Only once? You don't think the JFK assassination was a coup?


No way, the simpler and obvious explanation is often the most truthful.
Maybe you, Oliver Stone and lots of conspiracy-crazed weirdos think it
really was a coup.

The Fighting Sullivans movie has started on the TCM channel, right now.
The meaning of that movie doesn't mean squat to the Pentagon.I am living
proof of that.

Yes, the fact that simulating insane to avoid the death-penalty for coward
actions in wartimes, doesn't have an impact on the guys in Pentagon. You're
a very good comedian here, but you cannot fool the professional foxes out there.

The Soviets were by far as stupid as you may claim. Where are these

and the heroic actions of General Smedley Butler.


Gen. Smedley Butler has expired suddenly, he was not in bad
health prior to that. So much for the conspiracy theories...

My mom and dad had six kids, four girls and two boys.My brother and I
Joined the U.S.Army, we were not drafted.We both were in Vietnam at the
same time, in 1964.I once caught the Chaplin Run (after getting
permission from my Company Commander, of course) one Sunday morning to
go visit my brother (he was eight years older than I) at Vung
Tau,Vietnam.He was a Helicopter Mechanic at Vung Tau.

Mrs.Sullivan (The Fighting Sullivans) had been hearing rumors around
town for some that her five sons had been killed in action before the
U.S.Navy broke the news to her.
