Richard, I hope that you didn't think that I had taken offense to anything that you said, because I didn't. I agree with almost all of your points.

And it was ME that said something about Tobey Keith, not Richard. And I only said it because I happen to like the song what he had to say in it. It never entered my mind to think that TK had or has any political agenda.

Ann, I think everyone has the right speak as they please, but had better have a thicker skin than you do when someone says something that you don't agree with.

Finally, I guess ultimately what should happen then is to have the Americans go in and remove Saddam and just let everyone else fend for themselves and we can just live and let live and the rest of the world can live and let live also. We'll all just stay out of everyone else's business and if a country falls, they fall and that's just too bad and if others make a bundle of money and everything is hunky dorey then great and there it shall be. If America should stay out of other countries militarily, then I guess that we shouldn't have to send aid to other countries...not that I think that that's a good idea, but I also think that the US should be able to send troops in too.
