Dear Soldiers:
By now, many of you have heard the seditionist words of Democratic Senator Richard Durbin of Illinois. On the floor of the Senate, he has compared the treatment of enemy combatants to Pol Pot, the Soviet gulags, and the Nazis. Yes, he really did say that.
We want to begin by telling you that we can never say this enough -- we are profoundly grateful for what you and your families are sacrificing for our nation. Other than the leftist America haters, most Americans feel the same. Most of us can't do what you do, however, many of us would risk our lives for you if you needed our help here.
Durbin and the leftist whackjobs in his party do not speak for most Americans. He is the lunatic fringe. He and his Democrat pals are so angry that they are out of power that they will do and say anything to capture power. Even if it hurts America, hurts your morale, and puts you at greater risk. They will challenge and suppress your votes if they believe it will give them political advantage.
Please know this. While you are fighting for our way of life over there, we will fight for you over here. We are not going to let the America haters get away with it. We will be in their faces and will not back down. They did it during Vietnam. They will not get away with it this time.
No matter where you serve around the world, millions pray everyday for your safety and your safe return home. Not only are you protecting us, you are bringing freedom to oppressed people and giving hope to them that their children will have a chance for a good life. The torture chambers are gone. The rape rooms are gone. The government murders and imprisonment of innocents is gone.
We call you heroes. We know that you will say you are not heroes; you are just doing your jobs. Come on, you can't fool us. That is exactly what real heroes say.
Godspeed
I will sned it to all I can
Their disdain for our Commander-in-Chief is why they are willing to trash those who are serving in harms way at GITMO and in Iraq, and Afghanistan. The level of discourse has never been this disingenuous since the Vietnam War, and once again it's the Democrats who are aiding and abetting our enemies with their ridiculous comparisons to Nazi Germany and the Gulags of the former Soviet Union
Good stuff.
It truly is sedition. They want power, and it doesn't matter if our nation is at great risk. There is nothing they will not do.
Amen
Thanks for bringing our attention to this letter! God bless our troops!
Senator Durbin is a complete fool and no one should take him seriously. Unfortunately, some of our enemies might!
BTW--any music news lately?
What we are witnessing is the true disdain the left has for this country, and I truly believe we are witnessing the beginning of the end for the Democrat Party.
Dick Durbin's remarks yesterday has opened many of the blinded eyes, who pay little attention to either party, but votes for the Party who will best protect them.
There is no doubt that the Democrats are incapable of defending this Nation, and their recent public outbursts is all the proof anyone needs to figure out that they have forgotten the lesson's of 9/11
No. Sorry.
I am frustrated.
HUAH!
I feel your pain! Every day I check the mail! Have you had any conversations lately about it?--I haven't.
Amen Again.
Doug, THANKS for writing this.
BUMP!
Thanks for the ping, Blur.
Thanks doug. I sent this to my friend in the Air Force and told him to keep passing it along.
Thanks.
No, thank you. You fight hard for what you believe in.
