Some people make statements such as, "Why don't you give Skip a break, he's

Joe of the sunken "Red Cloud." They say, "Well, at least he tried, he
deserves credit for that, doesn't he?"

Not and not! If you agree with the above statements then you should have
some serious doubts concerning your education and thought process. Giving
people credit for "trying" and "doing it" is the mentality of a liberal.
It's exactly what they teach in public schools these days. There are no
winners or losers, there are only those who try. Trying is the goal. Trying
is everything or at least the most important thing. Winning or losing,
amateur or professional, shoddy or workmanlike, etc., *are just some
inconsequential results of trying. This is such destructive thinking. Yet
many of you have bought into it as evidenced by your comments.

When somebody like Skip is given credit for being out there doing it,
where's the consideration of HOW he's doing it and if he's doing it
successfully or doing it sloppily, dangerously and ineptly. Is he a credit
to manhood and seamanship or is he an embarrassment?

When somebody else give Capt. Joe credit for trying, even in the face of
abject failure, they don't take into consideration the FACT that trying
without success is
failure. In effect they give credit for failure. A liberal brainwashing
seems to have rearranged *priorities to sap the will of individuals and to
take away the importance of individual initiative, professionalism and
success. Those satisfied with having none of these are mere shadows of men.
It's a crying shame.

Lets not forget that as a military man, McCain was a huge failure. He
was captured by the enemy.- Hide quoted text -

Following Dullards line of thinking then we all must assume that lady
teacher and crew lost on the space shuttle... failures. If you
explode..you fail.

John Paul Jones was a failure, KIA

Ol Honest Abe...failure. Can't properly attend theater

Shackelton,..lost boat in ice.

Opps ...he left out the crew of the USS Arizona.... lost the ship at
the dock for cripes sake!

What about the big looser Steve Fossett. Gone lost ship
Those Texans in the Alamo...defeated
Amelia Erhart...lost
Triston ..**** he sunk his boat 8 times
JKF..That dumb MF got his boat run over and sunk.
Bull Halsey lost several ships in a storm

But Neal Warren will never loose anything he has not allready lost.

He's like a castrated man in a whore house. He's there every night, he
see it done every night, he see how it should be done every night, but
he can't do it himself.
