Fvck the GOP. If they cared two sh*ts about our troops they wouldn't have put them in harm's way and would be working to get them home NOW.


And screw that "God Bless America" crap. You think a supernatural being cares about one country over another on this piss-ant planet? Enough with the schlock BS.

My understanding is that Allah does not bless those who engage in unjust war, but that He blesses only the just.

Let our prayers therefore be that each of us learn to KNOW what actually IS just. The the rest will take care of itself.

Just imagine how Allah sees you when you pray for those who do wrong.

And since Allah and God are one and the same the same is true of God.

It'll take more than an imaginary friend to help our soldiers. It'll take the republicans waking up, which probabbly won't happen.

December 29, 1890 is my Memorial/Veterans Day.

:( So sad.

I can't blindly praise all US troops when there is inadequately recognized injustice that has been done at their hands.

HOWEVER, kudos to all those who died for what is right, whatever their race, religion, or nationality. This includes a decent amount of US soldiers (like the ones who fought the nazis).

sadly, that was my family on the banks of that river. my great grandad had left on a 'vision quest' and is the only reason he and a few others survived that day. yes these atrocities still happen as i heard on cnn yesterday that an american soldier admitted they were forced to fire into crowds. i understand that war is hell, and can be very confusing, but there is a way to avoid it and we all know it, but none will admit it to themselves or anyone else.

There is a way to admit it to ourselves, 5500+ real american heros have followed what they know is right and done just that.
True heros that have sacrificed everything willingly, not just gone over there knowing they were lied to and hoped they wouldn't have to make a sacrifice following in the american tradition of apathy.

Right on! I met a guy at work that says he will never support putting kids in a firefight, because he's been there, and knows. This guy has Marine stickers all over his car, two purple hearts, and some brutal freaking stories.

yeah, you can tell the real old crusty marines who saw action, they are worlds apart from the gung ho idiots who didn't get to see action but were in country or doing pushups in the cold war stateside.

I can think of a few of these sorts right at the top of my head who were in desert storm and

act like rambo and the punisher rolled up into one and bitch about how they should kill all the ragheads and all the "hippies" here when they sat on their ass in kuwait the whole time.

-I even knew one that kept a fake skull on his tv with a turban on it, he was so pissed he didn't get to kill anyone he brags about his plastic skull! hoo-rah!

But then you go downtown and kick down some spare change to the homeless vets missing limbs from this iraqi war, they act a whole diffrent way...

no he's whining about having traveled to 8 countries so he can be a braindead tightass to everyone while he hides out in some hole in washington,

let me guess, hiding behind your family?

Remember, these right wing cowards don't have to serve when there are so many of the poor they disdain so much.

Just pump their asses full of sunshine about how superior they are over those evil hippie libs pay some stupid lip service about the flag being the new jesus,whine more about supporting the troops and slap some made in china magnet on their car volia! a real american hero..... cough cough *bvllsh1t*

Peoople like you know who here are a waste of a social security card, better off giving it to a desrving mexican and let these people go live in a dictatorship hole like their wet dream of america is.



Support the troops, use your own head and your freedom of speech instead of being a greedy apathetic fatass hick and bring the rest of us down!

Lol, here we go again. The boy whos never seen anything but knows everything. Your post is not only incoherent its moronic.

No. I dont hide behind my family. I served time in the navy the same time as the cole was attacked. Timing wasnt with me and im well beyond enlistment age. I do find it somewhat humorous that that a miscreant such as yourself can put me down for serving in peacetime. You wont serve at all. Who is the coward, Id say steepletrash.

As for the hick comment, well what should I expect from a white trash moron that repeatedly copies and pates his email here and presents it as his own opinion.


Give it a rest boy. Your a loser and a liar.
