OT Stolen from Rec.Backcountry

In any case, I'd like to take this politically motivated post as an
opportunity to say thanks to all who have served in our military. I don't
see that as some kind of political football, but as a sacrifice I
appreciate. Thanks, guys Tim

Thanks, Tim. Blessed are the cheesemakers!"

When will this start? I just LOVE a parade. ;-)

On inauguration day, let's march down to the Federal Building, I'll carry
my
'Impeach Bush Now' sign, you can carry your 'Get Over It' sign. We'll
stage
a fight for the cameras, then go get us a well earned beer or 2 or 3.

You know, if we confess to some lurid, internet, three way love affair,
Jerry Springer will not only give us a well deserved beer or two but a
flight to where ever it is and dinner and a room and all kinds of free
stuff. And probably all the beer we can drink.

Bill Gates couldn't afford that, much less Springer.

Actually, one of the (many) things that made me gag during the recent
election campaign was Kerry going on about "defending" his country. Who
was he defending it against? Hordes of little men in black pyjamas who
were sweeping through New England?

No. Actually it was one wounded VC teenager who was fleeing for his life and
Kerry shot him in the back and received a SS.

So get used to it. There will be protests at the inauguration,
there will be calls for impeachment, there will be hell-raising
from sea to shining sea and some of it will appear here in your
favorite fishing group.

The one thing I found absolutely shocking in Fahrenheit 9/11 was the
prtotests going on at the last inauguration that the press chose not to
cover

Dave, IMHO you really should give this a rest. It serves no purpose.
I've never served in the military and have certainly never been in a
"kill or be killed" weapons exchange, but I can only imagine the horror
and fear that accompanies that sort of situation. The political
campaigns to smear both candidates military records sickened me. I'm
sure Kerry did what he thought he had to do at the time based on his
circumstances, and neither you nor I will know for sure what warranted
his actions.

I disliked Kerry's actions after he returned from war, his stances on
certain issues, and especially his Senate voting record, but I see no
reason to question his history while in the military. In fact, at this
point, I see no value in discussing ANY of this. The election is over -
time to move forward.

Hmmmm. . . haven't there been protests at *every* inauguration? Probably
not newsworthy (read: violent and loud) enough to cover.

well, there was *one* little incident at mine, but it was relatively
innocuous, and the minister of interior placidity (gen'l j.m. roberts)
handled it quite effectively.
