American History: Chapter 29
from The Dunce Caps Hosted by The Dunce Caps
Rob and Chris learn about the Vietnam War. JFK urges Americans to hit the gym so we can build up our arms. The Bay of Pigs is thwarted by several blunders. The Soviet Union builds the Berlin Wall and the Berlin Wall Ball Association (BWBA) is born. Americans get bored with the Cuban Missile Crisis and decide to go home and smoke some weed. JFK announces his plan to go to the Moon to find some cheese, or whatever. The counter culture shows it's opposition to the war by wearing yellow circle shaped glasses and eating a lot of LSD. Nixon gets America's best egghead, Henry Kissinger, to try and strengthen and rebuild our relationships with China and the Soviet Union in an attempt to end the Vietnam War. TLDR: Welcome to Vietnam, the rubber capital of the world!
