133. He wasn't deceived and he's lying if he says he was. A Vietnam vet who

voted for Vietnam II in an attempt to score a political victory - kind of disappointing. Thing is, everybody knew he really didn't support the war, and his voting for it and claiming to support it only made him appear weak because he wouldn't stand up for what he really believed in. So ironically, his attempts to appear strong actually made him appear weak. Oh, and it also contributed in some part to the fiasco of Iraqnam.
