Subject: Common sense rules! Author: edward setner [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ] Date Posted: 14:38:01 03/16/03 Sun In reply to: "King of the Americas" 's message, "Interesting e-mail sent to O'Reily@foxnews.com" on 07:45:49 03/27/01 Tue Dear Bill,Think of all the money we could save on dues by telling the united nations to get screwed. Of course hans blix would have to find another place to eat his grilled fish.(I think that its the only reason he wants his stay prolonged).Of course he could apply for Iraq citizenship.As far as some of our allies treat them like wood ticks, and pick them off, before they suck us dry.We don't need them watching our backs.They didn't have a 9/11. We did.When we have a huge problem with someone, don't be stupid and wait for them to make the first move, KICK them in the balls and get it over with before we find oursleves on the ground for the count.(who would sympathize with us?)
