We're still planning on buying it, but we'll have to do with a bit less for the down payment. Doctors Without Borders got our cash. Seems to be the standard for the Bush admin. - anything that's really for the people, has to come from the common man, not the wealthy elites. "Here at Ortillery Command we have at our disposal hundred megawatt laser beams, mach 20 titanium rods and guided thermonuclear bombs. Some people say we think that we're God. We're not God. We just borrowed his 'SMITE' button for our fire control system."
