...and your point is.........
I suggest you let this thread die. Too many differing opinions on here. You're only asking for trouble.

to serve or not to serve that is the question
me personally, I vote for person NOT party.
I say if you're gonna crucify someone who has served, you better put your cards on the table about IF AND WHEN you served. And we all know who I mean. wink wink

While doing my taxes once I asked my sister, 'Should I give a dollar to the Gubernatorial Campaign fund?'
Now the name is just plain silly itself. Sounds like the guy from Mayberry RFD running for President /or/ how about a fund to help stamp out flying mucous during football strikes like the one that hung off of Mark Gastenau's after he crossed the pick it line in the last football strike. But my sister replied "ah, what the hell! You might as well give it to them. If you don't, there gonna find a way to rip it off from you!' Quote:
