Wave Vest
how does it feel to lay your life for a hollow lie?
Bush said WMD, Powell waving vials at the UN. All lies, a charade. How does it feel when you see soldiers die for a politiican, for money, for oil and for vested interests very far from freedom, equality and peace?
You would think that we had learned our lesson in Vietnam. I am a Vietnam vet. I cringed when Bush and Chaney got elected. Bush managed to avoid Vietnam by joining the National Guard. This was the escape used by all the spoiled rich kids at the time. During his campaign, he touted his National Guard record as if he was some kind of patriot, when in fact he was a rich kid dodging the draft.
I can tell you from my experience 35 years ago that it makes you quite angry when your life is placed in jeopardy for a political agenda. It makes you twice as angry when 35 years later your son's life is placed in jeopardy for the same reason.
We had no business being involved in Vietnam, just as we had no business going into Iraq. And being led into Iraq by a man with the character of Bush, a coward, is even more irritating.
