Freightdawg -- it's not nice to shout.

"Proud, and humble, to live in a land of Freedom bought and paid for by the blood of true patriots...."

I was going to say "you gotta be kidding me" but I know you're not. And I'm not going to start an argument that will get me clobbered by the many veterans and friends/relatives of vets around here. Let's just say I have a different view of the value of military service, as well as the so-called freedom America enjoys.

No, not everything in my life has to be about enjoyment. But the time I spend in front of the TV better be! My news, learning and information come from different sources.

"...the men who fought them for me so I could sit at this computer and not have to worry about Hitler, or Stalin, or Hussein, or bin Laden [italics added], are my heroes." Does that include Bush and Rumsfeld? Wait, don't tell me...

Cheers,
Michael
