Yeah ok, like you'd know more about that than someone who lived here during that era.

Carter did not lose for one reason.

No he didn't but the hostage crisis and his bumbling response to it was arguably the single biggest reason.

And now when Obama wants to repair it and Ahmadinejad and the clergy are willing to have it repaired,

Obama is a fool for thinking he can normalize relations with the mullahs.

But did any of these effects include a massive revolution for you all that changed your government style completely? Did anyone die as a result of this? How about a war afterwards which got over a million people killed? Did that ever happen?

None of that stuff happened after the American civil war either. I believe the question was whether Vietnam had a lasting impact on this country. Nothing you have said contradicts that.

What subject are we talking about here? The CSA flag image or Iranian-American history and relations? Because I addressed both quite clearly.

If that's what you call it. It looks to me like a song and dance around the truth.

Which reminds me, you still haven't explained why that flag is there.

Well you haven't either dearie. Maybe the flag was put there by a Democrat party operative trying to make the opposition look bad. After all they have a track record for employing tactics like that.

Now I'm not saying the Republicans have never done this but the Democrats do seem to have made a habit of it.

That still doesn't excuse you advocating vigilante murder.
