NOTE: I did a series of these stories about 6 years ago. Some of them might be worth bringing back since the leftist a-hoes are attacking our commander in chief. They don't know how to handle a real commander in chief who is loved by the troops.
The following comes from Lt. Col. Tom McKenney (Ret), a Vietnam hero who was a guest on the DFU RADIO HOUR some months back. His chapter in the CLINTON CHRONICLES BOOK was very well named --- "The Unthinkable Commander in Chief.:
=================================================
Quite typically, during the 1992 presidential campaign, Bill Clinton denied any connection with the "anti-war" movement which had occured during the Vietnam War. When confronted with evidence that he had indeed participated in demonstrations where coffins were carried and the American flag burned, he admitted that he may have attended one or two, but only as a spectator on the fringes to see what they were like.
The truth is quite different, although difficult to obtain. Clinton, of course, simply denies it---this being his modus operandi when confronted with unflattering truth. Now that he is President, sources for the truth are even more reluctant to speak out, making the facts more difficult to obtain.
His old friend, pro-communist priest, Richard McSorley, has been quite candid about Bill's activism in the 60's and 70's. While disclosing that Clinton organized and led demonstrations in England in 1969, Father McSorley still said that Bill would be foolish to admit all that he had done.
Although it is difficult to unearth facts about Clinton's pro-communist activism, enough can be documented to paint a clear picture of a zealous young socialist with dreams of rapid social progress," one driven by a desire to radically change his country along Marxist lines. We also see one who participated in Group 68 (a Soviet-sponsored, pro-communist group in London), who helped at Martha's Vineyard to plan the 1969 October moratorium and the November march on Washington, who actually organized at least two such demonstrations in England in 1969, and who disappeared behind the Iron Curtain at a time when the Soviet bloc funded and directed the North Vietnamese/Vietcong enemy with which his country was locked in deadly combat. A clear picture of a young leftist zealot emerges, one who moved in radical circles and whose closest friends were leftist activists and draft dodgers.
One key matter that must be made clear at this jpoint, one deliberately clouded by the major American news media is that those "anti-war" demonstrations were actually "anti-American" demonstrations. While many of the participants were sincerely working for peace and an end to the war, the events themselves were clearly anti-American and treasonous, and became progressively so as the war wore on. Those demonstrators weren't simply urging a quick end to the war---there were screaming for communist victory and American defeat.
Let's ask ourselves some questions. Whose buildings did they blocade and throw red paint and pig blood on? It was always the American buildings, never communist-bloc embassies or consulates. Whose flag did they invaribly burn? The American flag. Yet, whose flag did they wave triumphantly and carry proudly and defiantly in their parades and demonstrations? You guessed it---the enemy's flag!
While in the early days the "peace" activists chanted such foolish but idealistic slogans as "Make love, not war," their chants and speeches became increasingly anti-American and pro-North Vietnam. The most familiar cry by the late 60's and early 70's was "Ho Ho, Ho Chi Minh, the NVA are gonna win!" Their speeches screamed for defeat of the American forces and for the triumph of the enemy.
I think it should be obvious to even the most skeptical person that this was not an anti-war movement; it was an anti-American one, and it was unquestionably treasonous. Had Bill Clinton, Jane Fonda, Tom Hayden, Abbie Hoffman and their friends done these things during World War II, they would have, at the very least, been imprisoned.
In early 1969, John Gardner (later the founder of Common Cause) organized a closed-door weekend retreat on Martha's Vineyard (an island off the Massachusetts coast) for forty handpicked, young, leftist zealots, all of whom had worked in the Robert Kennedy and Eugene McCarthy presidential campaigns. During the weekend, plans were made for the National Moratorium of October 15 and the march on Washington of November 15, the largest ever held.
When asked during his presidential campaign about his being involved, Clinton said that he took no part; yet the facts again say otherwise. His old friend and fellow radical, homosexual activist David Mixner (who from homosexual sources raised $3.5 million for Cllinton's presidential campaign) said that Clinton was present at the Martha's Vineyard planning session, and that during the summer of 1969 Bill "volunteered his time and effort to assist us in planning for the moratorium and the march on Washington." Another long time friend of Bill's, leftist Sam Brown, agrees with Mixner.
Radio Hanoi enthusiastically praised both the moratorium and the Washington march. The direct and close relationship between the communist enemy and the American activists is clearly illustrated by the fact that on October 14, 1969, the day before the October moratorium, the activists received a personal message from North Vietnamese Premier Pham Van Dong, praising them and encouraging them for their work in "our people's patriotic struggle."
Then, during the November march on Washington, the American flag flying in front of the Justice Department was torn down and the enemy's flag was raised in its place. Is this just anti-war? No, it is clearly anti-American.
Been there, done that
It continues to astound and appall me that the American public refuses to acknowledge what's always been in front of their faces...that Bill Clinton is a Communist agent!
He was recruited at Oxford, indoctrinated in Soviet Russia, and released back into America with all the help that the Communist front groups could give him to gain power.
He committed treason for Soviet Russia in full view. As the Communists lost power in Russia, his control was passed to Communist China for which he continued to commit treason. And whenever he could, he helped out his other Marxist buddies around the world, most notably, Castro.
And he continues to commit treason every day by aiding and abbetting our country's enemies.
It's almost a miracle that our Republic survived this treasonous scum's tenure.
