It's funny that a draft dodger during the Vietnam War has me thinking about that war. People would be surprised how similar Vietnam was to what is happening now.
There's a lot to say about this: one is that I think the people who protested Vietnam have turned into total hypocrites: e.g., John "How do you ask a man to be the last man to die for a mistake?" Kerry. Well, you voted for the war in Iraq, John: so, now you know the answer.
Anyway, part of this Vietnam revisited on my part is listening to the music of the time, which is where this song comes in:
It was written 61 years ago and went to number one.
And it's relative to the current situation.
