Well with respect Bunker— let me assure you that we are through with occupying countries illegally and fighting for NEO CONs. Those days are truly over, We are now about AMERICA—AMERICAN WORKERS and American values and culture. I don’t give a tinkers damn about the kurds!!

I will argue the point for sake of arguing.- I like a good tete a` tete.

“We dare not forget today that we are the heirs of that first revolution. Let the word go forth from this time and place, to friend and foe alike, that the torch has been passed to a new generation of Americans—born in this century, tempered by war, disciplined by a hard and bitter peace, proud of our ancient heritage—and unwilling to witness or permit the slow undoing of those human rights to which this nation has always been committed, and to which we are committed today at home and around the world.

Let every nation know, whether it wishes us well or ill, that we shall pay any price, bear any burden, meet any hardship, support any friend, oppose any foe to assure the survival and the success of liberty.” John F. Kennedy
Jam 20,1961

Oh it`s a “tinker`s dam” coz my grandfather was a tinker. He used a bolt or screw to plug a hole in a pot or pan Then he would solder it shut. I actually have a pan tinkered by my grandfather with a “tinker`s dam” in it. It`s “dam”, not damn”. I witnessed my grandfather do this repair in 1948.
