eason 911 happened in the first place. I join many veterans in supporting Kerry
until a better man comes forward to defeat Bush and put America back on a better
road... Peace to all of you.|

glass of Kool-Aid....He's on a roll.... Good point about why so many companies
had contracts already before the country is even secure. We are fighting Syrians
In Iraq as much as Iragi's. |

I think one thing we can all agree on this Memorial Day weekend is the hope that
your wishes come true, and all of our men and women return home safely from the
war. The sooner that's over, the better.I do take exception though, to the
concept that the U.S. must follow some sketchy U.N. protocol to defend
ourselves. On 9-11-01, America was attacked. We identified the group(s) who
committed the murders of 3000 of our civilian citizens, and made the correct
decision to declare war on these groups and the nations who harbor them. As for
Iraq, they disregarded the U.N. resolutions estabished when they were defeated
after invading Kuwait in 1991. As the U.N. was unwilling to enforce their own
resolutions (not followed by Iraq), the U.S. was within its rights, in my
judgement, to go to war with Iraq. There were connections evident between the
leadership there, and the terror groups responsible for killing around the world
(funding and "reward" money from Saddam to the terrorists). Further, I know the
Bush administration overestimated how many WMDs were in Iraq---but the real
point is that Saddam would not allow the inspections that he agreed to when he
surrendered in the early 90's. By not allowing inspections, he opened himself
to the conjecture that he was hiding weapons. It was the correct decision to go
to war against him and remove him from power. We should never allow the U.N. or
other nations to dictate U.S. policy. They do not have our best interests in
mind---and further, the U.N. has proven to be corrupt and not trustworthy (refer
to their laughable yet disasterous weapons for food program, which divereted
money for food for starving children into the wallets of U.N. officials.). Kofi
Annan should not be directing America's foreign policy and right to defend
itself. |

have just seen both fights. Bonavena looked very strong against Mildenberger. He
dominated the fight knocking Karl down several times. Mildenberger did hurt him
once,though ( I think in round 9). Very good performance by Oscar and
great fight.In the Bonavena fight Patterson just showed how good he was.
He outclassed and outboxed Oscar winning quite comfortably on points ( I have
Floyd 3 points ahead at the end of the 10 rounds). This was really a great
exhibition for a 37 years old fighter ! Floyd Patterson had really a huge
talent, if he had had Chuvalo's chin he would have been probably the greatest
fighter ever. John Gerard said once that Oscar had a damaged hand in this fight.
This might be an explanation for Oscar' s disappointing performance. Jerry
Quarry fought so well against Patterson and this says alot about ( or on ) his
technical ability and strength. Patterson-Bonavena was a very good fight, but
