In truth, President Eisenhower sent the first U.S. troops in as "advisors."

It is an interesting study in propaganda, however, to see how both sides can come up with documents like this.

I'm also dissapointed, although I know Kerry would have done the same thing in the same circumstances, that President Bush made the commencement speech at the U.S. Air Force Academy today into a very thinly disguised political speech opportunity. The power of the incumbancy.
