"Breaking Away from the herd and rethinking the war"

Funny...I saw the herd trampling by the other day and it was PRO-WAR.

What a sweet story...an ex-60's liberal finally "thinks for himself" and comes to discover how pure and beautiful his country's intentions really are. Revisionist history anyone??...Looks like he wants to cleanse the historical blood off America's hands so we can dip em in again... Quoting some Cambodian refugee to make America look noble... So, what exactly did Pol Pot have to do with Vietnam? I never heard of the U.S. war against the Khmer Rouge...

Fails to mention that Diem, whom we supported, was brutally repressive and Ho Chi Minh, who we destabilized, was quite popular and probably would have won in an election...

The guy's an attorney...obviously, he enjoys defending criminals...("criminals"= US government schemers, NOT the troops who fight their wars with valor)
