Even the Nat'l Guard is deployed overseas.

I tried to dissuade my son from enlisting (He, now a veteran of Operation Enduring Freedom). But his sense of duty towards his countrymen won out and I remember him staunchly hiding his trepidation the night he shipped out. Just a boy then, really.

Honorable intentions exploited by others for (mostly) their material gain. Acknowledge though, one must, that we all enjoy a small share in the bounty via a preeminent currency and Pax Americana protected trade. The crooks in the three letter agencies and the puppets in congress have distorted foreign policy and squandered good will earned by others of greater character and sacrifice.
