If you really think Iraq will the number #1 issue to the majority of
folks when they're actually dimpling chads, you need about 5 more years
study toward that 4-year PoliSci degree. And if you think people are
completely honest and forthright with pollsters, you need 6 more
years...
The war may not be issue #1 with the "trust fund baby" crowd
you hang with but out in the heartland where the military is
seen as a bootstrap

You mean in the land of red-state morons?

Yep, exactly. Poignant picture on the front page of today's
Times and an article on the non-stop, booming military funeral
business at Arlington National. People care, they may be morons
but they care about their dead soldiers. And even red-state
morons can figure out that $4 billion a week is a lot of money
to pay for our soldiers to have a dangerous ringside seat to
an Islamic civil war.

And I suspect that I knew more people killed, or know more people
who had friends and family killed or injured, than "most" friends of
your friends...and that goes back to Gulf War 1.

Hang out with the National Guard down to the local watering
hole quite often do you ? LOL !! You're so full of **** you're
almost endearing.

FWIW, my losing friends in Gulf Wars I & II began in Gulf War I with
David Herr, a friend since high school, and since I'm certain it hasn't
ended, I can't speak to that.

LOL !! You're so full of **** you're almost endearing.

And you don't even begin to have slightest idea of what you speak.

Don't really care if this helps or not,

Oh, yes I do. You're not really gonna try to claim you're
not full of ****, are you ? Too late for that, Richard.
There's Google, ya know.

Nah, not so much. But perhaps you can help if you're so
inclined. I have some crab cakes I'm about to serve over
a bed of mixed greens. I was going to make a remoulade but
discovered too late that I have no creole mustard. Can't
make a remoulade without creole mustard. So then I'm thinking
maybe Caesar dressing, I have anchovies, parmesan, eggs etc.
but I'm using mixed greens from Saturday's Farmer's Market
while they're still good and Caesar is really better with
romaine not mixed greens. So, if you had crab cakes you wanted
to serve over mixed greens and remoulade was a no go, what
would you do ?

Good Lord, you are insane! Creole remoulade on crab cakes, served on a
salad? I'd not do it. OTOH, are you talking about crab
"patties"/"dressing?" If so, a little _real_ mayo, bottled or fresh,
finely minced onions, parsley if you've got it, fresh or dried, a little
horseradish, knife-pureed garlic and salt, black pepper, a little Lea
and Perrin, a coupla drops of Tabasco or Crystal, a coupla drops of
sherry if the mayo was bottled, and some Tony's or Old Bay. A light
vinaigrette on the greens, add the patty, and top it with a dollop of
the sauce.

HTH,

Actually, it was at the southern Mississippi school of law and auto
salvage.

Something else for you to aspire to.
