Rather interesting John. Protecting whom from what? Weapons of mass deception?
There's a time for assault and a time for a long seige. Unfortuantely, your boys don't know how to differentiate between the hands on a clock and have swept the world into a miasma of distortion. I don't think that there is a soul on this list who wouldn't agree to some extent or another that a military for defense is a prudent recourse. However, what you will find is that more people than not believe that use of the military under false pretenses and the manufacture of fear and fear mongoring in order to substantiate those false pretenses is a coward's behavior, the behavior of those with an agenda of manipulation and control, the behavior of the deranged, or all of the above. Definition Chickenhawk - n. - A person enthusiastic about war, provided someone else fights it; particularly when that enthusiasm is undimmed by personal experience with war; most emphatically when that lack of experience came in spite of ample opportunity in that person's youth. http://www.nhgazette.com/cgi-bin/NHGstore.cgi?user_action=detail&catalogno=CHDB_about Don't hesitate to hit up their home page as well and then peruse from there. It appears that you are in dire need of a daily dose of humour to pull you out of your Limbaughtic state of malease. (It's a healthier cure than prescription pain killers, which numb the mind as well as the pain.) As for that sign off of yours... "Regards from Earth?" You might want to start circumnavigating those fumes exuding from the sewage pit of those who brought us Weapons of Mass Deception. The inevitable result of avoiding such caution is to quickly find your feet no longer anchored to terra firma. Skittering off into the ozone, perhaps, but certainly not anchored.
