The threat of war kept people like John Herring in uniform long enough

Harry, it's 40 degrees here in Rochester. It's gotta be even warmer in your
neck of the woods. Turn off the computer. Get outside.

It's 43F here. As soon as my bride rolls out of bed and out of the
shower, we're (I'm told) heading out to the malls for another day of
adventure, package-toting and being trampled by out-of-control women.

I got up at my usual 6 am, and spent the morning doing entirely useful
chores, such as emptying and filling the DW, cleaning off the glass and
pieces and parts of the gas cooktop, feeding and watering the critters,
wrestling with Bob, the family bobcat, and watching the geese fly overhead.

Today, I hope, we're heading to the mall where the LL Bean store is
located, since I need a coat. There are three stores in that entire mall
I'll go into: LL Bean, Apple Computer Store, and Restoration Hardware.
Oh...and Harry & David's. And there must be 200 stores in that mall. And
one really good pizza place.

Mall??? On a day like this? That's insane. Drug her and take her fishing.

I suspect that if you see Harry say this, he's being exquisitely
sarcastic.
NOYB, however, isn't kidding at all. Of course, that'll change the moment
one of his kids is old enough to join the military.

Actually it was the other way. Harry was not being sarcastic. NOYB
probably was.

Watch carefully. NOYB repeats this idea a few times a week in various
discussions. Either he's just monkeying with the assembled masses, or he
actually believes his spew. My theory: 10% of the time, it's the former, and
90% the latter.

He's monkeying with the masses, and it worked

Uh, in this household, she is the doctor and in control of the drugs. I
get to take a daily multi-vitamin.

I don't know what your reference is, but, immediately after 9-11, when
we were *told* by our government that Afghanistan as a government and a
country was directly involved, I suggested we nuke the country. In short
order, facts began rolling in and I changed my mind, and stated that

The simple fact that you seriously suggested that we nuke Afghanistan
when you thought that they, as a government and country, were directly
involved is what I was talking about. On the other hand, I believe that
even if it were Afghani military fighter planes that somehow flew into
the WTC, Pentagon and a field in PA, it still wouldn't justify nuking
the country.

[...]

I always get a kick out of the rabid righties here who will point out
something political I may have posted a year ago or five years ago and
gleefully state that I must be a hypocrite because I have changed my mind.

You changed your mind about nuking Afghanistan when you found out that
the government didn't directly execute the attacks. You haven't said
you changed your mind about nuking the country if it turned out that
there were directly involved in the attacks.

Check out their admitted agenda. It explains a lot.

The JohnHs and NOYBs don't want to read that stuff. It would be too horrible
to believe, like being told your whole family had been killed in a car
accident.

NOYB has read it, and has stated that he agrees with the general principles.

I don't have a problem with NOYB's opinion. He's less hypocritial than a lot of
people. I disagree that the road to maximum American prosperity is to
obliterate the governments of selected nations around the world (Iraq, Iran,
Syria, and N. Korea) or that pursuing such a course is morally
justifiable......but you have to respect people courageous enough to admit that
they actually endorse the strategy. There is enough room in the world for more
than a single opinion.

With what part of the Statement of Principles of the New American
Century do you disagree? I've asked Chuck this question, but he's not,
to the best of my knowledge, answered.
