Irish! I know about being "touchy"! My dad (gawd I miss him) served in two wars! WWII and the Korean conflict! He had medals out the wazzoo (of which I am still trying.....to no avail.....to get duplicates from the Veterans Administration as they were stolen from his apartment just a few hours after he died........he lived in a bad part of Camden, N.J. and when the neighbors heard of his death....they ransacked his apartment. Long story there...I won't bore you)

Anyway.........I am not without the sense and feeling of knowing which side my bread is buttered on! As far as equality.......we have a long way to go......but we (women) have come a long way as well and I am proud of that!

As far as war...........well.......as I said from the beginning, I state what I think......(as MY opinion only).........because I never back down when I have something to say! And you must know by now......LOL!.......I ALWAYS have SOMETHING to say!

*hugs again*
