Quote worth pondering

Take a look:

You know, we haven't got any business in those far away wars. Seven thousand miles is a long way to go to shoot somebody, especially if you are not right sure they need shooting, and you are not sure whether you are shooting the right side or not.

~Will Rogers

You know, people here in Oklahoma are so proud of native son, Will Rogers, and yet they are typically very much in favor of foreign wars. Sad.

    It IS sad Ellie! Being a Tulsa native, I am proud of Will Rogers too and sometimes brag about him here in Califonia where I have lived for the past 5 years. But most politicians and voting patterns there would be enough to make Will "turn over in his grave" I'm afraid.
