"Eisboch" wrote in message ... "Don White" wrote in message ... wrote in message ... I think I finally got an ID on my Grandfathers Boat. Ever heard of a Waymouth?. An older fishing charter Captain down the Lake from me ID'd it. Dont know if it's positive, but he swears that's what it is. Gonna do a google on it, and see if I get a hit. Can't say I have. Is it spelled Waymouth or Weymouth? S. The Brits have a bad habit of misspelling many words. Eisboch I happen to know that you also have a Weymouth in MA. (we have one here in NS of course). A future professional hockey player named Bobby Sheehan, who was in my grade 12 class when he played his junior hockey here, came from there. As a matter of fact, I believe our village got it's name from the Loyalists who left Mass in the mid 1700s when the ungrateful rabble was acting up.. http://www.weymouthnovascotia.com/ My gawd. You sure do know your geography. And when it came time to fight for what's right, the pansies ran north. |

You still do. Down here we show respect a different way. Give her a pat on the butt and a couple of CDs and we're good. You can't say we don't have class. |

Horsepuckey. By far, the majority that fled did so because they didn't want to expose themselves to any danger or felt they could pick and choose their constitutional obligations. Lot's of stories made up, but those are the real reasons. I lived it, as did you. Let's not re-write history to serve your purpose. True conscientious objectors stayed and made their cases. Some won and some lost. Those that lost paid their dues in other ways. They deserve respect. Eisboch |

Eisboch My "take" on the war against vietnam is a lot stronger than the view I presented, which I heard from more than a few contemporaries. Sometimes the real reasons and history of why nations get themselves involved in wars fade out of consciousness. They sure have for Vietnam. I think we are getting ourselves deeper and deeper in the crap in Afghanistan and Pakistan. Modern foreign occupiers/invaders have not had a lot of success dealing with Afghanistan. Pakistan is a horror of a whole different magnitude because of its nuclear weapons. What *we* are supposed to do with either of these failed countries is beyond my understanding. Neither of the governments of those countries have the ability to withstand religious zealots. Hell, Pakistan was founded by religious zealots. When we finally leave Iraq, whenever that is, it, too, will slide back into failed nation status, ripe for the plucking by the religious zealots. |

Sometimes the real reasons and history of why nations get themselves involved in wars fade out of consciousness. They sure have for Vietnam. "Reasons" then and now are two entirely different things. When pressed for a decision, you have to act on the information you have at the time. I don't find fault with anyone who does so in good faith, even if they are found to be in error in history's hindsight.

I agree with you and am not critical of Obama's actions thus far in Pakistan. It's a serious problem and a real risk to our national security and that of our allies. I wouldn't want his job. But my point was that few of these problems are really as simple as the Monday morning quarterbacks make them out to be. Eisboch |
