Some three decades ago or more, Hal Holbrook began his amazing portrayal of Samuel Clemens in "Mark Twain! Tonight!" I've been fortunate enough to have seen it four times. Don't miss it if it comes your way.

It also ran on TV right around 1969 or '70 and I taped it (audio only). In one act of the monologue, Holbrook drew on Twain to comment on the Vietnam War, still slogging onward at the time.

His comment via Mr. Twain was (after a suitable prelude),

"Even though the war be wrong, we are in it! We must fight it out. We cannot retire without dishonor!" Twain then comments on his own quote, "Why, not even a burglar could have said that better."

Let us not forget who the burglars are this time. Never, ever forget who and what mass-murdered so many people on September 11, 2001.

"Let us not forget who the burglars are this time. Never, ever forget who and what mass-murdered so many people on September 11, 2001. "


So why are we wasting time killing Iraqis when they had nada to do with 9-11? The clodhoppers they're fighting now had no effect on 9-11.

Onward to Saudi Arabia for 9-11 payback! Raze Riyadh!
