Bush to visit Ho Chi Minh City next month

WASHINGTON (AP) -- President Bush will visit Vietnam's Ho Chi Minh City, the city once known as Saigon that was the capital of U.S.-backed South Vietnam, during a trip to the communist nation next month, the White House said Monday.

I guess he feels he needs to catch up with Jane Fonda who has been in Nam more than him.

8. Nov 6?
I can see a campaign video with him standing there, reminiscing about how he and his comrades in arms nearly saved Saigon but were thwarted by commie cowards like John Kerry, Wesley Clark, and Max Cleland. And Tweety will have an orgasm as he wholeheartedly agrees.

we committed just shy of genocide in that country and a pig of a man like bush has no business going there except to beg forgiveness and offer up reparations.

17. He's several decades late
But on the bright side, he might be able to point to Vietnam on the map by the time his trip is over. That has to count for something I guess.
