Reply #75: trav? short for travesty? I knew it.

[Harry S Truman]

On your bible: Yes, it teaches bigotry. It's a lie, a concoction, a fable. Get over it. Love comes from the human heart, the human mind.

On Truman: Stopping a rail strike that was about to shut down the US economy is not breaking unions. Harry would be Howard Dean today.
And is the general you do dearly speak of MacArthur? Save lives? The loon wanted to use nuclear weapons on the Chinese and start World War III in Korea. You remember that, trav? Mac was so popular that when he came home and tried to run for president, he got laughed right back to the farm. Or, as a dear old conservative lady I know from those days once told me: "Sure, we loved MacArthur. We just didn't realize until later that he was nuts."

And that micro-management you speak of is ... uh ... just the Constitution. Read it. It beats the bible by a mile.
