I served three tours in Southeast Asia, two on the Thailand-Laos border and one in an airborne unit based in Okinawa (never in any real danger as far as I know). It seems to me to me that some people have forgotten that we are considering turning our government over to the same people who are responsible for the existence of the Soviet Republic of Vietnam in order to punish RINO's and others for not being conservative or conservative enough.

Who is it that we're turning power over to that were responsible for the horrible decision making process that was the Vietnam War? Most of the people who called shots back then are dead now, or out of government/military, and most of them were democrats. It was the kennedy then johnson administrations that started the war after all, and started it on a blatant lie. The Turner Joy never having been fired on by the North Vietnamese, but Johnson got on nation wide TV and claimed it was anyway, to turn it into a war big war for his Brown and Root buddies. I don't see how any of the conservatives currently leading the conservative movement can at all be blamed for the disaster that was Vietnam. I'm not sure what you mean.
