About Vietnam, in light of WWI, WWII and Korea, LBJ said: “Retreat does not bring safety. Weakness does not bring peace.”
What did suck about LBJ:
War on Poverty; welfare, food stamps, public housing, etc. Spend us into oblivion.
The idea of a “limited war”. Limited war = lose war.
Gave up on Vietnam in order to fund the War on Poverty. Therefore he lost both wars.
Corrupt. Personal wealth increased by many millions while a Senator and President.
Mean to his wife.
More on what sucks about LBJ here:
Upon returning from S.E. Asia, I thought the “War on Poverty” was awesome. Boy’o was I wrong! As the Indian Reservations we have enslaved millions of Americans and made them wards of the state.
What don’t suck about LBJ…
He is the only cat we can pet.
What sucks about LBJ…
He is hard on the rest of the male cats and kills the kittens.
We had an old Mommy cat come around and had 4 pure white cats and 1 mostly black cat with white markings. This happened about the time Obama went in office.
His Deer Blind Rules:p I hunted on one of his old ranches and they gave me a tour of his deer blind. It had an elevator going up into it, AC/Heat, bed, bar, desk, and Lights. The elevator is obviously over the top, but the funny thing about the lights was he created the funding for new stadium lights for the local highschool so he could get their old stadium lights for his deer blind which were on top of it and aimed out over a wide open plot as he preferred to hunt deer at night by stadium light:D Gotta love TX:D
we declared a war on poverty, and what happened, we got more of it. Scores of people on welfare and dependent on govt entitlements that we didnt have before. Same thing with the War on Drugs, we got more drug use and more violence because of it.
