Scondly:Seeing by seeing all these"anti" madmen doing their outmost efforts by giving comfort to the enemy by offering straws of hope to cling to. Finaly,I was also deeply ashamed by the antics of my own little country:(b)elgium, now toadying up to our historical enemies:(f)rance and (g)ermany and trying to thwart American plans.America that liberated us twice from the "BOCHE" in WW I and WW II and saved our people from starvation after the conflicts. A slogan popped in my mind for some of your congress men ,performers and media mind benders:"Ask not what I am doing against my country ,but ask what can I suck out of it"I hope and pray that you will soon be relieved and return your hero's back to their families at home. ---------------end message---------------------- After seeing the cartoon of Mr.Rumsfelt skating on a couple tanks another one came to mind:(I Hope you have a cartoonist on board?)
