For my money, the time for dissidence is past. We are at war and American
youth are dieing. They are dieing because the politicians we elected are
responsible for them being there and being in the situations they find
themselves. Whether we believe in the reasons for being there is now
irrelevant. Many are the feeling and my beliefs concerning war. If one has
been on the receiving end of war instead of a platitude of beliefs they will not
ever want war for themselves or others.
But the most dispicable thing that this country has ever done was not support
our troops from the VN war. But the most dispicable thing beyond that was
our own lack of support was not making a bunch of professional politicians do
their duty to those willing to support our policies, right or wrong. I, for this
reason don't trust any politician for any reason. I'm sorry to say that I
don't trust our nation. As a politician's goal in life to to stay in Washington,
we could control this situation. God help us if we let them play this dispicable
game of monopoly or chess with the lives of our youth.
The southern difinition of trash describes (in my opinion) those who will not
support someone who is doing that which we ask of them.
Oh well, I've done it again. My wife would say that part of our culture is the
right to believe as we wish. She is right, so I have stated my beliefs.
However she would mean for me to keep my opinions to my self.
