      Secretary of State Antony Blinken described as "orderly" the evacuation from the U.S. Embassy in Kabul as the Taliban enter the Afghan capital. Blinken rejected comparisons to the chaotic U.S. exit from Saigon at the end of the Vietnam War.http://apne.ws/nNBqk1k

          LOL. He's right. There's no comparison. Vietnam became stable and prosperous after we left. Afghanistan won't.
