"Kos" is probably a pillow-biting prissy boy and isn't fit to share their planet!

Democrats have hated America since the Vietman war. Nothing has changed. They always side with the enemy. I don't need any more evidence proving the obvious. They should all rot in He||.

He's a blogger of some minor fame. His website gets a fairly substantial amount of traffic. Lots of Democrats advertise on it, both to solicit donations and to recruit volunteers.

Awful ... just awful. I get madder and madder. If I though I could make a difference by catching a flight to Baghdad with a rifle in my hand I'd go...
How long till the bombs drop? Get the Marines in there!
This is why they should die

I'm thinking of volunteering for the Democrats this year. If I put some real effort into being rude and incompitent, I could probably implode their campaign.
To: William McKinley; All
How about making this be a memorial thread for the Fallujah Four?
I'll start:
Hub and I are keeping the families, friends, and loved ones of the Fallujah Four in our prayers for their inconsolable loss. May we never forget their sacrifice, their heroism, and their contribution. And may those who committed this offense burn in the fires of hell eternally.

This from of all places a Fark thread.
Fundamentalmentalbundle
I spent 8 years in the US Navy. I have a son in Iraq as we speak. I've never met anyone who joined the miliary to kill people. Mostly they just do their jobs. If they have to fight, it's to keep their own asses from getting blown away or to protect their buddies who are almost like family. I've never met one person who was opposed to the military who was really informed. They could only spout the mindless drivel they've heard from the propaganda machine in this country or from some asshat professor who thought he/she knew more than anyone else when he/she was only mindlessly spouting what he/she heard.
My son tells me about the villagers he's met near where he's stationed. They're good people who only want to be left alone, in peace, just like most of us. They live in mud huts with dirt floors. Their children had no school before the US and other UN forces came. Sadam had taxed them to death to build his war machine and his palaces.
The people who keep shooting rockets and small arms at my son and his friends are apparently religious fundamentalists. I'm a Christian, but not fundamentalist. I have learned that Fundamentalists of any religion are neither fun nor mentalists. That leaves only DUH (works better out loud).
I don't know what this war is really about. I suspect it's about more than we know. China was supplying arms to Iraq before and may yet be. I'd be willing to bet that the global strategic position is a lot more complicated than any of us know.
Turn off your damn televisions and radios, put down the newspapers. They're all either liberal or conservative propaganda tools. Pick up some history books, talk to some real people, always keeping an open but critical mind. And most of all, THINK.
And find a way to serve your country, if not in the military, then as a public servant. At least get your ass out and pick up some trash. If you don't serve, you're part of the problem instead of part of the solution.

Scott Helvenston, 38, was a former member of the US Navy SEALs who joined at the age of 17 and served until 1994. He seems like a good kid. I know hed been to El Salvador, and at some point had been involved in a parachuting accident that busted him up pretty badly.
Its sort of anti-climactic to have been through some of the things hed been through and had the accomplishments he did, only to get taken out by some nut(s) in Fallujah, IMO.
The Zovko photo is interesting (to me) because hes a dead-ringer for someone I knew long ago. The person he looks *exactly* like worked for a security outfit called Combat (Combative?) Concepts or something similar. They trained SWAT/SERT teams at the time, and he was an ex-SEAL. But hed be in his late 50s/early 60s now, and Ive been rooked by coincidental look-alikes before
but its an eerie similarity nonetheless

To: Judith Anne
I'll join you in that. A friend of mine here at FR was thinking of taking a job which would have put him in Iraq for a while. I am glad he isn't going.
These men were brave, and they were doing selfless work.
I am thankful for people like Kos. They are the ones who keep having the mask the Democrat party tries to keep on slip off. Throw in together the Wellstone Memorial and a few other recent eye-openers, and the antiAmericanism of the left is shining through loud and clear.
And those who died in Iraq here? They were Americans. God bless them all. They were fathers, friends, coworkers, sons, men. Patriots. Americans to the core. Screw them? No, Kos. Bless them and theirs.
To: Gerasimov
What sick, disgusting pictures!!!! I saw the same thing on Michael Savage's website and I am VERY, VERY, angry. Im glad that W is our president because if Clinton were still president, we would be embarrased again just like in Mogadishu! THIS is what we should do to those SAVAGES in Al-Fallujah and the entire Sunni Triangle!!!!
