Why do we even bother wasting our great soldier's lives on these arab countries.

Thanks a lot. I was being called for dinner, trying to finish it up. And was very important to me. It's past my bedtime, will read the rest of the thread in the a.m.
Prayers for safe-keeping to all.

No skin of a politician's back if a few troops die every day.

Test a Moab on Tikrit. If Syria, Iran, Egypt, or France complain, test one on them too.

MOAB?? That's not a bomb. THIS,is a bomb-->

"These weenies always do something on Saturday or Sunday so we can watch it on the news over and over again. They commit these atrocities then run home to tune in CNN to watch the handwringing. They are betting we are all demoncrats and don't have the guts to sustain losses."

The media doesnt care, Michael Jackson is all that matters now. CNN has a show right now on how fat people in America lose weight. MSNBC has a show on Michael Jackson, and Fox News has an hour long special on Victoria's Secret Fashion show.

What battle is it that we must win? Establishing a democracy in that godforsaken hellhole of a land? Finding WMD? Killing Hussein and removing him from power...

If these people truly want a democracy they can start one themselves.

Because there are people in these 'arab countries' who are trying to blow every civilized society and individual off the face of the earth.

These 'great soldiers' understand what it's all about, and know it's worth the sacrifice.

You could learn something from them.

His unit consisting of 20 soldiers was surrounded by about 50 insurgents. RPG's were flying over their heads and they heard bullet's wizzings all around them.

Oh my God----how horrifying for your son to be in the heat of the battle. And equally horrifying for you.

God's not used to hearing much from me, but I will definitely be praying for your son and all our brave soldiers who are in harm's way.

The Bush daughters are serving this county more than you will ever.

You ought to stop exchanging feet in your mouth. Since you made this statement, tell me these girls have done to serve our country?

You know nothing my military record. Where I served, what I sacrificed. The *years* I spent in piece of sh*t countries.

You are so hoodwinked by your political party you will say anything. It's like a burp, it just comes out.

Last I read about the Bush girls, they attempted to pass some fraudulent ID to get a beer, or some stupid a$$ thing.

Is this your idea of serving your country? Or getting served a beer?

"The Bush daughters are serving this county more than you will ever."

Here's the full context of my post for you Joe. Nice of you not to use it when responding to my post, but there many things that you don't use before you post.

The Bush daughters have a dad -- our president -- who is taking on the worst terror organizations in the world. Try to think what kind of danger this puts the entire Bush family in and try to think what kind of life they NOW must lead for the rest of their life. The Bush daughters are serving this county more than you will ever.

The full context of my post clearly gives answer to your post-first-think-later question.

Last I read about the Bush girls, they attempted to pass some fraudulent ID to get a beer, or some stupid a$$ thing. Is this your idea of serving your country? Or getting served a beer?

Clue to Joe -- when the Bush girls were trying to get that beer, it was before 9/11/2001. How normal a life do you think they are leading now?

You made the statement.

What did they do? How did they serve? Simple questions.

This will not have the affect the bad guys think it will have on the American public.....this will piss us off.

It has already and we should be playing by new rules.

The Bush family has sacraficed its own personal safety for the safety of the country and the war on terror. The Bush daughters will never live a normal life because they will always be targets. Heretofore they could go out on their own and do whatever they wanted. From here on in, unlike Joe Hadenuf, they can not.

The Bush family and the daughters in particular have sacraficed greatly.

"The perpetrators should be found, publically tried by a military tribunal and also very publically executed."

You are missing but one key ingredient my friend.

Those pulling the trigger on the firing squad should be Iraqis.

And emphasis on "PUBLIC" - make it mandatory for the entire community to show for the ceremony.

We should start collecting teenage boys from Mosul. Scare 'em enough and they'll talk. The guilty ones should be pummeled with concrete blocks.

The key ingredient here is to inflict worse damage on the enemy than they did on us.

This should be done in public and . . . the execution must be carried out by Iraqis - - NOT AMERICANS.

This is key.

Time to unleash the Kurds!!!

You may be on to something there, my friend.

The Kurds are about the only thing the Iraqis really, really fear.

But there would have to be a media blackout over all of Iraq.

We can't have CNN doing news breaks showing Iraqi heads dangling off stakes, now can we?

Recruit the Kurds - it's time.

"Military families know the risks of war. Bless them, they worry every day."

IT'S THE SOLDIER


It's the soldier, not the reporter
Who has given us freedom of the
PRESS.

It's the soldier, not the poet,
Who has given us freedom of
SPEECH.

It's the soldier, not the campus
ORGANIZER,
Who has given us the freedom to
DEMONSTRATE

It's the soldier, not the lawyer,
Who has given us the right to a
FAIR TRIAL.
It's the soldier who salutes the flag,
Serves under the flag
And whose coffin is draped by the flag,
Who gives the protester the right to burn the flag.


-Father D. E. O'Brien
