chuck,

Here's something I love. A Marine telling the truth. How refreshing. How rare.

The Short:
fas.org

And the Long of it:
lexrex.com

One of the most decorated Marines in history, Smedley Butler was an American hero. After he got out of the service of the bankers and the corporations and started telling the truth about the evils of militarism and how little military aggression has to do with the ideals that this nation was founded upon.

I do not hate much except ignorance, arrogance and excessive nationalism/militarism.

Most of which you seem to either personify or promote. ;')

Have a PEACEFUL holiday, chuck. Don't shoot anybody, OK?

Salaam Aleikum, Ray
