I voted for(against) LBJ. Viet Nam was just a disgrace
Maybe so, but it wasn't LBJ's fault; he was totally clueless about foriegn policy and generally did whatever he was told (in complete contrast to just about everything else where he was very much in control; just about his entire legislative agenda passed through Congress. Shame that some parts of it weren't thought through enough, but it was an impressive achievement no matter how you look at it).
If you
must blame a President for Vietnam, blame Eisenhower. If you
must blame a Democratic President for Vietnam, blame St Kennedy of Brookline.
The sheer brutality and untruthfulness of the repeated attacks on LBJ by the liberal left is way out of all proportion and extremely unfair.
Are you seriously blaming LBJ for the Donkey blowing up in Chicago?
