When did the term 'credibility gap' come into widespread usage?
The term "credibility gap" first came into wide usage in the 1960's (1963) and 1970's. It was frequently used to describe public skepticism in the then Lyndon B. Johnson administration's statements on the Vietnam war. Today however it used to describe any "gap" between the reality of a situation and what the government agencies and politicians say about it.
Why was Vietnam Fought?
Two reasons. First we thought it was necessary to fight to prevent the spread of Communism. And second because we were too stupid to look at history and realize that it was probably smarter to leave the Vietnamese alone. It was incredibly dumb to pick a fight with people who fought China for 600 years so they could be left alone. And I enlisted in 1963 and reenlisted in 1967, and given what I knew then, I'd probably do it again.
