Douglas MacArthur gets my vote for greatest American General, but I feel like I am dissing George Washington when I say that. Roy

That's cool, Granny. Start, huh? Big towns like that scare me to death. Roy

Ain't you cool, Granny Gumbo? I was born in Winnsboro and lived in Gilbert until I was 12. Is you lived there all your life? Roy

Hey Lady Eagle, my apologies for not looking at this link earlier. I think also that oil is a prime motivator for the U.S. presence in Iraq. If we are able to maintain friendly relations with the powers in control there, it will give us access to Iraqi oil and thus leverage against the Saudis...

How should I do this, Roy? Stop being of Jewish ancestry or stop giving a rip about Israel and the Jews? Joseph Botwinick [/b]</font> That's a kind offer, Mr. Botwinick, but I like you just fine as an American with Jewish bloodlines. I also like Israel and the Jewish people. Roy For...

I don't think that your ethnicity offends anyone on this discussion board, but you probably have some wonderful pity parties imagining that it does. Roy

No, and why would you care beans what Lucky Lindy had to say about anything? He was a has been at that time. I think that what I would have advocated is to be prepared. Beef up the defenses and offer aid to those fighting the NAZIs. Hitler was a maniac anyway and I don't think it would have...

Joseph: Hindsight is always 20/20. If I had been around in the years preceeding Dec. 7, 1941, I doubt that I would have been chomping at the bit to get involved in any international conflict, and I don't think that the majority of U.S. citizens were either. The fact that our country stayed out...

Do we need to send troops to every continent where murderous oppression exists or just to countries where Jews are threatened? I'm not making light of Nazi oppression, but oppression exists everywhere, and I don't see how the U.S. can go everywhere and deal with it. If we did, the country...

He probably hasn't gone liberal, but in all likelihood has been liberal all along. There's a piece on him at this link, Tony Campolo

According to the little story on the back of the "Kingsford" charcoal package, Thomas Edison and Henry Ford combined their genius minds and invented charcoal briquets. For that, we can all be forever grateful. Roy

The electric chair incident was really sad and violated the constitution with respect to cruel and unusual punishment. The prisoner should have at least had his sentence commuted after the first attempt to execute him. I'm not sure whether it was the forties or fifties when Louisiana had an...

Carter's foreign policies always seemed suicidal in regards to our national interests. He gave away the Panama Canal and was always eager to make concessions to the Soviets. For those reasons, he may feel a kinship with suicide bombers. If he were president today, he might likely try to...

I guess the move to the Southeastern Conference was good for the Hogs then. It looks like it made them leaner and meaner. Roy

I lived in Arkansas back in those days and it seems that I heard "outplaying but losing to the Longhorns" every season. I don't follow Razorback football these days so I don't know if they are still outplaying but losing to the Longhorns anymore or not. Well, are they? Roy

These days, Arkansas plays a respectable schedule. When they are good, it is undeniable, and when they are bad, it shows. Back in the 60s when they were in the Southwest Conference, it was hard to tell if they were good or bad because of the powderpuff-like schedule they had. A typical...

What is the Black Israel movement? Roy [ December 23, 2004, 02:15 AM: Message edited by: Roy ]

Seeing how she wants to wear it along side the symbol of her faith, I would object to it. I think that even Paul the apostle would have objected to something like that, seeing how faced off with Peter for trying to Judaise the Gentiles. Roy

George Washington is my favorite, by far. He was a Godly man, and his speeches were more spriritual than most sermons being preached today. I also like Abraham Lincoln for the fact that there was no blood bath in the South at the end of the Civil War. Had any other Republican been in office...
