"Well it ain't Henry Kissinger!"

He is destroying Hillary on foreign policy. His depth of knowledge on the history of the US over throwing leaders in the middle east (no doubt most were terrible) is breathtaking.

Go Bernie!!!!!!

reshaped into some avuncular older statesman is disturbing. VERY disturbing.

He's kind of almost kicking ass

That really was amazingly short-sighted. Panic over New Hampshire may well hurt her. More short-sighted campaigning.

him to be a traitor.

Those who listen to the Thom Hartmann show regularly probably have heard the LBJ tape in which he is telling Republican Senator Everett Dirksen that Nixon is being treasonous by trying to blow-up the Paris Peace accords and Dirksen says, "I know, I know."

If I were Hillary, I would want nothing to do with these odious malefactor.

I wonder if Hillary will be called out on it?

"Richard Nixon was a traitor.

"The new release of extended versions of Nixon's papers now confirms this long-standing belief, usually dismissed as a "conspiracy theory" by Republican conservatives. Now it has been substantiated by none other than right-wing columnist George Will.

"Nixon's newly revealed records show for certain that in 1968, as a presidential candidate, he ordered Anna Chennault, his liaison to the South Vietnam government, to persuade them to refuse a cease-fire being brokered by President Lyndon Johnson.

"Nixon's interference with these negotiations violated President John Adams's 1797 Logan Act, banning private citizens from intruding into official government negotiations with a foreign nation. ...

"Nixon's sabotage of the Vietnam peace talks was confirmed by transcripts of FBI wiretaps. On November 2, 1968, LBJ received an FBI report saying Chernnault told the South Vietnamese ambassador that "she had received a message from her boss: saying the Vietnamese should "hold on, we are gonna win."

"As Will confirms, Vietnamese did "hold on," the war proceeded and Nixon did win, changing forever the face of American politics—with the shadow of treason permanently embedded in its DNA."

That article noted as well that Kissinger was giving information to the Nixon campaign, even though he worked for Johnson, this leading to an extending of the Vietnam War.

The article also included this: "In the four years between the sabotage and what Kissinger termed “peace at hand” just prior to the 1972 election, more than 20,000 US troops died in Vietnam. More than 100,000 were wounded. More than a million Vietnamese were killed. " Also Cambodians, etc.

Recommended.

Hope this isn't insulting—but do most millennials really know who Kissinger is and what he did? Maybe now they'll find out. He can really be compared to Dick Cheney who is a monster they grew up with.

It sounds like Hell some people might say.

Thanks for the thread, DefenseLawyer.
