Interesting how times change. John was just flipping past a showing of Rambo III and pointed out that in that movie, Stallone is helping the Afghans kill off the evil invading Soviets. Interesting how those poor persecuted Afghans turned out to be the Taliban.
(This should not be construed in any way that I am supporting a war. I'm not - the Taliban was pretty damn evil, but sending our troops over there and bombing to in hopes of wiping out Bin Laden was swatting horseflies with a Buick. Same goes for Saddamn Hussein. He is just going to go protect himself behind a bunch of women and children like he did last time.)
