When in England at a fairly large conference,
Colin Powell was asked by the Archbishop of Canterbury if our plans for Iraq were just an example of empire building by George Bush.
He answered by saying that,
"Over the years, the United States has sent many
of its fine young men and women into great peril
to fight for freedom beyond our borders.
The only amount of land we have ever asked for
in return is enough to bury those
that did not return."
**It became very quiet in the room.
Eliminate distractions, focus on your goals and visualize what you hope to accomplish.
