"I viewed multiple instances of torture and rape in VietNam, but I did not view any of THIS PARTICULAR group of Vets torturing and raping..."

"Now do you like me?"

I salute all veterans for their service

That done ... may the fleas of a thousand camels infest Kerry and the black caucus, and may they all be forced to have sex with Maxine Waters.

How loud would the presstitutes howl if someone had a tribute to WHITE veterans and just ignored the contributions of black veterans?

Nah, I think it's to hell with the light skinned veterans as far as Kerry is concerned.

We're starting to hear about cries of "baby killers" again. Must be Kerry fans.

"How loud would the presstitutes howl if someone had a tribute to WHITE veterans and just ignored the contributions of black veterans?"

So loud that the screams would drowned out the prisoner abuse scandal for a couple of hours, the Kobe Bryant, Michael Jackson, and Scott Peterson cases would relegated to page two in the daily rags, and you would not be getting any blurbs about VetNam John wanting McLaim for VP.

Hmmmmmm ... It could be worth it.

Strange - when I think of a soldier all I see is green.
