What a refreshing discussion - Vietnam v Afghanistan.

I didn't know about Nixon's treason during the campaign against Johnson.

I hope Obama was listening.

1. Uh huh!

And then there was Reagan and Carter with the Iranian Embassy hostages.

2. Yep - meanwhile Scott Ritter is now tearing the NYT a new one

re the so called IAEA report on Iran. The NYT did a major disservice - he calls BS - US intelligence spin. Oops!!

Thanks Scott.

3. I just posted a thread on Ritter. He is cool, calm and collected - calling out the liars and

warmongers.

5. Responded

I love Ritter.
Good call from that guy reminding all that Ritter was right right about Iraq (and 'silenced'). :hi:

4. Great To See Scott Ritter

Here's a man who was smeared when he spoke the truth. Seems the corporate media is afraid to bring him on to talk about Iran despite having been spot on about Iraq. He knows the topic inside and out.

Nixon's decpetions regarding the Paris Peace talks came out with the Pentagon Papers and other leaks right about the time Watergate was starting to consume the news. It ranks up there with Poppy boooosh's secret trip to Iran in 1980 to make sure the hostages were kept until past the November elections.

8. Speaking of the Nixon treason, how about St. Ronnie

didn't his "team" essentially work with the Iranians to keep the hostage crisis going until St. Ronnie was inaugurated?
