I never said what he was/wasn't so stop making things up.
I merely cited the record of him believing the South Vietnamese should be taught to fight their own battle.

I don't believe I've ever seen one but can't believe it'd be any worse than your apparently completely biased sources.

YEP! TWO big mistakes, picking McNamara and keeping the lying POS. McNamara was an idiot who believed virtually every part of humanity could be reduced to a spreadsheet and we continue to suffer the effects to this day.
will you please stop, agree to disagree and stop fighting with people....b/c they don't think and feel like you do....sheeeeesh
you ruin a perfectly good thread....stop it....you can't win anything by being a bully....
how am I being bully?....and what should I stop?.....we are debating in a forum.....if you don't like other people's views don't read and don't answer and stop being a cry baby.

it was working????? you really believe that? JFK picked him and it wasn't a mistake. JFK was always a liberal war hawk. That's why JFK raised the military when Eisenhower cut it.
JFK today would be rejected by the left in the democrat party.

Uh, the thread's about LBJ being an evil man. Vietnam is a large part of his legacy and fits the thread title and as a lead in so do JFK's actions. Why should that cause the thread to be closed?

Would you PLEASE stop making stuff up! WHERE/WHEN did I EVER say I thought it was working????
And no matter what you label JFK, what do you have to refute the FACT he believed the South Vietnamese should be taught to fight their own battle?

As Reagan today would be rejected by the Tea Party, none of which has anything to do with the topic, eh?
