one nuclear event on us soil would destabilize the economy and make those worthless paper dollars truly worthless. the only thing backing the dollar is the sabre, and it's appearing that world communists from within have done far more to 'dull' the sabre. am i scared of chicoms? not remotely. i just wish mccarthy and mcarthur had been allowed to finish their missions.

No kidding... the bridges of the River should've been bombed at the OUTSET, and MacArthur should've been free to use nukes on any Chinese troops within a week's march of the border. We should've taught them the same lesson the Japanese and Germans were taught. (Though I suspect he would've liked to go after the Russkis too and I think that would've been a bit too much to bite off at one time!) Now I or my children or grandchildren will likely pay for our failure to do so...and we'll be talking about deaths to the tune of millions, not hundreds or thousands... ugh.
