After finishing The Things They Carried by Tim O'Brien I just have to ask Why did we enter this useless war. I found a clip after watching family guy and I think this video pretty much sums up the entire war.Copy and Paste

I appologize if that video offends anyone who have veterans who served but it jus further shows how much of a defeat vietnam really was. It goes way beyond the number of death statistics or anything that can be written on a black memorial. Recently Barack Obama announced that the U.S. will finally focus more on rebuilding our own situation instead of trying to "help" the world. This is a huge step towards rebuilding our country into what we expect and what it should be. After 10 years or so im glad we've finally heard those words from the president and too bad it took our president 20 years at the time of vietnam to realize the same thing. I'll leave off with PLEASE BARACK OBAMA STICK TO YOUR WORD AND HELP THE IMMIGRANTS for me!!!
