As the world waits for Congress to stop beating around the bush and give Obama his authorization to use force…..maybe step back in history and ask a simple question……do we Americans learn from our past?
When ever I am among others and the dialog turns to war……I am always drawn into the conversation, whether I want to or not……..of course most of them want to put a positive light on the Vietnam thing…..and then I just simply say…”if you were not there then you opinion is moot”….
I have heard this question asked many times…..”did we learn anything from Vietnam”?
My answer is usually short and concise……NO!
