    For a leader of the Democratic Party to praise communist Ho and label America’s military as imperialist is both highly offensive and historically wrong.

    “My father fought against Ho Chi Minh’s communist forces and my uncle was murdered by Ho Chi Minh’s violent thugs,” Janet Nguyen wrote.

    Damn, maybe if your uncle had just followed the law

    “Mr. LeTourneau’s glorification of Ho Chi Minh spits in the face of the freedom, prosperity, and safety that so many Vietnamese Americans fought and died for, and the deaths of 58,000 American soldiers who laid down their lives to defend the freedom of the Vietnamese people,” states the letter from Reps. Rouda, D-Laguna Beach; Gil Cisneros, D-Yorba Linda; Lou Correa, D-Anaheim; and Alan Lowenthal, D-Long Beach plus State Sen. Tom Umberg, D-Santa Ana.

    Indistinguishable from Republican rhetoric

      Fucking ba que! Both my grandfathers were drafted by the ARVN and they both hated it. The Saigon junta and its remains do not have any right to act like they can represent Vietnam or even just Southern Vietnam.
      As a Vietnamese from Vietnam, I give all chapos express approval for the use of the b-word. Ba-que! Ba-que! Stick those three sticks on your flag up your assholes you fucking pathetic asslickers. Andy Ngo? How about Andy NO?

    More than 2 million people were displaced, including thousands of Vietnamese refugees who settled in Orange County.

    I wonder why that happened :thinkin-lenin:

      I haven't done my Vietnam homework. 2 million sounds like a lot more than the bourgeois class fleeing - why did it happen?
