Crazy. You could easily replace the host of this show with Hannity, Brit Hume, etc, and hardly miss a beat....

It seems nothing has changed in 40 years. This damn war-mongering has been going on for decades, and we never seem to learn our lesson. :mad:

Exactly! And we continue to intervene. However, today it is done for the most nefarious of reasons, even moreso than during Vietnam. The Johnson family must have made a good deal of money off that war as they were involved in some portion of the industries that profitted from war.

The neocon talking heads have a play book, I swear, and it's 40 years old.

I recently watched Vietnam - A Television History, and the politicians used the exact same talking points then as they do today... we have to fight them over there or we'll be fighting them over here, etc.

Oh my god. This video is scary, man. I can't believe what's coming out of these people's mouths.

Anybody know what happened to Stanley Kohls?

Strange, this was the time when Lyndon B. Johnson was president...

It's no wonder Lieberman endorses McCain

Stanley Kohls is probably a neo-con now. Most people get beaten into the system with age.

The guy asking the questions is using straw man arguments the entire time.

This damn war-mongering has been going on for decades, and we never seem to learn our lesson. :mad:We would be having internal wars all the time if it wasn't for sports. Yea, sports is a simulated war. Why does it matter if a town 20 miles away wins or loses? The people "over there" are just like you with the same problems etc.. as you have, so why is it so important that you "win"?

Warning: The opinion above will get a lot of people upset.

What we need to do is find a sport the mid east likes and somehow promote it on their turf without them knowing it. Maybe give them free TVs and satellite time, or just give them one of our old satellites.

How he makes his points. Very Articulate. And the people.... Ohhh... the people.... I think the ones who were calling him a traitor, their sons are the ones who are calling for more war. Its all in the mentality.

After 40 years,
The talking heads havent changed.... The sheeps are still sheeps.... And the ones who truly see what is happening are laughed at.. mocked at...

Such a shame.

He is my 2nd hero now. I would very much like to meet him.

The 1st being Dr. Paul.

Maybe they snuffed him out. It's strange that info on such a great speaker isn't mentioned on google except for this one video.

I felt sick watching that video. Kohls is a true patriot.
