"...We get hurt real bad and real soon and America comes to its Warrior senses and what masculinity that is left in our national soul is revived and the pussification of America is stopped dead in its tracks. America's Warrior ethos is saved."

I stay to the sidelines and learn from what you guys write most of the time, but, I just have to interject a little here.

After 9/11, I saw this happen in my community, and almost everywhere I looked in the country(for the most part), but, other than those that had to deal with it or looking to becoming part of it, it was short lived. I've met too many people who've forgotten why our military is Afghanistan and Iraq....

Someone once told me that America's memory is too short....that we - a young country compared to the rest of the world - act as a child does. We get slapped, we cry, we react, then we resume play as usual.

"Sheeple" is a word I have learned on these boards. Who shall become the sheperds? Sometimes it seems that it is those in Hollywood steering the flock.

Sorry for the small venting.....resuming PT.
