Many thanks, nopardons,
It was funny, to see the reaction on their faces, to being told that THEY should be the ones "up against the wall ... " ! hehehehehe ROTFLMAO!!!!! I STILL like to raise cain with these peaceniks... I manage to get into arguments with liberals while putting gas into the car...seems like a "Viet Vets of America Life Member" patch, and a "NRA Patron Member" patch, with the US flag on the sleeve, and a FR ball cap does wonders to start WWIII in front of the convenience store ;-)
Reverse snobbery is an "in" joke in our family. My parents, who are alive and well in their 80's still kid around about it, but we really don't mean this seriously. You should hear my father rail about union negotiations (He, like I, cast our lot with management from day one heheh). I really don't carry an open chip on my shoulder about success/wealth/etc, it's just we have managed to perfect the "middle class" image in our family (Heck, I even own some bowling shirts, used to bowl with a league) over the years regardless of what our situation was. I've managed to do pretty well for my family and myself over the years, and am one confirmed capitalist (VBG).... I enjoyed your comments to no end about "standing em up against the wall". I have uttered the same statement many, many times...sometimes with more than a little seriousness in my comments..its a good thing that it wasn't in the PC climate we have today..... would have wound up on a lot of "persona non grata" lists.....

ROTFLOL ! I'm SO happy to know that you and I have shared in this most self gratifying endeavor. I think that I probably had a more startling effect on the damned protestors, since, at that time, I was a well dressed young woman , who was wearing makeup, had my hair done, was also wearing jewelry, and NOT in the least , the sort one might imagine saying that kind of thing ; with venom dripping from each word. : ^ ) You know, as well as I do, that the very people who used to spit on returning vets, and scream that " wall ..." phrase , were the beginnings of the PC police. They could say anything, but WE could not; in their benighted, tiny brains.
Good ; I am delighted that you and your's are doing well ! Like all Conservatives, I want EVERYONE to work hard AND do very well ! : - )
