14. but she said she knew what it said her husband was an officer.
and I guess she would not read the first part or some thing. Some I talked to said they had never read it and thought it was to the President only before they read it which did give me hope. Some of the men had even been in the service. I think it was on a blog and I got interesting in it so off I went. Ollie North almost drove me nuts as he did not learn what he did at any service school as they do not teach that stuff. Oaths to a man is a German thing or Russian or some place but not under our constitutions. When you hear the call ins on c-span you know that in the South they most have never taught this in school. Or I hear it and the call ins sounds like they are from the South. They swear we must do any thing Bush wants. Really wild if you grew up in a small town in Maine and we all were taught the govt. was not to be trusted if we did not watch it all the time.
