Inquiring minds are flabbergasted over the latest comments from Vice President Joe Biden: ‘We Have to Go Spend Money to Keep From Going Bankrupt’

It was just like any other Vietnamese village-old papa-sans, women and kids," a soldier said describing what they found on entering My Lai. "As a matter of fact, I don’t remember seeing one military-age male in the entire place, dead or alive."
The U.S. soldiers started killing everyone in sight. A U.S. soldier later testified:
