Well, I'm afraid there aren't enough conservative (D's) to carry the day. Not enough (L's) either. So, guess (R's) will have to do.

Jim, when did you last give in to the highest bidder?

There is America, there is the Constitution, and there are those who gave their lives, fortune and all for the Republic, not the democracy.

Least you feel I haven't given my all, I carry scars from a gunshot wound while piloting a U.S. Army helicopter in Laos.

I do not wear my patiotism on my sleeve, but Hoverbug is the designation given to those who solo in a U.S. Army helicopter before becoming a pilot.

Two days before being shot, I was shot down. Two days before that I did things that awarded me a Silver Star. And yet I climbed back into a helicopter to futher my country's objectives for which I was shot.

You want someone who has paid the price. Here I am.

You go ahead and take the easy way out. If I'd taken the easy way, I'd have been in Canada drinking beer instead of getting my ass shot off in Laos.

Enjoy the easy way out Jim.

Hb
