We can "win" many more wars than just three at the same time
by landing on a flight deck and declaring 'mission accomplished.' Why haven't the troops come home if we have 'won' the war.? Or is it that from now on frontal engagements will not be fought anymore and where we build a defensive position down town and only venture out in daylight when CNN passes by.

It's just that YOU are better at it than we EVER were. But, 8 years too late, WE are now taking care of puppy-dog Tony. Just make sure YOU do likewise with George. And we will BOTH get on fine with each other. Only three more to sort out - Teheran, Pyongyang and finally Beijing. Your Coalition and Tea Party Colleague - ---- Reg. Hi Reg, I suppose I understand what you meant, although I do not agree that the United States is or was imperialistic the way England was, and we were never as vile to each other, even in our own short Civil War. The most land we ask for from our conqured or liberated is enough to bury our dead on. That is certainly not Britain's history. And I am absolutely sure that neither you nor any Brit has any idea how you could be so absolutely vile to each other in your own country, Christian against Christian (yeh right!). Only the Africans behave as badly to each other as the Irish Protestants and Catholics do. Just so you know, conservatives have already sent President Bush a strong message, and he is aware that a large majority of his supporters expect *major* changes in his policies, *after* he is re-elected. In my opinion, nothing that Kerry said sounded convincing with regard to the nuclear proliferation problem. Of course the United States is strong enough to fight and win two major wars on separate continents at the same time. We could fight and win three in fact. Just don't expect the kind of compassion in avoiding civilian casualties or surgical strikes that target structural rather than human assets in that event. No sane people in the world want to see things come to that, especially the Chinese. There are however several insane people in the world, namely the leader of North Korea, and the entire nation of islam. "Friends" like France would still be useful enough, if for just one time, they could protect their *own* land in a world war, and not require more help at that from the US and Great Britain. ;-) Jack |
