Truman Was Right About the CIA

Truman was an olde backroom poker player,with guts, that lost his nerve at a bad time. Truman made the call to bomb the Japs OUT of the dark ages and stop the killing.

Then when Korea began, he lost his nerve and undercut MacArthur. One A bomb on North Korea would have stopped the war. Nearly fifty thousands Americans died in Korea, many my comrades.

His own party sold him out for Eisenhower. I would have voted Truman, the only honest president of my lifetime.

Great point.

“The most dangerous man to any government is the man who is able to think things out... without regard to the prevailing superstitions and taboos. Almost inevitably he comes to the conclusion that the government he lives under is dishonest, insane, intolerable.” ~ H. L. Mencken

In 1950, classmate of mine was shot in Korea, spent month in hospital in Japan. He could barely walk and they sent him back to Korea to drive truck hauling a large cannon.

Thousands of American kids died.

Consider...If Chinese come into Korea in force, what would Biden do????

We have 28,000 men in South Korea. Write them off???
