Helicopters In Vietnam

Tulsi Gabbard is like many of us who have left the Democrat Party. We believed the propaganda and thought that the party had changed and was no longer embued with racism and warmongering. Some of us even thought that the Vietnam War was created by Republicans and not Democrats. Nothing could be further from the truth.

For so-called Progressives, “Lyndon Johnson could have been remembered as one of the most outstanding of American presidents. His Great Society programs to tackle poverty and the 1964 Civil Rights Act and 1965 Voting Rights Act were socially progressive measures carried out during a period of economic expansion and increased prosperity. Instead his time in office is mostly associated with deepening American involvement in the war in Vietnam which ultimately proved futile. Its legacy was 58,220 American soldiers dead, a huge drain on the nation’s finances, social polarisation and the tarnishing of the reputation of the United States.” Open History Society

What is interesting is that, depending on your measuring stick, those programs have been an utter failure. Of importance here is that it was sold as another “war”. War now, war tomorrow, war all the time and on all fronts. If we believe in peace, we cannot in good conscience remain in the party of the Ku Klux Klan, the party of Jim Crow Laws, the party of Tammany Hall, seditious infiltration of a corrupt FBI, race baiting, and Trump Derangement Syndrome.
