[strela]

The irony is rich

Then I will happily assume that you and/or your family have already sent a generous shipment of 100 percent American-made goods to our heroes, as I and others have. The real "irony" in this case would be to find out that neither you nor your family sent anything at all, preferring instead only to make cheap brownie points with isolationists at the expense of those who have posted to this thread. But that didn't happen, did it?

Thanks in advance for your generosity.

[Revelation 911]

relax strela - I didnt call into question anyones generosity --I merely thought it ironic that in our zeal to ease thier plight we'd purchase chinese made goods.

Call me isolationist - rather I consider it anti slavery domestic sourcing.

You are free to prop up a communist dictator if you like......

I will kindly ask you to provide me an address so I can commence sending copious amounts of hickory smoked beef jerky, doritos and stewarts soda pop.
