    The strategy from the very beginning was totally fucking stupid and DOOMED us throughout.

    Wonder if things would have been any different if JFK never dies. Probably not but whatever

    Give Ken Burns all the awards

    Under Kennedy it went from 600 American “advisers” over there to almost 6000. So I don’t think Kennedy would have done anything different.

    PBS? Can you sound anymore old, rich, and white?

    NPR

    iDawg, wherever the fuck he is, nailed NPR when he described it's sole purpose as letting us know that everything we know is wrong, during a pod with Race, once.

    Yes, I was the only listener, apparently.

    Too young, but a bunch of of neighbors and cousins went. I got to work and go to school with a bunch of Amer-Asian kids who's GI dads made it with South V women. Lots of boat kids also. Good peeps, mostly. Hard working. Many staunchly Cathlolic.

    Far too enamored with Euro exhaust systems on their Hondas, though. Really, really retarded in that sense.

    Some hilarious free Pub for Slick Willie and Dubya in Episode 4. They are discussing draft dodgers and rich young white guys who got to serve in the National Guard. There is a quick shot of a college photo of Clinton followed by GW in the air national guard. Neither are mentioned by name.
