Not quite right on the wind-down of the Vietnam War.
Nixon didn’t take office until January 1969. “Vietnamization” was well under way by summer of 1970 and it continued until the South Vietnamese military could “stand up” (sound familiar?).
Thus, we were in a phased withdrawal during Nixon’s first term. US ground troops were virtually out completely in 1973, just like he promised in the 1972 election campaign.
The genocide came after the Demon-crats stopped all funding to South Vietnam. The South Vietnamese military was winning on the battlefield until the money dried up.
The slaughter was inevitable yet none of the true murderers (the Democrat majority that decided those “gooks” weren’t worth any more of our tax money) have yet to be held to account.
The very same mindset is operating today, with a different set of “gooks” being set up for slaughter if the “war costs too much” types have their way in the next election.
The Iraqis know that without McCain in the White House, millions of them will die. They’ve seen the Vietnam script in action, doncha know?
