This post will not make me very popular with the thread but after reading several posts advocating military action in Iraq as a means to jack up oil prices, I'm compelled to comment. If you check my bio, you'll see I'm an AF officer so my viewpoint is a little different, but as much as I want my investments to rise, I hope its not at the expense of American lives in that godforesaken desert.

We all know the apprehension of watching our portfolios as we head into the close...think about the families who watch our fighters and bombers on CNN as they head into Bhagdad.

We all know the uneasiness of wondering whether we'll close the day red or green....think of the families who would wonder if their husband/father/brother would finish the day alive or dead.

Sorry to preach and my intent is not to start a political debate here. I'm only pointing out that somethings are more important than others.

There. I feel better. Thanks for listening.

Tom
