Title: Just in case
Post by JeffB on Oct 12^th, 2006, 11:43am

In case we find ourselves starting to believe all the anti-American
> sentiment and negativity, we should remember England's Prime
Minister
> Tony Blair's words during a recent interview. When asked by one of
> his Parliament members why he believes so much in America , he
said:
> "A simple way to take measure of a country is to look at how many
> want in ... and how many want out." ~~~~~~~~~~~~~
> Only two defining forces have ever offered to die for you:
>
> 1. Jesus Christ
> 2. The American G. I.
>
> One died for your soul, the other for your freedom.

It would be nice if only 10% of the rest of the world saw us that way. Dick

:o Hey, Jeffb, don't I know you from somewhere? Did you go to high school in Torrance? I think you dated some blonde who was madly in love with you. I remember you were pretty damn hot. Do you still have that gorgeous dark hair? I remember that smile and those dimples of yours were pretty hard to resist. I am sure our paths crossed at a party or two. Quarters anyone?

I hadn't read that statement yet so thanks for posting it. It hits pretty close to home for me because my dad is a WWII vet. He was a tail-gunner in a B-26 Marauder and was stationed in both England and France. For England, I have all the respect in the world. For France, ptuiii--I spit on them. They would've been Heil-ing Hitler along with most of the world if it wasn't for us and England, and all they do is undermine everything we try to do. The REAL flag of France is a white handkerchief. OK--I'm done now. Sorry for the vent, but who better to take my frustration over this CONSTANT SHADOW out on than the French?

Its ironic that you would take out your frustration on something or someone you consider weak. You are a Republican, right?
Keep in mind, if it weren't for the French in the American Revolution, we would all be speaking English right now.
