I like Ike

[EvilCat Breath]

700?

Are you sure?

Ah yes, I remember it well! Eisenhower sent advisors to help the French who were in control of Viet Nam at the time. There were no fighters and Ike promised the Americans that no American would be fighting. The French left in 1954 and Nixon thought we could bring a quick end to the war. Sadly, the tactics didn't work.

Advisors?

Seriously?

**** off. Eisenhower did not enslave the Negros!

A Democrat socialist enslaved the Negros.

Not a Republican.

You did know that initially we only sent advisors to the French. I can't believe you didn't know that. Isn't it taught in schools or something?

It's called fake news.

FACT= Democrats enslaved the Negros, over and over and over again. And, if it is necessary, us Republicans will kick Democrat ass again.

You can't represent the state of American education?

OK. Then who does, in your opinion?

How many folks did those CIA agents murder? And if those alleged "advisors" didn't 9murder anyone, why should we be paying their salary in the first place? What the **** are us taxpayers paying them to do if they don't murder for us?

Eisenhower got us involved in Vietnam.

Involved yes, but Johnson got us committed.

It's like bacon and eggs.
The chicken is involved, but
the pig is committed.

And what I said was "Eisenhower got us involved". It was inevitable that we would then blow it all up from there.

I believe I was then called names over stating that simple fact.

I agree that we should never have gotten involved, but we were in the cold war, and fears of the 'domino theory' infected Washington's thinking.

I agree that we should never have gotten involved, but we were awash in the 'red scare' and the 'domino theory'.
