6. America has had a track record of being pussyfooted with war’s recently, not finishing them to the end.
7. Stupid people can be elected to very high ranking positions (okay, i didn’t learn this today)
8. Don’t rely on friends who have admitted history of procrastination to save you from your own procrastination, this is like asking an alcoholic to get another alcoholic to stop drinking.
