		<description>Let us well remember too, that the US Congress then passed the Gulf Of Tonkin Resolution into law, giving LBJ wide powers to deal with any future &quot;threats,&quot; after the phony non-existent &quot;PT boat Attacks&quot; by North Vietnam in 1964.

 But LBJ, in contrast to his fellow Texan, NOW occupying the White House, did on numerous OTHER occasions of REAL ATTACKS by the Communists in Vietnam, refuse to escalate the American effort, or indulge in &quot;revenge attacks,&quot; in those instances.(* A noteworthy book on this-these matters:&quot;HOW PRESIDENTS Test REALITY: Decisions on Vietnam, 1954 and 1965,&quot; Published in 1989 by the Russell Sage Foundation, by two scrupulous scholars, John P. BURKE, and Fred I. GREENSTEIN, shows clearly that JOHNSON, even being the man who DID truly, finally COMMIT US Forces fully into Vietnam&#039;s debacle, that even HE, &quot;LBJ,&quot; though perhaps still that Megalomaniac that this &quot;elected&quot; President is, was far more THOUGHTFUL, and even patient{compared to GW Bush, and perhaps to a future, &quot;President Clinton, McCain, or Obama,&quot; as well?] when compared to GW Bush.)



 Let&#039;s hope, and PRAY(*which I shall, and to &quot;all Gods,&quot; and the &quot;Big Bang,&quot; etcetera) as well, that we shall NOT end up soon, given the &quot;SHEEPLE-Like&quot; Behaviour of these &quot;Democrats$,&quot; etcetera, in &quot;OUR,&quot; the PEOPLE&#039;s alleged US Congress, that a &quot;STRAITS of HORMUZ&quot; Resolution for War upon IRAN, is not forthcoming.</description>
