Well, I guess tonight we finally got a chance to... Spit back!
Rest In Peace ... Top, Alex, Rapp, McClean, Ford ... and all the countless others.
We held your honor high when others would not. It got to be a very heavy load at times, but, we refused to let em drag you through the mud of which you fell ... AGAIN.
Tonight, America has redeemed your honor.
And, in so doing, has held into account one (those) who broke faith with all of us and sullied your sacrifice.
To each and every American citizen out there who voted to vindicate us; and on behalf of all off our fallen comrades, we humbly and simply say:
"Thank you America."
"THANK YOU!"

Thank you...for all of your sacrafice.
Veterans, I hope you will consider this victory your (long overdue) ticker-tape parade!
You guys are heroes who fought for freedom, always were, and always will be.
This ex-Squid says stand up and take a bow, sir. You've certainly earned the right to walk with a little more pride today. I'm just sorry it took so long for you and your brothers to get their due.
Amen
Thank you for your service and thank you for helping in this victory!!
The bastards have more than a "spitting" coming, but this is a good start.
To the Vietnam Veterans,
Thank you for wading into the jungle again on America’s behalf. The past few months you took some heavy fire. Still, it doesn't compare to the barrage you dished out. You helped so many people see the light and understand what was truly at stake.
A thought for your fellow soldiers who lost their life in Vietnam,
"It is foolish and wrong to mourn the men who died. Rather we should thank God that such men lived."
- General George S. Patton, JR
God Bless all vets and keep our brothers, now in uniform keeping us safe in our cushioned life, safe and brave. We continue to have a Commander-In-Chief who appreciates the military, let's them do their job and treats them with respect.
Amen. And check out my tagline.
Hey, I like it! Spitooey on you, hippy scum.
Thanks bro I was with 101 abn div 69-70 I believe we can not let up on John Kerry if we want the world to know the truth it was not politic that motivated us it was that scum bag John Kerry. he and his V V A W will tell the truth and now we can win in Iraq. Glenn Scarborough
