So our pResident went to Viet Nam on a state visit and told them it'd have been better if
"we" had stayed and kept killing them.

1. Yeah, I also thought that was a bizarre thing to say

But if you a member of an occult darkside cabal like Bush's beloved secret Skull & Boner society, I suppose that's how you think...

3. If you're looking for a cabal...
Try WHIG, Carlyle Group, PNAC, or just the Bush family itself (maybe include Bandar). I know too many Quaker environmentalists, Gay Jewish showtune writers and punker lesbian architects in Skull and Bones for that accusation really to hold any water.

7. You mean, of course, the same Skull & Bones
of which John Kerry is a member?

2. Basically, yes. He had no personal participation in the effort.
He was guarding barrooms for the National Guard in Alabama.

This was an incredibly stupid thing to say.

8. Is there a specific link to that quote?
I hadn't been following that topic, other than light skims of postings here, and may have missed it. But on the face of it, it sounds even "Bushier" than Bush himself.

9. I'm sorry, I heard in the car. He said something to the effect that we
are not going to make the same mistake we made in Viet Nam and leave before victory.

10. That sound about right.
It's the sort of "inspirational" bafflegab we've all come to expect from that idiot. And we can easily imagine how that would go over with the Vietnamese!

I may have enough now to Google for a source.
