You can discuss war, but you're not in much of a position to decide about going to war. Think back to Winston Churchill's famous quote, "If you're not a liberal at 20 you have no heart, if you're not a conservative at 40 you have no brain." His point is that it's easy to spend other people's money, but once it's yours you generally change your mind. It's the same with war. If you haven't been to war it's easy to decide to go to war. When it's you that has to go, you think twice. It is almost universally agreed that Mr. Bush should've listened to Mr. Powell rather than Mr. Cheney before he invaded Iraq. The resulting problems are largely because Mr. Bush ignored the guy that had actually been in a war. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Find out how CFTicket can increase your company's customer support efficiency by 100% http://www.houseoffusion.com/banners/view.cfm?bannerid=49 Message: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=i:5:166806 Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/threads.cfm/5 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=s:5 Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.5 Donations & Support: http://www.houseoffusion.com/tiny.cfm/54
