"There Are no more Pants"
*I heard that expression yesterday From my GodMother for the first time. I
think that sums things up nicely. Where have all the "Men", The
Cigar chomping Leaders gone. And Don't have a cow Ladies. Where have the
strong Woman gone also. There were so many Woman that cut so many trails so
these whiny feminazis could spend their lives emasculating our young boys
and girls. Good grief.*

his being awarded the Medal of Honor.
*Would someone please remind me again how many of today's Hollywood elite
put their careers on hold to enlist in Iraq or Afghanistan? *
*The only one who even comes close was Pat Tillman
<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pat_Tillman>, who turned down a contract
offer of $3.6 million over three years from the Arizona Cardinals to enlist
in the US Army after September, 11, 2001 and serve as a Ranger in
Afghanistan, where he died in 2004. But rather than being lauded for his
choice and his decision to put his country before his career, he was mocked
and derided by many of his peers and the Left.*
*Ladies and Gentlemen, I submit to you that this is not the America today
that it was seventy years ago. And I, for one, am saddened.*
