<DIV><FONT color=#150e00 size=4 face=Calibri>Well Donovan, you're at it
again with your generalizations tailor made to fit your rhetoric,
e.g.. colonels and colons. Let's see now: Benedict
Arnold, the soldier, as opposed to Morris Dees, the trial lawyer. To quote
Donovan, "One is full of honor and the other?" </FONT></DIV>

<DIV>The problem with Hansen's analogy is that what a colonel has to say
has some relevance and truth to it in the real world, where as the words
of a trial lawyer usually don't. </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I hope Hansen will refrain from insulting men and women in uniform by
reducing their relevancy to that of a trial lawyer. They deserve better
than this. Soldiers put their lives on the line, they fight for something
real.. They serve their country and others with honor. The polar opposite
of most lawyers.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>There is as much difference between a colonel and trial lawyer as
there is between a colonel and a colon. One is full of honor the other
full is full of, well, I will let you fill in the blank. </DIV>
