I am really worried

[Old Seabee]

I see what's happening to my country and recall a statement made by a little fat man, some of you might also remember. "We will bury you, we don't have to invade the United States, we will destroy you from within." Am I nuts or dreaming what's going on?

[DMZ-LT]

All of the above ! Keep movin your doing fine.

What LT said.

I used to be disgusted too.

LT said, "Keep movin'!"

You're not nuts nor dreaming,...even though America now suffering one-helluva-bad-nightmare.
Just hang-in-there & hope for the best, like the rest of us. There's little one can do.

Hey,...and if lucky,...we might even return back to being A Representative Republic AGAIN?
Hey,...you never know?

Also, is Kruschev still alive? He must be since only: "The Good die young".
Cranky old farts like Carter usually go on forever,...even in Russia.

Neil,

Nikita Khrushchev was born in 1894.

He removed from power by the Soviets in 1964

and died in 1971.

[reconeil]

Thanks, Steve.
Guess that Old Fart Nikita didn't break any geriatric records,...and only made it to 70.

Still,...have any idea of one obviously hell-bent helping Kruschev's prophecy pan-out
before his dying, and/or ex-President Jimmy Carter's age?

That perpetually anti-America & always pro-enemies like: "Hanoi Jane Fonda" dirt-bag,
must actually be older than dirt by now? Please check-it-out & verify. Out.

Thanks guys. It's just that I set here thinking about a very close friend how gave his all, just like all the men you knew, and wonder what they would say.

[reconeil]

Are likely thinking & saying exactly what Our Forefathers are now saying,.............
while similarly rolling-over-(due total disgust) in-their-graves.

Neil

P.S. Dan,
Never lost any of my men, friends & buddies while serving.
After discharged while many re-uped (circa 1958),...don't really know?
Actually,...don't really want to know. The movie: "We Were Soldiers" being a good reason.
Much prefer believing that all Such Great Guys whom always could be counted on, faired
as well as could possibly be.

I think about The Wall everyday. I am in full survival mode now. Their sacrifice shall not have been in vain.

We all have to move on - they wouldn't want it any other way. Don't mean we don't have to look over our shoulder every now and then - just to keep in practice.
