But seriously: I think you should vote for a president who actually
knows what war is and has experienced one.


Maybe you should start to look for a president who knows what peace is
and how to achieve it? Just an opinion from the rest of the world.

Bull****. "The rest of the world" better wake up and realize there is
a global war going on, and ignoring it isn't going to make it go away.


Couldn't agree more. Though it has been going on for quite some time
now, it has been getting substantially stronger lately. It goes by
many names: "class war", "imperialism", "colonialism", "genocide".
Oh yes, "war on terror", too.

On a global scale, it is yielding many 9/11's _a day_.



As far as I'm concerned, peace through superior firepower suits me
fine.


Superior ? Are you planing to _nuke_ the pentagon ? The FMI ? The
European Round Table ? Or are you referring to the kids getting
blown to pieces while "enduring" freedom shock-and-awe style ?



Wait until the suicide bombers blow up a bank in Zurich...


You are absolutely right. The possibility for massive terrorism is
real and rising sharply, thanks in no small part to the policies of
the folks currently holding office in Washington. One more reason to
press for an end to the madness.



Now, can we get back to soaring?


I'd love to. In a peaceful world, that is. The last time i sat in a
glider, B52's were taken to fly over on their tour of rampage. Sort
of takes the pleasure out of the ride...
