Bill, i think we know the answers to those questions. Those who served then and who went to Southeast Asia came home to a different America... if they came home alive. They came to our airports to be met by throngs of 'protesters' who spit on them and chanted slogans like "baby killer" and "rapist" and so on. Protesters like those of the past few days who even now continue to direct their protests not at the cause and root of the problem, but at the visible or material object, not at the cause.
I think we will have to be satisfied to be known as the unfortunate pawns of a huge political machine.
