What a major hit!!!

OT or not, this is terrific news for everyone, boaters included. ;-)

Every time we wave the "Mission Accomplished" banner we find out that we
shouldn't be yelling "YAHOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!" quite so loudly.




Remind me again where I said or referenced anything about "mission
accomplished"?

Can you not enjoy the moment Jim and keep the politics out of this?



There was no reference to politics.

No, I cannot "enjoy the moment", what is there to enjoy?

An evil man was killed, along with many thousands of innocent people.
Tomorrow will be a violent one. Many will die violent deaths, both the
guilty and the innocent.

I find it all hard to "enjoy."


Let's see...this death was on the news at least by 6 o'clock AM yesterday,
and was repeated at least every ten minutes throughout the day. Sometime
yesterday evening, Mys terry quotes JimH's post which had just been made.
The post was OT, about an inflammatory subject, and self-guaranteed to
quickly become a political flamefest, which it did.

Now you are being castigated for not keeping 'politics' out of a
politically oriented post. Surely the post was meant to be much more than
informative, unless the OP thought every one had been in a cocoon all day.



sigh

No matter how you want to spin it my post was not politically motivated and
had nothing to do with politics.

However, you and others choice to make it so.

Do you have anything to offer here besides netcopping, negative posts and
recipe postings John?


What the hell are you talking about?

YOU said, "Can't I keep the politics out of this?" I didn't bring up
politics, just the sad fact that there's nothing to be so happy about.

There are no victories, no one wins a religious war. Everyone looses.

There will be no winning this war. Eventually we will pull out, as we
did in Viet Nam. There will always be people who will say that we could
have won, if only we had fought harder.

"Those damn liberals. . ." But liberals have nothing to do with the
FACT that in all of history, there is NO such thing as a victory in a
religious war.
