3. Well done, Kris.



It's good to hear the truth from Kris.


And for those who may not know, Kris is a Viet Nam vet.

6. Hmmm...
didn't think he was in Vietnam; thought he was in the Army in Germany, then resigned his commission as captain to go to Nashville...

But...he was a Rhodes scholar...
"I think between us, Bill Clinton and I have settled any lingering myths about the brilliance of Rhodes scholars."

Great song & video, btw.

11. I stand corrected.



I knew he was a helicopter pilot during the Viet Nam era and took too much for granted.

After doing a little Google assisted research (which I obviously should have done beforehand) I found the error of my ways. Thank you for pointing that out.

4. Great video, but I have a question...and oh....K & R
Edited on Sat Aug-19-06 12:23 PM by sutz12
I don't get the reference to the chaining of the daughter and throwing her into the water.

Can anyone enlighten me?

edit: add K & R

7. I took it to mean
a reference to the Scott/Lacy Peterson story. The title of the video is 'In the News'and all the news was talking about was this sad event and not the consequences of going to war at the time. If it was discussed with the same intensity the misleading facts would have turned the country against going in the first place.
