They were lying to us straight faced every night during Vietnam. It’s nothing new, kids.

At least, they had what was probably the first ever "picture in picture" in the upper corner of the TeeVee on the nightly news. Even if the numbers were shaded, it showed the number of American KIA and NVA KIA for that day.

I remember watching the numbers every day, as a kid.

I've been convinced that, that truth in reporting, and transparency led to the end of the war. After night after night of seeing how many American lives were lost every day, people said, that's a-fuckin'-nuff! And they hit the bricks.

That my friends, is why you never see those stats today, or since then. Think no US service members died today in foreign lands? Think again.

My sons will readily and capably defend American soil, but the Deep State/MIC will only have them over my dead body.
