guy.

Sloe Joe, The Hoe, Ms. Pelosi, Mr. Schumer, ALL DEMOCRATS:

YOU ARE A TOTAL ABJECT FAILURE!

Please do the right thing: ADMIT YOU STOLE THE 2020 ELECTION!

ALLOW PRESIDENT TRUMP TO RE-ASSUME COMMAND OF THE US GOVERNMENT!

AND, THEN, PACK YOUR BAGS AND SLINK OUT OF (I.E. DESERT) WASHINGTON, DC!

PUT THE ADULTS IN CHARGE AND LEAVE US ALONE!
