That's very true rose,
That positive and good beliefs turned into action can accomplish wonderful deeds.. I have read some on the NNBM thread about Scott's work in Vietnam. I applaud him and all his supporters...
And these are not FORCED deeds like the current action in Iraq.. Actually most, actually ALL, military action from the INITIATIVE side is ALWAYS forced.. And anything from my perspective that is FORCED never works out.. It always back fires..
I have tried to force things in my life, my career.. The last time.. When I finally learned my lesson.. That time, early spring, late winter, I tried to force my 4X4 over a high pass on a tough dirt track, barely a road, at 8,000-9,000 feet to stake some claims.. I knew it was wrong from within.... Sure enough, I got stuck, and had to hike over the summit at night for about 8 miles to a drilling camp where I could eventually hitch a ride to town, 60 miles from where I started.. I had to leave my rig up there for awhile until the weather cleared..
That's the last time I "forced" anything.. Except a few trades, which I always lose..<g>..
Anyway, I am sorry to bore you, but I just wanted to illustrate my experiences concerning "force" and "flow"..
What Scott and you are doing is "flow".. What Bush, etal is doing is "force"...
Your's, the former, will work well (no pun,<g>) Bush, the latter, will not..
Take care,
