I don't know if we're made of that stuff anymore(certainly some of us are, but like previous generations??)

I believe through the ruinous influence of wealth and leisure and most importantly the LEFT, the kind of man that fought at Lexington, Inchon and Hue is gone.

I used to think this also. I think these things (except the left, that really is a huge and present danger) will, in the end, be the things that give us strength.

Those kind of men are still here, and would be in charge under those kind of circumstances.

True -- but we didn't think New Yorkers had the guts they showed after 9/11, either. Catastrophe, and survival, has a way of steeling a nation's back, and heart. A strong leader also figures into the equation.
