Re: Burns Vietnam
LBJ and the Kennedy Doves Kennedy’s more dovish advisers recommended the policies that Johnson pursued, and generally approved of them until the 1965 escalation, often beyond. They lost no time in making clear that JFK’s commitment to victory would not be abandoned. On December 10, Forrestal, Ball,...

Re: Burns Vietnam
Chomsky on NSAM 263 In the July/August issue of Z, several articles dealt with the deterioration of conditions of life in American society and the loss of hope, trust, or even expectations for the political system.

Ken Burns Vietnam

Re: Dad's Memorial
Looks very good, Jeff. But if you have room, I might consider putting the following sentence back:
"Morris or "Morrie" was a loving husband, father, brother, grandfather, uncle, and friend to many."

Debbie and I conference called with Dr. Agreed to stop treatments that cause pain, namely pricks for blood sugar and shots for blood clots. They hurt dad, wake him up and in the scheme of things are not going to make the difference. Also, he will take an ultrasound of bladder to try to pinpoint what...
