I'm making an observation, not drawing a conclusion here...

Hey, they call me back up on active duty, I'm back... but I'll be doing my
best to keep Mrs. Shultz's son's rear end intact too.

If we went to war in Cuba like we did in Vietnam, someone had better shoot
Clinton... if we go in intelligently on the other hand, we'd probably chew
them up. But it wouldn't solve a whole lot except get a lot of people
ticked off at us now, would it?

Castro's master plan is to 1. get publicity and 2. embarass the United
States. 2. is usually not very difficult and if he want's 1. he just
schedules a spontaneous demonstration.

What amount? SCF (local child welfare agency) is apparently doing a
competent enough job that nobody's tried to blow up their building or
anything. As for helping children, why don't you visit my website and check
out the "Rancho De Los Ninos" link and my photos of a group trip
down there that I just got back from.

Remember how we used to cheer whenever someone escaped from a communist
country, often leaving family behind?

Do you think that in, say, the early 1980's, if a lady had died while
getting her child across the intra-German (that's East/West) border, and if
her ex-husband in Ost Deutschland, who was an official in their government,
had asked for the child back, do you think anyone would have hesitated to
laugh in his face?
