Gee Boys & Girls,,let us consider the source,,,The State Dept.,,& who is in charge of the State Dept.??? You guessed it,,Hillary “my lying,cheating,
hubby is a Vietnam Draft Dodger” Rotten Clinton. “Billary” hates Republicans,,the Military (too many Repubs.) & anything that would put our Military in a good light. SO,,,,,,,,,figure it out. What better way can you think of than the Sec.of State to ‘authorize’ a film that ‘apologizes’ to the whole world that we,,the big bad Americans ,went to war against the peace loving people of Vietnam,,than to let a film probably stating that we went to war because of a ‘lie’.
The reasons we went are too numerous to mention here,,it depends on which ‘conspiracy theory’ you believe in.
It just gives BHO & his Czars MORE to apologize for & IT’s DISGUSTING.
