I do wish we could dispense with war, but Teddy Roosevelt was right. We must speak softly and carry a big stick. A relative spent most of his Marine Corps career prosecuting Viet Nam fragging cases. That's the effluent of the Jane Fonda (and those who appeared in photographs with her) mindset prevalent at the time. nothing about war is civilized.

Here's Ann's hero Bush.... "Today the pipsqueak commander-in-chief has exploited the Guard and Army Reserve as a form of covert conscription to beef up troop numbers in Iraq and Afghanistan. But in those days National Guard squadrons were generally not being sent off to the frontlines in Vietnam. But just to be sure, Bush checked the box on his enlistment form saying he was unwilling to do time overseas. That box was a comfy failsafe that is no longer available to young people seduced into signing up as weekend warriors in Bush's National Guard."
