These bills failed because of populist opposition, at first bipartisan (the resistance of a certain socialist senator from Vermont helped doom the 2007 effort) but increasingly simply conservative, and over time the conservative opposition developed a well-founded suspicion of Republican elites, whose plans on immigration always seemed to require ignoring their own base.

Unsaid, but likely thought, was the current U.S. administration's concern that terrorists use refugees' movements as cover to travel to Europe and then onto the U.S. Regardless of how well-founded such concerns are, in all likelihood Tillerson raised concerns about the refugees as much from a focus on blunting terrorists' clandestine travel as from humanitarianism.

His well-founded concern about the problems posed by pervasive South Vietnamese official corruption (grasped, contrary to Boot's claim, by virtually every American intelligence analyst after 1965) did not keep him from championing the unscrupulous, impetuous and flamboyant Nguyen Cao Ky for Saigon's leadership — he of the aviator sunglasses, purple silk scarf and pearl-handled revolver.
