NEVER FORGET ping!

The greatest danger to the United States at this moment are those fools and knaves who would cripple both the national defense and efforts to conduct an effective foreign policy. Always must we recall that, in times of war, there are but two parties: traitors and patriots, and that we already know what side we are on.

We must never forget the real reason why Vietnam was lost: the machinations of domestic subversives who stabbed real Americans, and America’s allies in Indochina, in the back. It was because of them that the war was lost and those untold millions were consigned to murder and slavery under Communism. We must never forget because, unless we are very careful, they will work to make it happen once again.

They're working at trying to make this happen again. They'd love to see the bloodshed that would result. The left only pretends to be humanitarian, but actually, they love brutality and mass murder. It's the only way they can feel good about themselves. Poor, weak, sick individuals.

"We must never forget the real reason why Vietnam was lost: the machinations of domestic subversives who stabbed real Americans, and America’s allies in Indochina, in the back."

The author, with an excellent op/ed, has it almost right. However, IMHO, "the machinations of domestic subversives" were only the catalyst for our loss in Viet Nam. The real reason was that many more millions of Americans bought into the crap and stabbed those of us who served, faithfully, in the back.

It broke my heart then and I am prepared to have it broken again. My real fear is for the new American centurions and patriotic heroes in service to their country today.

It is up to us, who served an uncaring and oft undeserving nation once before, to make sure the men and women serving today are not subjugated to the same treatment when they come home this time.

If, in four years, large numbers of American Soldiers are still fighting and dieing in Iraq, you will see the machinations of domestic subversives opposing this war too.

General Thi believes that the media played a major role in the final downfall of South Vietnam. He quotes North Vietnam General Vo Nguyen Giap as stating in a French TV broadcast that Giap’s “most important guerrilla during the Vietnam War was the American press.’’

There are two enemies right now: the enemy without and the enemy within. America’s external enemies are not defeated, but they are weakened and on the defensive. The greatest danger to the United States at this moment are those fools and knaves who would cripple both the national defense and efforts to conduct an effective foreign policy. Always must we recall that, in times of war, there are but two parties: traitors and patriots, and that we already know what side we are on

Bears repeating.

NEVER FORGET


...As our best Self-Defense against future Terrorist Attacks in a new Century of FREEDOM...

...President BUSH has promised, during his Presidency, FREEDOM's Return to:

Communist Vietnam
Communist Cuba
Communist North Korea


Those who fought here on the Side of our Terrorist Enemy HO CHI MINH during the Vietnam War by fooling us into leaving the Free of South Vietnam behind to their fate at the hands of invading Communist Bullies ...just can't stand it =

HILLARY RODHAM
BILL CLINTON
JOHN F. KERRY
WALTER CRONKITE


CRONKITE = An Anti-U.S. Internatinalist who called for our Southern States to secede from our Union at a London World Conference in our Election Year 2000.

CRONKITE = An Anti-U.S. Internationalist who is now 2004 Presidential Candidate HILLARY RODHAM's top media Defensive Linebacker

CRONKITE = An Anti-U.S. Internationalist who now has the Blood of millions of poor S.E. Asian Souls just dripping from his Sleeves . . . . . (drips)

NEVER FORGET

BILL CLINTON = Took Communist Funding for his Anti-U.S. Demonstrations outside our London U.S. Embassy ...as an Oxford University Student... while traveling thru a Communist Soviet Union that was also funding our Terrorist Enemy HO CHI MINH's shooting at us in Vietnam.

HILLARY RODHAM = Publically supported our Terrorist Enemy HO CHI MINH's Communist Battle against FREEDOM and US for a then Free South Vietnam during the Vietnam War.

JOHN F. KERRY = Called us Vietnam Freedom-Fighters the exact same thing our Terrorist Enemy HO CHI MINH was calling us before the very South Vietnam People whose FREEDOM we were then fighting for.


HILLARY RODHAM-BILL CLINTON = Refused 3 Offers from the Sudan during the 1990's to extradite our Terrorist Enemy OSAMA bin LADEN to a U.S. Trial that would have prevented the Attacks on America on September 21, 2001.


The Enemy is now Within...
and always has been.
