The Costs of Vietnam“If I left the woman I really loved-the Great Society - in order to get involved in that bitch of a war on the other side of the world, then I would lose everything at home… But if I left that war and let the Communists take over South Vietnam, then I would be seen as a coward and my nation would be seen as an appeaser and we would both find it impossible to accomplish anything for anybody anywhere on the entire globe."
-Lyndon B. Johnson
