All the Vietnam War 'needed' to win was more troops too (what BS)

[protect freedom impeach bush now]

The mistakes of the past US military occupation follies return
with a vengeance.

ALL the fricken talking heads think "more troops" is THE ANSWER to all
the troubles in Iraq.

What a bunch of pure CRAP !

Didnt work in Vietnam. Will NOT work now.
ALL it does it get 1000s of more civilians and soldiers DEAD !

1. We could have won with more troops!

If the ruling class had impressed nearly every male in the country into slavery and shipped them to Vietnam, rather than just the small portion we did put into slavery, we could have won. Of course, that would have been impossible for even the ruling class to do without ending-up with a revolution.

2. Great Great Great Post-Well it's 1,2,3, what are we fightin' for

"It's important that we withhold judgment before all the facts are in," said Abraham.
