79. I just felt it

May 2015

to be true, when I heard that CT. But noooooooooo! Kissinger, that POS, caused many more american deaths and countless Vietnamese lives by helping nixon undermine LBJ and continuing that WAR. All for power. Nixon was a real piece of work.....and Atwaters "Southern Strategy" went a long way towards assuring that racist society of the late 60's, early 70's, would continue, even on to today in 2015.
