'We exercised great patience in vietnam and got burned.'

Oh man michael, that is a rich one, hoo-hah, i could type a book ... but no time, got to drive folks around .... briefly - if you'd listened to your own major Archimedes Patti instead of the impatient arrogant dickhead de Gaulle who insisted on french re-colonisation, you would indeed have exercised patience, and not gotten burnt

It wasn't patience that burned you in Viet Nam, it was the lack of it .... just look at them now that you've left them alone, they are coming along, slow maybe for sure by norteamericano standards, but in their own good time, they way they like to do ..... they fought the chinese for a thousand years, then the french, then the japanese, then the french again, then the 'french with money' [which is what they called US nationals] .... aw c'mon michael, geez ... well, later, cháu
