Saigon Times

Why have we not opened our heart borders to the truly desperate,, to the men and women of Afghanistan who've fought long and hard for basic human rights,,, now we're leaving them behind with necks in the shadows of wicked knives.. We've known for quite awhile that Kabul would fall so why have we not yet emptied our embassy, have we forgotten the hard lessons from Hillary's Benghazi? Again we've tried in jest to mold the bride of Frankenstein into a runway model..it hasn't worked yet the devil wins yet again.. Joe, if you have one last flicker of light left, don't leave our loyal friends and war dogs behind like we did back in those bloody Saigon times.
