Though I never served, I'll stand with you now.
Don't be too concerned w/the network news. WE have email! WE have pictures to send...we'll get the word out....oh yeah.
I fed up!
FOX just showed Geraldo sucking uo to Bill Clinton!
YOU, AND THE REST OF THE VETS ROCK TONKIN!!
I'm fed up, too, my friend. And I do NOT want you to stop preaching!!!
Hey, who knew Clinton's legacy would march in the parade.....
Is that an accurate quote? Did Kerry claim to be in Viet Nam for a whole year? I missed that one.
My vote for John Kerry! I marked the ballot, then flushed it down the toilet!
I also find the use of flag draped coffins to be particularly offensive in this "street" theatre. About 16 months ago I and another FReeper were involved in some activity which resulted in the shutting down of a site where people were using images from funerals of fallen heroes in order to justify their political positions. They were unable to make legitimate logical points and so they resorted to tactics which were solely designed to cause emotional distress. It was absolutely horrible, and I have tried to not think about the motives and mindsets of persons would resort to such offensive methods.
I found that to be perhaps the most vile, disgusting, and illegitimate argument that I have ever personally known on the Internet. Our Troops are not propaganda tools. Despite disagreements people should not use such images which conjure up raw emotions and heartache in the loved ones of our Troops. The use of such images is in my view beyond forgiveness, and it is most disgraceful.

That would make a great tagline!
It sure would be nice if we could get the FBI to open up the National Bomb Data Center information on the shadow war that law enforcement with US Army EOD support fought against the VVAW, SDS, Weathermen, Black Panthers, etc. during the 60's and 70's. What needs to be brought out is the bombing of the US Capital building in 1971 which every one seems to have forgotten about.
Well Good ON ya, I say. I sure try to beat the drum too.
But, please Tonk, don't get so riled up you hurt yourself with a stroke or something, ok? Mellow out within yourself. Don't stop preaching to the choir though; we're 1000% behind you! And others are actually LISTENING.

Oh, look!...An effigy of Kerry! :)
Liberal talking heads want us to believe the Swifties' message will be off the radar screen within a week. What joy to hear Britt Hume tell us this issue will not die soon and that the money coming in from the successful sale of their book will be used to continue the drum beat.
I think he WILL be the last casualty though. Just by his OWN admission. He's the only Vietnam Veteran I ever heard with my own ears hearing it, say that HE committed atrocities.
He burned down civilian villages with his Zippo lighter according to his own words.
FIRE !!!!!!!
