Let me say this and see if you can understand the logic in my point. I said war doctrine in this country should be as follows: If at the end of the day we're not willing to wipe out a culture to win then we shouldn't go to war. Thats as compelling a statement against war as it is for war. My Grandpa told me to never raise a fist to another man - but when life leaves you no other choice you give that person an ass kicking that he'll never forget. Thats similar to what I'm saying with regard to war doctrine. He wasn't saying "Michael, go out and kick peoples ass." He was advising against it but he was also smart enough to realize that sometimes life leaves us no choice. My grandpa was a great man. He died when I was in 3rd grade and he was the only grandparent I ever knew. But in those few years he made quite an impression on me

I'm bending over backwards to treat you fairly even though are opinions differ. That how politicians used to be in the 50's. I think it takes a real man to do what I'm doing. I shouldn't have 64 bookmarks - I should have 600 because in the end I have a HUGE heart and a good one. I'm not bragging - I'm saying something that you should respect from a person who doesn't agree with everything you say - that my friend takes a real man. Never question my manliness - I don't always say the right things but I'm the real deal. You may hate my opinions but I'd bet my house that you'd like me as a person.
