Perhaps they can point out what Republicans of the time rabidly opposed the move? The whole premise is dumb, of course we gave Ho weapons, with which we expected him to kill the Japanese. I doubt there was any disagreement based on political philosophy at time.

The issue was the factual error as was stated “Eisenhower started us on the road in Nam” that has been disputed and refuted!

How boring. We know that in the end, only the version of history that fits your own preconceived views is correct, Dear Leader.

Not that I think Truman was a bad president. Actually, I think Truman might well have been our best president. Democrats were actual patriotic Americans in those days, unlike now.

Without question that is the most utterly divisive, partisan, ignorant and untrue statement of the day seen on this forum.

It really is. Hateful to the extreme. I'd respond, but the moderator does not appreciate my honestly expressed opinions on such things. I have to keep it clean.

I just love the way democrats squeel like stuck donkeys when their own tactics are used against them.....

I can not recall one time in my entire life where I called Republican traitors. Misguided greedy self-centered knuckle draggers yes, but calling a fellow countryman a traitor simply because you disagree with his political views, political views that developed over centuries in this country, is a low and cowardly act, an insult of the kind that does not end well at the local bar, and it is unfortunate that you cannot do it to my face.

certain actions by todays prominent democrats are considered traitorous by some of the populace.

your last sentence sounds like a personal threat, perhaps you should edit it...

I find the man's opinion insulting to the hundreds of thousands of Democrats who gave their lives fighting for this country in it's wars. I could GAS what he thinks about it, and those who think otherwise ought to keep it to themselves or they might meet someone who has people in his family who have done just that. The idea that only Republicans love this country is one of the things that truly, truly, mess you people up. Perhaps you should brush up on the story of Joe Kennedy, or give thanks that Truman had the guts to do what he did, or perhaps look into the story of the female soldier who had both her legs blown off in Iraq and is now a US Congresswoman. What a perverted, disgusting opinion that "some of the populace" have.

Break out the panty de-buncher! Did someone say you did? Did someone in this thread call someone a traitor?
