Hopefully, Bush won't fall into the trap of trying please everyone (especially you).




I'm afraid your history is incorrect, there was a Republican President by the name of Eisenhower who was the first to send advisors, helicopters and solders to Vietnam. The man was afraid of the "Domino Theory".

Vice-President Bush (Cheney is the real President) won't try to please everybody, only himself.. Bush is still trying to avenge Bush Senior's embarrassment.
