History ignored will be repeated

[central17]

In 1975, President Ford was left to manage the difficult ending of the Vietnam War. President Ford went to Congress for a relief package to allow American personnel and our allies to evacuate. However, there was ONE US SENATOR who opposed any such support. The result was the embarrassing and hurried evacuation from the roof of the American embassy in Saigon
This senator reveled in the embarrassment and did everything he could to leverage it politically against Ford. Despite the efforts of this U.S. Senator--President Ford managed to rescue 1,500 South Vietnamese allies prior to the country's fall. Had President Ford not acted quickly, these people would have been targeted and slaughtered for their support for America . When they arrived in America , President Ford asked Congress for a package to assist these refugees to integrate into American society.
That SAME troublesome SENATOR TORPEDOED ANY SUPPORT for these shell shocked, anti-communist, Americans and our helpers, the refugees.
Instead, President Ford had to recruit Christian organizations to offer assistance on a voluntary basis. As he did so, the Senator belittled those efforts. What kind of person would oppose President Ford's tireless work to do the right and humanitarian thing? Who would want to play politics with the well-being of innocent people who stood by America in the tragic Vietnam War?
THAT SENATOR WAS JOE BIDEN
From the book - "When the Center Held." by Donald Rumsfeld in 2018.(biography)

The history of slavery is taught at every education level under the topic of American History and Social Studies. Did you not go to school or take a history class?

Apparently, some have not been taught that it was a lot of white people carrying an American flag that ended slavery in this country. The first time in the history of the world where one race fought a war against their own people to free another race from slavery. The greatness of America.

So true. We had four straight posts about Trump by the same person in a discussion of Afghanistan disaster. Last time I checked he wasn't President.

Biden wants to pretend Afghanistan is not happening. When President, you don't get to pick and choose what you want to talk about. History will likely anoint little Joe as the worst US President ever. Our foreign policy is toast for at least the next three years. China and Russia are looking at the world like a "Risk board" and choosing their next conquest.

It's not even a question that Joey is the worst president by far, and in only 7 months on the job. The real question is how much damage he'll do to America before he's finished. It's indefensible to still support him at this point.

We do teach that you moron. Seriously dude I don't know what schools you attended, if any.

You may have hit on common ground for Biden to negotiate with the Taliban. Both the Taliban and Democrats believe in tearing down historic statues, burning books and changing education to propoganda.
