A Military Father’s Response to Senator Durbin and the Democrat Party

Copyright 2005, Dean W. Sueck – Dean.Sueck@gmail.com

I am revolted by Senator Durbin’s remarks comparing the detention center in Gitmo with a death camp.

I have a daughter at Ft. Hood Texas with orders to the Middle East within the next 30 days. To boot, her husband ALSO has orders to the ME and my wife and I will be raising their children for the next year, and permanently if something should happen to them while they’re putting their lives on the line to serve this great country, and that’s my pleasure and my honor.

I figure I have a dog in this Senator Durbin fight.

“Facts are stubborn things.” How true Mr. Adams was when he voiced that statement.

I’m here to tell Senator Durbin and his America hating compatriots in the Democrat Party something.

AMERICAN WARS SET MEN FREE!!!

You want to count them up Senator? Let’s:

Iraq - 26,074,906 (July 2005 est.) people freed!

Afghanistan - 29,928,987 (July 2005 est.) people freed!

Kuwait - 2,335,648 note: 1,291,354 non-nationals (July 2005 est.) freed!

Russia/Eastern Europe – 200,000,000+ people freed!

Panama - 3,039,150 (July 2005 est.) people freed!

Grenada - 89,502 (July 2005 est.) people freed!

Vietnam - 83,535,576 (July 2005 est.) freed, but for these vile Democrats!

South Korea - 48,422,644 (July 2005 est.) people freed!

Japan - 127,417,244 (July 2005 est.) people freed!

Germany - 82,431,390 (July 2005 est.) people freed!

France - 60,656,178 (July 2005 est.) people freed!

Italy - 58,103,033 (July 2005 est.) people freed!

Netherlands - 16,407,491 (July 2005 est.) people freed!

WWI – Beyond count. At least 100 million.

Spanish American War – Populations of the Philippines, Cuba etc.

US Civil War – 9 million black slaves freed!

I’ll grant that these are current populations and many are simply estimates. But a reasonable person will get the point.

AMERICAN WARS SET MEN FREE!!

In the wars Americans get involved in, it’s AMERICAN soldiers, aviators and sailors who are tortured and mistreated, NOT their counterparts.

Care to count them up? Let’s:

Iraq

Soviet Union

China

North Vietnam

North Korea

Germany

Italy

Japan

How many have I left off this list who have tortured and brutalized American soldiers and civilians?

Does the “esteemed” Senator actually compare our prisoner system and guards to the Islamic monsters that we’re fighting the WAR against?? I hear total silence on the subject of the thousands that they’ve kidnapped, tortured and murdered. What was the “good” senator’s opinion of Margaret Hassan’s body when it was found in Fallujah? It was found decapitated with all arms and legs cut off. She was butchered like a lamb to the slaughter and the Senator said not a word!

Democrats don’t CARE about anybody. They USE people for their own partisan political ends. There’s no lie they won’t tell. It’s what they do. It’s their nature to lie like it’s a dogs’ nature to bark.

The Democrat Party has gotten to the point where they’re led by nothing but foaming at the mouth liberals who hate America with a passion that burns white hot. They are only too happy to be used as propaganda tools by the enemies of America. Senator Durbin’s remarks have been picked up by Al-Jazeera and broadcast around the Arab world over and over and over until it becomes truth, much the same as Newsweek’s flushed Koran story was. I’m sure that like Newsweek, Senator Durbin will issue a useless apology that nobody will pick up on, allowing the damage done to America’s reputation and prestige stand.

This puts the lives of American servicemen at risk, including my daughters’ and son-in-laws’ lives, and gives aid and comfort to the enemies of America.

The Republican Leadership won’t say it, neither will the Republican rank-and-file, but I’ll say it: Senator Durbin and his fellow Democrats are seditious, treasonous SOB’s who give aid and comfort to the enemy. They need psychiatric examinations for the delusions that they live under.

A coerced apology is a non-apology. The Democrats will say that he’s been misquoted and that what he spoke was the truth and his words were taken out of context and “everyone does it”. They’ll trot out all the usual suspects to tell us isn’t such a bad thing and it’s something that everybody knows but nobody will talk about.

Senator Durban’s non-apology apology isn’t enough for me. That such a man is serving in a leadership position in the United States Senate is a black mark against the United States government.

Nothing short of Senator Durbin’s resignation will satisfy me. His resignation and those of like-minded people in the government are the only things that will protect my daughter and her husband as they work to protect us and above all, America.

Thanks much!

Yes, I sent a VERY angry email to his office 4-5 days ago. This REALLY hit a nerve with me.

Your words reflect what millions of us feel. Your daughter and her husband are in my prayers as all of our military people are. Please send your letter to as many papers as possible. I'm copying it and sending it to all my e-mail friends and asking them to keep it moving. Maybe it will move some people to write or call their senators and demand his censure and or his resignation.

Excellent! This is getting dangerous, and these people are playing silly power games with the very lives of the American people. It's time to put a stop to it.

I am in agreement. An apology (especially since he tried to lie about what he said) is not enough. This pox on America either needs to resign, or kicked out of office...and yesterday would not be soon enough.

Bless this man and his family and I personally thank them for their service to this great country (it is the minority of Americans that stand in opposition to our military) but unfortunately their words take center stage far too often to aid and comfort the enemy as he had stated very eloquently.

Durbin must be running for President because he is following the Kerry strategy. He does need to improve his rhetoric though because Kerry was a much better liar and there was no free media to counter him. I say this just to remind people that Durbin is only one of many in congress to betray the fighting men of this country. Kerry betrayed me during Vietnam and now Durbin is doing the same thing to my son who is in Iraq. I hold Kerry responsible for many of the deaths in Vietnam, Cambodia, and Laos because he aided the enemy with false propaganda. I now hold Durbin just as responsible as the enemy for any further deaths of US soldiers in Iraq because his traitors propaganda has inspired the enemy. These cowards and traitors should should be stripped of their political protection and if they adore the enemy so much join them and fight physical combat. I am 64 but would gladly fight against either in a combat situation for the freedom and the honor of my brother soldiers. My regret is that these cowards never will and the truth is they don't really care about our soldiers or the enemy but will use either to promote an agenda and power for themselves. They are indeed the lowest scum of all the scum.

You should send this to the Chicago Sun-Times and the Chicago Tribune. They're trying to sweep this story under the rug.
