Default Domino theory..again

Interesting op-ed.
I'm just putting it up because it might provide "food for thought".
Seems we've heard the "domino theory" in the past.

Timm, with our men and women dying over there, with no solution in sight, this is one of the most important issues of the day-- what would you prefer-- he post endless articles about Paris Hilton and her latest human pet?

Sadly, I think most of America would prefer that, now that I think about it...

How are you, by the way?

GR: that's SOME choice you give me! It's a great board and DTS has merit....so that's my answer. I'm hanging in there otherwise...just trying to sort everything out for Christmas. Best Timm

Timm,
Obviously you'd rather keep your head firmly planted in the sand.
"Chewing the cud" involves grass. Speaking of which, you should cut down on smoking it.
Seems that many people are concerned about the "direction" our great country is headed under the "leadership" of the emporer they voted for.
Don't blame me for calling attention to his failure.
I didn't create it, he did.
I also never voted for the phoney (stay the course) cowboy.
Yes, it's a "fun" topic. I get to remind the idiots of the consequences of their decisions. Now, if only the "decider" could decide.

Again, if you have nothing to comment on concerning the "topic", either put your head back under the sand, maybe it will go away (seems to be Dubbya's "thinking lately), or better yet...don't comment at all. In the words of the Fogerty song..."It ain't me, babe, it ain't me! I ain't no fortunate son!"
Leave me out of your delusion, Timm.
Thx.
DTS

DTS: you're quick to assume I'm attacking you,but I'm not. I'm just saying you have so much more to offer us than to kick Bushes butt every other day. Yeah..I'm probably sensitive to it more than most...but only because I see these faliures as lost opportunities to bring America Back to greatness! And I mourn every day the lost lives of our great people in the service. Also...I don't think it's fair of you to call me an idiot for using a voting booth to voice my choice. What happened to the gentle horseloving DTS?

Timm,
Thanks for the clarification.
I agree that America is on the wrong track. Day by day our great country is diminished. The lost lives spent on this stupidity is beyond my tears.
So if bringing awareness to the situation on a little corner of the internet in an "off topic" room at a horse racing site generates some consciousness,
I'll do it.
Here's a quote...
"The greatest tragedy that allows the continuance of injustice, is for good men (and women) to remain silent."

I mourn for ALL the lost lives, military, civilian, and those that endure their loss.
Peace.
