That's some good stuff good luck to ya both!
Not sure where to start except I disagree with calling the president of our country a horse's ass. Yes, to a large extent I'm proud of our president. Didn't hear many people calling him a horse's ass back when the war started, but you certainly hear that and a lot worse now. Funny how that is. I did tell my wife that we were getting into something there'd be no easy way out of, but like most everyone else I fully supported our efforts. Unlike many I still do.
It's not religious fundamentalists who're the problem, it's radical extremists. Plenty of religious fundamentalists all over the world that don't go around blowing people up like the Muslim radical extremists are doing.
The Muslim religion produces more modern day killers than all others combined many times over. That's fact. Is it fair to hang some kind of stigma on the Muslim religion? Well, 99 percent of terrorists in the last 40 years have been Muslims, you decide.
Granted more humans throughout history have died because of religion than anything else, but all other mainstream religions have gotten past that.
The extreme Muslim factions believe 40 virgins await in the afterlife for those who blow themselves and some infidels up. Since their religion prohibits them from much earthly enjoyment it seems a lot of them can't wait to get dead and take as many with them as possible. Awful hard to deal with folks that prefer death over life.
I wouldn't vote for Barack Obama not matter what. Mostly because I ain't buying the non substantive crap he's pedalling, but all the Muslim stuff hanging around him doesn't help either.

Yeah, thats probably more valid than the way I put it.

IRA wasn't Muslim. I'm sure if we checked around we would find a number of other groups that are labeled terrorist by many that are not Muslim.

Agreed. Thats part of the trouble that we had with Japan in WWII.

Certainly a valid reason. Not sure I buy it all either.
Mark, you get a 20 pound+ striper crushing a topwater plug this spring and you might change your mind :)
