Russell Brand: "When I was poor and I complained ..."

92. No secret info, just that I lived through that time and knew the controversy and

back and forth arguments flying around at the time. I admit I wasn't pro Ho Chi Minh, but do remember having heard he'd asked the U.S. for help and was refused, thus turning to Communist China. I had a brother and friends who served, had little choice, but were not pro war. Had I been around in revolutionary or civil war days I do believe I'd have a better perspective on what was happening as it happened. Most pro war people in the Viet Nam era were past war veterans, especially WWII, who were clinging to that same old patriotism. Before it was all over most had changed their tune.
Oh yeah, I'm a huge fan of Limbaugh, Hannity and their ilk. Listen to 'em 24/7 and cover my walls with their posters. Riiight! Give yourself some time and perspective, child (I'm Mom and a teacher), and read more carefully. Snopes should have answered your questions, as I read it, too and thought it was pretty clear as to why Jane caused some controversy. (Filmed on the tank with the "bad guys&quot . The longer you've been around, the less narrow your view, if you have an open mind (unfortunately some, like teabagger types, do not).
