Re: ~ Here We Are ~
excellent.
there is no why.[ no answer for the whiners]
Its reality
Here we are in best threads. Where is 'reason'?
"There are plenty of good reasons for fighting, but no good reason ever to hate without reservation, to imagine that God Almighty Himself hates with you, too."
Though this quote comes from the World War II-centered Mother Night (published in 1961), its wisdom and ugly truth still ring. Vonnegut
(who often said "The only difference between Bush and Hitler is that Hitler was elected")

Dick Cheney was the brain.. heart of darkness "the horror"
If i had one wish that was outside rules. send me back 15 years in time.. i'd put a bullet through Cheney's head. then not run but stand tall.
say nothing till court.
Then say "im from 2014 i saved thousands of troopers lives . tens of thousands of people"
pause then

Twenty-three years later, when Cheney appeared before the Senate to plead the case for his confirmation as George Herbert Walker Bush’s defense secretary, he was questioned about his failure to serve. Cheney responded that he “would have obviously been happy to serve had I been called.”
In a more truthful moment that same year, Cheney admitted to a reporter, “I had other priorities in the ’60s than military service.”
Cheney’s lie to the Senate has never caused much concern, but that “other priorities” line has dogged him. After he selected himself to serve on the 2000 Republican ticket, former Secretary of Veterans Affairs Jesse Brown, a Vietnam veteran disabled by a gunshot wound to his right arm, said, “As a former Marine who was wounded and nearly lost his life, I personally resent that comment. I resent that he had ‘other priorities,’ when 58,000 people died and over 300,000 returned wounded and disabled. In my mind there is no doubt that because he had ‘other priorities’ someone died or was injured in his place.”
