Also, can't miss an opportunity for a good round of dick-waving.

EDIT: with regards to US entering Nam, not Donald defending anything that makes Donald look bad.

Should the US have stayed out of WWII?

"Japan bombed Pearl Harbor and Hitler's trying to take over Europe".

Or something like that.

Communism during the 60s was viewed very differently than it is today.

I wish we could sit in a room together and take a long comprehensive test about the Vietnam War and then compare scores. Or Chinese history. Or Russian history. Then we could see who the **** should be lecturing on the Vietnam War.

Well, you're the teacher here.

Not lecturing. Just stating basic facts. Did China and Russia not back the North Vietnamese in their effort to take to reunify the south? Wasn't the US's involvement to stop the spread of communism? I said the war ended up being a cluster ****.

Hindsight being 20/20 and all.

You just don't get it. The boiling point of water is 212°F and 100°C, not one or the other.

Huh? What? Officially thrown for a loop. What part of basic facts do you not get?

And you didn't answer me about WWII and the US's eventual involvement. Was it justified?

Uh, I'm pretty sure that boiling temperatures are considered basic facts. Try to keep up, Chula.
