What song best sums up the previous year?

Charlie 101- Just because someone "did'nt serve" it doesn't mean they don't love their country or that they are cowards. People are entitled to their opinions- even those different than yours.

By the way- I didn't serve either. Never wanted to sign up. By your criteria for patriotism and bravery, I'm a coward as well. Never mind the fact that my Dad was killed in the line of duty in the US Navy in '64, and I'm a political conservative.

Come on, let's calm down a bit buddy. Insulting longtime members on this forum isn't going to gain you any new friends :)

If freedom of speech is so offensive to you... rather than attacking someone for having a different opinion, move to North Korea where no one is allowed to have an opinion that opposes the government. That will be much more to your liking.

Charlie101: 11 posts, 11 insults. Surely, you have more to offer this community, don't you?

Dan, thank you for the support. I sure hope we get the chance to meet someday. That would be a real treat for me.

"First we kill all the Jews, then we come and kill you!" - Omar, student at Western Mich. Univ. when asked why he was going back to the Mideast during mid-session - 1972

"He has gone back home to kill Jews." - Answer from Nabil when asked where his brother was who hadn't been to our kickboxing club for a couple of weeks - 1983

"Saddam is on the march! Mike has gone back home to help drive Israel into the sea!" - Abdu at the video store when asked where his brother was who usually works the counter - 1990

"Mr. Hitler, you are doing some very good things here. But you must become more efficient and forceful in your dealings with the Jews." - High ranking Palestinian imam while visiting Germany during WWII.

Anyone see a pattern here? And you think us Americans have bad attitudes!!

Tom,
Will you clarify the point you are making? I believe I get what you're saying, but don't want to assume that I do.
Thanks,
Howard
