From HS-
"Well, the South Vietnamize Army was taking over combat functions in Vietnam, and may have prevailed ultimately."
Interesting mix of fact, the first part, and pure right wing revisionist whimsy, the second part...
An extension of the usual "We could have won!" delusion that drives the bitterness of some Vietnam vets.
Of course we could have won, but only by engaging in the kind of mass murder that would have made Saddam Hussein blanche... The American people simply won't do it, won't prosecute war at that level of intensity unless actually attacked beforehand.
All of which has diddly-squat to do with the topic at hand.
Guess I'll check the other relevant thread, where the discussion concerns the Bushies forcing the publisher to quit printing "Favorite Son"- Don't suppose the fanbois would care to address that in the context of this topic, after all the raving and name-calling?
