Provide the quote where he says he didnt do enough bombing and wanted to do more. What he said is that he regretted that he didnt do more to end the war in vietnam. Again, I've shown you the article from NYT and so has Steve. You can parse it how you like. The fact remains that this man is not remorseful for the bombings, has defended the use of terrorist techniques and frankly, would have been sent to prison for a very long time were it not for a legal technicality. What is important is that a Democratic presidential candidate has been allowed to be nominated without having been so much as ASKED about this relationship by the MSM and without having been properly vetted by the media. This vetting process is supposed to protect us against fascism and other extremes of leadership and we count on the news media to do it. Unfortunately, the media has failed in its duty. So, we have many people who are just too ignorant to think for themselves and would vote for this extremist without being informed. That's YOU.
