Cao left Vietnam in 1975 during the Fall of Saigon. He has never actually lived in a socialist or communist country.

“… Josh pointed out that, with the exception of Cuban gusano Lincoln Diaz-Balart, Cao is also the only Congressmember who has actually lived in a socialist or Communist country, and was thus unimpressed and unmoved by all the Republican heavy breathing about the supposed socialism or Communism of allowing a public option in American healthcare. In fact, that talk must have seemed bizarre to him …”

As far as I’ve seen you are pretty right on in most of your comments. I certainly hope we all are and this coming season is one of change for central (and perhaps west) OC politics.

Hey cool some actual Vietnamese-American blog just picked up this story, copied over the whole thing! (If I were Reggie at the Pacific Progressive I would be raising a stink about my work being “stolen!”) Hope I get lots of feedback, and hope I can read it. Hope I don’t get a visit from some Trannies with brass knuckles.

It’s good to hear that from you Lam. I hate to pontificate – and engage in wishful thinking! – about another race, without double-checking my observations with a whole lot of the folks in question!

Vern, you are right on. The fact of the matter is, MOST Vietnamese Americans would fit better being Democrats. In fact, Trannies and Jannies sound like Democrats when they speak to crowds of Vietnamese.

Yet, most Vietnamese Americans are registered Republicans. You know why??? Because of two misconceptions:

1) Republicans are tougher on Communists than Democrats.

2) The old country of Vietnam was known as The REPUBLIC of Vietnam, and thus it’s natural to be a member of the REPUBLICan Party.

Vern,

Great post! I need to make you a media pass so you can get into these events for free.

I too have heard that the Jannies and the Trannies have angered the community.

And just look at how the Red County mob is treating Hugh Nguyen. The GOP does not deserve him!
