Title: Unthankful?
Post by: BlueGrips on March 24, 2006, 08:30:09 AM

After being rescued by our warriors who risked their lives for them, you would have thought that they got it. And still... Quite amazing!

"Earth produces nothing worse than an ungrateful man."
  [Lat., Nil homine terra pejus ingrato creat.]
      - Decimus Magnus Ausonius, Epigrams (CXL, 1)

. . . or . . .

"I hate ingratitude more in a man
  Than lying, vainness, babbling, drunkenness,
    Or any taint of vice whose strong corruption
      Inhabits our frail blood."
      - William Shakespeare, Twelfth Night (III, iv)

Wish we had some video of their faces as they were being rescued , rescued , did someone say rescued.  Because as far as I know none of them wanted to stay. Since they won't say it I will. To All our Brave Men and Women in the armed forces. Thank You  and  may God Bless You

I hate quoting the Bible but this is a good one:

Isaiah 1:2-3 "I reared children and brought them up, but they have rebelled against me.The ox knows his master, the donkey his owner's manger, but Israel does not know, my people do not understand."

The scary great truth is that even animals are greatful but human beings are the worst kind!
