    Joe,
    I know that you mean well. American men have been raised to protect women. To shelter them from danger. But no they longer seem to want that sort of protection. I have a broken finger from being a gentleman and opening a door for a very liberated woman. She slammed it on my finger (Not on purpose of course) Saying "I'm perfectly capable of opening my own door."

    Given the same environment as the Chinese peasant woman, they'd prove to be better fiercer soldiers than men.Chairman Mao discovered that on the long march across China in 1937.They proved better than the men. As a consequence, Mao had an all woman honor guard. He said: "Once they have a taste of blood, nothing will stop them."

    So I say give them the chance. If they want to fight, let them. Until they have gained the fiber of the Chinese peasant woman, let them have their own combat units trained and lead by women. See that it remains voluntary.
  • The liberals are back to the "World Community" tune.

    This reply is not necessarity to jveritas. It is an appeal to all right minded conservative no matter what your discipline might be. No right minded American, liberal or concervative hates bush. Liberal are just as much a part of this great nation as conservatives, they simply have a different point of view. That's what America is all about. A true America listens to all sides and then draws his own opinion. Some of his views might be considered liberal and others conservative. He is free to change his opinion whenever he chooses. He must never be cohersed into accepting a view against his will. Some people do that. They are opportunists. I remember those at the university who would try to find out what a political science or social scientist professor's views were and then write their term papers accordingly. There are those who will agree with their boss no matter what he says. These are not true Americans. They are syncopaths.

    I have discussed our invasion of Iraq with any number of people. Some are against it, but are afraid to admit it for fear of being unpatriotic and not supporting the troops. Nonsense this is America. Stop being a coward. Say whatever you think. Otherwise we might as well be a fascist state like China where one has good reason to be afraid to say what he or she thinks about their leaders. Critizing Bush is healthy. It's American. It's democratic. It's necessary. It is what our constitution is all about. God bless America
