As a Korean War Veteran I know too well the troubling nature of war. This is why I will always support a diplomatic answer before military intervention.

The Iraq war took priority over domestic disaster prevention.

At least 23,000 civilians have also died in the Iraqi killing field and the U.S. is stuck in a quagmire.

We owe it to the flood victims of New Orleans to give them truthful answers as to why this event took place and to assure our citizens that tragedies like this will never happen again.

We didn't have practical model rockets in the '50s. The ones we made were very dangerous and the kids that played with them didn't have all their fingers, and sometimes were blind in one eye.

I'm sure that people who have been tweeting funny things have ended up on writing staffs of a late night show.
