| #6 Doubt Westy could have won it with the entire US Army at his disposal. He wasn't the right guy for the war. Abrams however would have won outright with what Westmoreland was given. |

| #5 Mitch H. - I used to bash Westmoreland. The more I see Iraq the more I have begun to appreciate what that man did for our country, the Vietnamese and the 50,000 Americans who were betrayed by John Kerry and the @$#% Congressmen who covinced themselves to pull funding. The 200,000 that Westmoreland wanted would have allowed him to cut the Ho Chi Min trail permanently. Bringing up the Reserves at anytime during the war would have cemented our country behind the effort - as it did in GW I, Afghanistan and the Iraq War. (Think about how much futile effort the new Soviet media has spent trying to undercut American support for our troops this time.) The result of Tet was that there was no cohesive Communist presence left in South Vietnam. All that was left to do was Vietnamization - worked Nixon did effectively. WHEN THE LEFTY PUNKS POINT OUT THE PARALLELS BETWEEN THE SITUATION IN IRAQ AND VIETNAM, THEY HAVE SPOKE NO TRUER WORDS, ALL THAT IS LEFT TO DO IS TO STAY THE COURSE AND WE CAN HAVE THE VICTORY TODAY THAT WE WON AND THEN PISSED AWAY IN VIETNAM THROUGH THE BAD ADVICE OF THE VERY SAME TRAITORS TODAY. I say there was a percentage chance that if we had kept Vietnam free, the dominos might have fallen the other way. Victory is powerful. I think Qadaffi would agree with me. If the dominoes do now fall the other way in the Middle East and Asia, we need to all find a lefty and boot him in the nads because they have facillitated in the enslavement of a generation. Facilitation the actions of the enemies of freedom is not the role that George Washington forsaw four our little experiment in liberty. |

| #4 "Westmoreland won"? I never thought that I'd meet a Westmoreland partisan. Seems rather like being a Fredendall advocate. Usually, if someone wants to argue a "tactical victory, long-term strategic defeat" scenario, they pick Abrams as their fair-haired boy. |

| #3 What was his quote about war crimes committed by US troops in Vietnam again? I want to put that quote on a sign and stand in front of my polling place for 8 hours on election day. And Kerry will never visit San Jose. A number of Vietnamese who settled there fought the North and would probably stone him. |

| #2 .com, the leftists are big on speculating and postulating about fictive history. Here is Super Hose's Conjecture: had congress not ceased funding the war that Westmoreland won, there is a percentage chance that several billion Chinese would be living in freedom today. |

| #1 An undeniable traitor running for President - and the polls near dead-locked. Says it all... |
