THE American people have been admirably patient with the United Nations' cynical diplomacy and French shenanigans. Now we are on the eve of war. And our troops need, and deserve, the patience of the American public as they fight a war without precedent to remove one of the world's worst dictators and free 20 million of our fellow human beings. In a perfect world, major combat operations could be over in less than a week. But we do not live in a perfect world.

"(What Our Fighting Men And Women Need From Us)"

The title is in error.

Although it is popular amongst Feminist to put the sacrifices of women in war-time on a par with those of men, the fact is, women don't go into combat. Rather, they support our fighting men. And it is to those men that we all owe our freedoms.

The Equality Feminists are enraged when one points out that fact. The idea that women are indebted or dependent on men in any way, is repugnant to them.

God bless America's fighting men and the women who support them.
