 Saddam Hussein promised us the “mother of all battles” but in the event produced something like the daughter-in-law of an obscure cat fight.

The war is inevitable — and let it come! I repeat it, sir, let it come. It is in vain, sir, to extenuate the matter. Gentlemen may cry, Peace, Peace — but there is no peace.

I know not what course others may take but as for me: give me liberty or give me death. – Patrick Henry, March 23, 1775, Richmond Virginia  July 4th, 2002 | Comments are closed
