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.

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 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.

I've seen "We Were Soldiers" several times. After we saw it at the theatre, my husband bought the DVD. Wow. What a movie, what character is displayed. I cannot even express my feelings about the portray Mel Gibson does of - and now I cannot remember his name. I'm tired, it's been a long and trying day today. Haven't seen The Passion yet, though.

We Were Soldiers was the first movie since the air cav scenes in Apocalypse Now that made my hands get clammy and my neck muscles get tense. Both brought back many memories of dusty hot LZs and three radios screaming in my ears.

Here is a link to the website of the unit I was in in RVN. Some of the crewmembers had the foresight to tape some of the actual missions as they occurred. The recordings will put old helicopter pilots on the edge of their seats.

This from someone who walked thru that Valley of Death known as the IA DRANG of Mid-November 1965:


Have no Fear,

for you are all very dearly LOVED.

I love you entirely,

GOD loves you perfectly.


And since...

...things may not be what they appear to be in this world, for...

...there are things in life you can see with your eyes and...

...in life there are things you see with your Heart


And since

...LOVE is the Only Reality


And since

...it is in your Loving and...

...being Loved in return,

...in your Heart,

...that you really do live on FOREVER...

...you cannot miss,


with LOVE.






Praise GOD that...

LOVE is the Only Reality and that...

GOD is LOVE.






Just ask Pope JOHN PAUL II -&- our blessed little TERRI SCHIAVO,

...who are together again now for the 1st time,


ETERNALLY..?

I have the book and could only watch the movie once. For the record, Bangor Troop greeting was started by a Veteran from that battle. George Nye didn't want our troops treated in the same manner he was treated when he returned home.

Having read the book, and seen the movie, I think Mel Gibson likes to tell it like it was. I couldn't be more thankful for that. Thank you, sir, for your stand and sacrifice. Americans...real Americans, well-up with tears and pride at what has been done for us by our soldiers. (Can't speak for the Libs, just us regular Americans.) God bless you, Aloha Ronnie, and your war-brothers.
