Caused us to lose the war? That is one of the stupidest things I have ever seen on here.
to hellsyeahlol says:
You are beyond a moron that know NOTHING about history.
to lolBB says:
This is a bullshit comment too. It was a war we should never been in and once in we fought it in completely the wrong way. Our troops were heroes but led by bozos.

Nik, you’re such a Turd!
to pgawannabehellsyeah says:
The real shame is that Cronkite had forgotten more about journalism than your entire staff could ever possibly imagine in their lifetime.
RIP Walt.

You’ve posted some stupid captions, Nik (all to incite and drawn traffic to your threads), but this takes the cake. Mentioning a cyberwh*re and Walter Cronkite in the same sentence is just plain idiotic and blasphemous.
to AnonymousAdult says:
Godspeed Mr. Cronkite… Godspeed.
“Sure thing”, you don’t have the first clue.

i agree with all above. bad move nik
to ronny gBB says:
I concur, Nik, your comment was just wrong. Cronkite was the voice of a generation.

He was an old fool and useful idiot to the NV communists. After our troops crushed the Tet Offensive and according to one of the NV Generals, the NV were going to negotiate for peace until good old Walter gave them aid and comfort by declaring that we were going to lose the war and thus turning public opinion against it. He was an @ss clown of the highest order! Oh, and lets not forget this is the 40th anniversary of Teddy Kennedy little episode at Chappaquiddick!
