..Good thing she lives in LA....Well said [/ QUOTE ] Not really! Some of the 9/11 hijackers lived in the US at the time. If they want her, she's toast!! No one is safe any more. Several months ago, I was flying home from Newark NJ to Asheville NC. There were two muslims on this flight and they sat across the isle from me. They kept taking pictures out the window and talking to each other in their native tongue. I was so un-nerved at this that I watched them like a hawk the entire flight. When one got up ( to go to the restroom ), I was ready to spring up if he headed toward the front of the plane instead of the rear of the plane. Is that racial profiling? YOU BET! Guess what else? TOO DAMN BAD!!! ![]() Didn't another disaster almost happen again this past weekend? They won't stop! We must stop them. ![]()

Dr. Chong should be a presidential advisor. Makes a lot of sense. ---- Sounds as if we will be hitting France's shores once again someday soon.

I agree 210 percent with your thought. But as long as we are considered the worlds "Policeman" and if the bad guys start striking at us from there, I'm sure we would end up striking back, no matter where they are. ---- On another note, Vietnam was a French Province, so it would make the 4th time a charm.

Yes George, it was a French Province, but not nearly the
same as landing on French shores and ridding it of invaders.

Steve - I agree, yes France seems to have forgotten the sacrifices made by not only American and Allied forces during the World Wars, but their families. -- Personally, my father was wounded and captured in France during 1944 for 6 months before escaping from a POW camp. I served in Vietnam in 1972.

Here's a little more info on our French buddies......received this from a USMC Vietnam Vet...it really sums up the whole deal!
Dick Forrey of the Vietnam veterans Association wrote. "Recently we asked the local TARGET store to be a proud sponsor of the Vietnam Veterans Memorial Wall during our spring recognition event. We received the following reply from the local TARGET management: " Veterans do not meet our area of giving. We only donate to the arts, social action groups, gay & lesbian causes, and education" So, I'm thinking, if the Vietnam Veterans Memorial Wall and veterans in general, do not meet their donation criteria, then something is really wrong at this TARGET store. We weren't asking for thousands of dollars, not even hundreds, just a small sponsorship for a memorial remembrance. As a follow-up, I E-mailed the TARGET U.S. Corporate Headquarters and their response was the same! That is their national policy..... Then I looked into the company further. they will not allow the Marines to collect for Toys for Tots at any of their stores. During the Iraq deployment, they would not allow families of employees who were called up to continue their insurance coverage while they were in military service. Then I dug further...TARGET is a French owned corporation! Now, I'm thinking again..if TARGET cannot support American Veterans, then why should my family and I support their stores by spending our hard earned American dollars! And, have the profits sent to France! Without the American Vets where would France be today? "They would most likely be speaking German and trading in Deutsch Marks" Richard Forrey Vietnam Veterans Association How's that from our French friends....the fold like a cheap suit every time somebody pushes them. Think about all those guys buried in Flanders Fields and the thousands who made the ultimate sacrifice on Omaha Beach! Someone in our political leadership has to speak up and set the world straight!.It is long overdue....... wilma ![]()
