OH, once again this is another example of what should not be tried in the court of public opinion, damn it!!! Unless a man or woman has served in combat, specially in Iraq, what they think DOES NOT MATTER. What happened in Haditha is not the result of the actions of a few "bad apples". There are definitive reasons why such tragic incidents happen during war, with the first and foremost cause being specifically 'the failure of leadership.' IF you truely want to know wh...

It seems to me there are a combination of reasons Jeff Foxworthy's humor is so truely funny, and it's NOT because his humor is really that unique. Part of what makes what he says so funny is the true honesty in the manner in which he presents it. Jeff Foxworthy is definitely an entertainer. Yep... Part of his appeal has also gotta be because there are generally only two kinds of people in the world. (don go arguing with me about generalizations. Thank you.) Yep - the two general...
