[FRSFreeState]

Perhaps the most fascinating year in American Political History and definitely one of the most fascinating years in American History in general.

[MrMediamate]

Quite Interesting

Hard th fathom that 4:47 was used in a Monkees' movie. They did it for "artistic" reasons.

[Seasass]

@DerekBayRoberts1 "Head" is a great movie, actually! And it wasn't just a "Monkees" movie; it was a Bob Rafelson / Jack Nicholson production, before "Five Easy Pieces".

Tet offensive+ the surge in iraq and afganistqn...same shit different generation

[alanheath2]

@ioriorioriorio You seem to have your sides mixed up. The Tet offensive was aimed at the South Vietnamese and US whereas the surge was organised by the US. There is a difference.

[tumsabai1]

@ioriorioriorio

Yes and so much fun!!!!

[WonderweissMaragera]

Guevara then denounced the United States policy towards their black population, stating:

"Those who kill their own children and discriminate daily against them because of the color of their skin; those who let the murderers of blacks remain free, protecting them, and furthermore punishing the black population because they demand their legitimate rights as free men — how can those who do this consider themselves guardians of freedom?" -Ernesto "CHE" Guevara

[alanheath2]

@WonderweissMaragera Whatever one may think of Che Guevara, on this issue he has a very good point!

[iamdiaperman]

what did it mean? receive welfare and never get a job?

[CaptainGOP]

Fuck what this un american piece of commie liberal shit has to say. This guy did nothing but wreck this nation. America had very few racial problems during segregation. Negros were well dress and well behaved. Now look at those ghetto monkeys. Shooting, steal, running, yelling, complaining, and dressed in clown suits. Blacks ruined diversity for the rest of us.

[TruthSeeker24]

Apparently, you ignore lynchings, assaults, and discrimination that was worse before the 1960's than today.

[universallance]

@CaptainGOP That's an interesting position... Just understand, change is difficult, sometimes appears worse, but generally is just different. This world can be run different ways. Much of what you value as the Great Back Then was an illusion, however.

[ioriorioriorio]

@universallance true...20, 20 vision, I viewed it different in , say, 1978, yet I view it very close today...I am even more radical ....I oppose the occupation of iraq, afganistan....and palestine!!!! thats is not an illusion...its reality!!!!

[grandmachristine42]

Haha I remember when the press told us that the Viet Cong were on their last legs and "in a desperate last-ditch attempt" had taken over the capitol city! Haw!

I am glad Obama won.

The sixties worked in my favour.

John Lennon was against the war too.

[openedup09]

Is that all you see.How about now?

[ubloom3]

thanks for posting

[ariekanibalie]

Good thing power has figured out how to use TV to work for it, rather than against it. Well, not good, really, more like convenient.

[donttrustany1]

Cronkite is a cocksucker....hes trying to slide past you the assumption that the USA had a place in Vietnam in the first place and the issue is that the war was unwinnable. Not that the war was wrong! "We can finish the job" Fucking piece of shit!

Fascist Propaganda!

[srotagadirolf]

The Tet Offensive was the communists last gasp; the communists lost that battle and they were on the brink of giving up. But the knuckleheads called the US press gave the north life and ended up winning. I wish they would have tried the people in the press for treason back then.

[cafewindows]

You wish they would have tried the people in the press for treason back then?

It will never happen. Things are too liberal. It would take a war to set things right.
