Absolutely! George has a long history of knocking one's out of the park. Watching his clip reminded me of a piece on Olbermann last night. He ended "Countdown" with a spoof on Halliburton. Wish I could find a link. It was hilarious last night. This morning I can't figure out if it's funny or so spot on it's merely depressing.

Espirit de Corps is not known in the civilian sector and its something I have had to learn to deal with and accept.

The US had it during WWII, but I dont know if its technology or Walmart something has happend-- now a person works just hard enougn not to get fired and is paid just enough so they dont quit..


I love the military, Im proud to have served, and glad we have an outstanding force, but when asked the question of the OP, I dont know how to answer in the way George has put my beliefs so well..
