And a little more perspective war is not waged like it was in 1943 when thousands of troops from each side dug in and did battle yards apart but I guess you think we overlooked that. Additionally Body armour which wasnt around in 1943 has cut down on the mortality rate as has advances in medicine. You want real perspective. Troops coming back from this war with missing limbs is twice that of previous wars.

Still waiting for you to enlighten us as to what defines "Victory" on the "War on Terror"

Nice... Nascar wouldn't have rolled over and surrendered so easily. Good luck this weekend and I mean that. On the selections thread you are cool. Here not so much.

it's cause of all those WW II guys that we all have it so easy. If we had half their balls, we'd be lucky. I'm not sure what they would say if they were in line at the supermarket and watched how 90% of the people were paying with Cards that the Govt supplies for free.

And what would they be saying about Banksters and their tens of millions of dollars of compensation going broke and getting a handout from the government. No one does that for me when I fuk up at the track.

they wouldn't say anything, they'd take them out back and beat a little sense into them.

Hey you too. Might be over there today as a prep for tomorrow.

I suspect I may be a bit jaded as to the evil bankers/lawyers theory as I grew up among them and find most to be salt of the earth types sans my father. lol

The only dirty types I knew was a convicted Cook County judge and a mob hit man who himself was hit.
