“Hermann Goering managed to lose Sixth Army with a promise to supply it by air.”

So you know history, Buddy. Don’t you think 2008 is a little bit more advanced than 1938, and the United States of America a little more able than the Nazi’s?

Sheesh, next you’ll be agreeing that Russia, China and America are equivalents, and that Islam is on the same footing as Christianity, Hinduism and Buddhism.

I’m starting to think that who-ever said “those who don’t know their history are condemned to repeat it” should be taken out behind the woodshed and shot because essentially what saying that comes down to is, “don’t move, don’t do anything, because anything we try has been done before sometime and failed.”

I’d like to replace it with a new saying: “Never NOT do something because something bad MIGHT happen as a result of it.”
