In truth, it was "the people" that finally got us out of vietnam...
the peace movement made an impact and Congress was forced to do such...they did nothing but fund this war from our first involvement in Viet Nam during the Eisenhower administration in 1958/59 I believe...thru to the early 70's....
It was us, we the people, that forced congress to follow what we wanted.
The Democrats were the ones that FINALLY listened to the public....and the republicans have used this as a negative political tool over and over again to manipulate small minded people....(shakes head) ....even to this day....just amazing.
And this past week, the people of this country spoke again....Congress better listen to their bosses, or they will pay with their jobs....as they should.
If congress can convince the public that there is a real threat to us for being their and change the publics sentiment on this war through LEGITIMATE info and legitimate means, then that is totally another story...this will not be done and can't be done imo, so ....the public will determine congress's actions...eventually!
