Kerry

I thank you for your service,
Way back in Viet Nam.
But that is no free ticket,
To let you pull this scam.
You spit upon our nation,
Betrayed our young brave men.
You called them baby killers,
It’s not true now, nor then.
You sir are just low life scum,
You prey upon rich chicks.
I hope Teresa sees the light,
And dumps your bag of tricks.
I’ll vote for Bush this coming fall,
And pray that you don’t win.
For if you win, we all will lose,
Our freedom will cave in.

This movie will solidify Christians faith in their religion.. Kerry will solidify the creepy LIBS and their hatred for family values and morality and religion.

We were Soldiers was probably the hardest movie I ever watched. Haven't seen Passion yet. I cried thru that movie. I couldn't stop. Mel ought to re-release that movie, and let ole Monsieur Kerry talk about baby killers. Maybe he would be drawn and quartered.

I'd never admit it publicly, but the book and the movie "We were Soldiers" made me cry like a baby.

I can't say We Were Soldiers made me cry, but I spent most of the movie with a big smile of pride on my face ... all for our military ... and I remember repeating over and over throughout the movie "WOW!", and "I'm sure glad they went over instead of me" (By the way, I was 2 years old at the time ...)

Taking the wife to see Passion tonight at 7:00. Can't wait.

Pride, with sadness is how I felt. I served in the USAF 72-76 and didn't go to Viet Nam. But I know a lot of veterans who did. I thank them every chance I get.

The determination and courage of our soldiers throughout our history is truly an inspiration for this patriot. I have to hold back tears of pride when I sing the National Anthem.

I saw the movie and it was a great tribute to our Vietnam vets. Great movie, great people. I bought the book too, after seeing the movie. We have the greatest soldiers. And you were involved in that battle from We Were Soldiers? I'm in awe. Thank you all for your service.

Thank you all for caring and sharing with us your deep responses to your viewing "WE WERE SOLDIERS."

The "PASSION" Pre-view viewers' silence we see on TV as they leave their theaters mirrors precisely us "WE WERE SOLDIERS" Vets as we left that movie's Pre-views at Ft. Benning and San Diego.

GOD does indeed seem to work His Miracles in some very loving ways..?
