Rethinking Pelosi's Visit, British Naval Discipline

Submitted by Paul F. Perreten, Apr 6, 2007 10:40

Horatio Nelson is no doubt rolling over in his grave trying to lessen the pain projected from where his arm used to be and the life he gave in devotion to and love of his country. The sailors of that once great Navy and their leaderless countrymen must now hang their heads in shame for the cowards they are in failing to fight to free their captured sailors as Nelson no doubt laments the sorry state of affairs. Let's hope the US Navy will perform in a brave and courageous way when our turn comes to face the bad guys.
