All the rhetoric on whether or not we should go to war against Iraq has got my insane little brain spinning like a roulette wheel. I enjoy reading opinions from both sides but I have detected a hint of confusion.
As I was reading the paper recently, I was reminded of the best advice someone ever gave me. He told me about the KISS method (Keep It Simple, Stupid!) so, with this as a theme, I’d like to apply this theory for those who don’t quite get it. My hope is that we can
simplify things a bit and recognize a few important facts.
Here are 10 things to consider when voicing an opinion on this Important issue:
1) Between President Bush and Saddam Hussein … Hussein is the bad guy.
2) If you have faith in the United Nations to do the right thing keep this in mind, they have Libya heading the Committee on Human Rights and Iraq heading the Global Disarmament Committee. Do your own math here.
3) If you use Google search and type in “french military victories,” your reply will be “did you mean french military defeats?”
4) If your only anti-war slogan is “no war for oil,” sue your school district for allowing you to slip through the cracks and robbing you of the education you deserve.
5) Saddam and Bin Laden will not seek united nations approval before they try to kill us.
6) Despite common belief, Martin Sheen is not the president. He plays one on t.v.
7) Even if you are anti-war, you are still an “infidel!” and Bin Laden wants you dead, too.
8) If you believe in a “vast right-wing conspiracy” but not in the danger that Hussein poses, quit hanging out with the Dell computer dude.
9) We are not trying to liberate them.
10) Whether you are for military action or against it, our young men and women overseas are fighting for us to defend our right to speak out. We all need to support them without reservation.

Salutations Mike,
I couldn’t help but notice the commentary on the game that’s about to start soon. I hope everyone’s happy, sitting in front of their TV’s with their chips, beer, and hard liquor for every time someone says “scud”, “patriot”, and “enduring freedom” on the news.
Do I support my country? Fuck yes, always have, always will. I don’t think there’s many on the anti-war side that doesn’t support our country, or our soldiers out there doing the dirty work. Do I support that mad cowboy calling himself a president? Fuck no! Never have, never will! As a republican, I was in favor of Dole, McCain, Powell, fuck I would have supported Stormin’ Norman (who is not coming along for the ride on this war), or even General Alexander Haig. When it comes to George W. Bush, I just don’t trust the shifty-eyed sonovabitch!
I don’t believe we are prepared for this war. I believe that not only are we lacking the element of surprise, but have been feeding information to the Iraqis via our ever so hungry news media. If Eisenhower were here, it would have been over, done with, and our high school kids could go back to not knowing where Iraq was on a map (if they ever did to begin with). This is looking more and more like the next Grenada than it does a re-hash of Desert Storm, and I don’t think we’re going to be as lucky as we were in those two
operations.
Thank you kindly,
Jay E. Moyes

Jaye wrote this before the bombing started tonight, I am in Florida and on a dial up connection so it takes me a bit longer to get the updates done. I agree with Jay in that we should have already had this over and done with, I disagree that we are giving Iraq enough intelligence to make much of a difference in the outcome, Iraq simply isn’t sophisticated enough to be able to use the advance knowledge to any real advantage. Hell Ray Charles could see the attack comiing here…At this point I am four square behind our President and our military and I believe we will get the job done in short order. I’d bet my last dollar Jay is too.
Tera is Back in the News:
To add to your Tera stories… True… she never was an RN… she changed bed pans. Her and her father do not own a vineyard… He works at some wine factory… She is not a diabetic… the bankruptcy is due to her attorneys, not her financial state, And she claims to her close friends that she does not get ANY money from her web site…. All her money has been put in Evans bank account… she bought her own engagement right and bought his hummer.
Later bro,

Hi,Mike,
I,too,unfortunately read that tragic comedy piece that was Setgo’s interview with Mr, Tera Patrick himself,Evan Seinfeld,and it was the most hilarious thing I’ve ever read,for all of the lies and false accusations that this ass clown makes opens up the reason to why Biohazard(Evan’s band)always tanked way below Metallica(who they could never knock off the top of the charts),and why he’s the most hated man in the industry(to both celebrities and fans),from his malicious trashing of various folks(Paul Fishbein,Adella,Paul Cambria,and yourself),to how he compares the guys that Tera doesn’t want to work with on set(but does,because it’s her job to)to rapists(iee,yii,iee!!). I’d surely love to see big bad ole Evan in the boxing ring with both Wankus and Jimmy D.,for they’d make sure that Evan would last as long as it takes for Mike Tyson to crack a smile.
As far as Evan goes for me,I pray that this “Iranian sunhuman” [Evan] does get tied onto the bigggest missile that gets shot to bomb Iraq,so that we can rid of this living and breathing virtual annoyance.
Thanks,
Steven M(illan).
Well it seems my email has been unanamous against Evan, he needs a good PR person REAL bad.
