I'm guessing that you are a mother.

My mother cried when I left. It is something I will never forget. The war took a toll on my dad also, as he was never quite the same - even though I made it back without one scratch.

God Bless you and your family.

people like those alngside of the road. Are most of them on vacation? Or are they between jobs? he he I suspect most don't have to worry about a schedule because they're sucking off the government pig teats. Could I be wrong?

One way to find out. Since they're in a public area (a road) it should be possible to get photos of all of them and publish the photos and request information about them. Bet we could get an earful!

They are in public, they can't claim invasion of privacy.

You are correct, there are no parenthesis around ( FOOL ) in the Bible, I was just using that as to emphasize the word ( FOOL ) that's all.
The point I was making in my comment before was ? if we lose ( because of the MSM and the obstruction of the Democrats ) the war on terror, the liberals and democrats will be the first ones on line to blame Bush and Republicans, and blame Bush and the Republicans for not stomping out terrorism.
Don't you see ? how the liberals/Democrats operate ? they ARE apart of the problem why it's more difficult to win this war on terror, and then, they ( the liberals, Democrats ) will be the first to blame Bush and the Republicans ( IF ) we lose the war on terror ( I believe we are going to win the war on terror ).

She only has a hundred other idiots with her even though just about every liberal blogger is trumpeting her cause.I think it was Instapundent who had an excellent article on Cindy's stupidity.

You can see President Bush's apathy as he plants one on her cheek.

From the first visit.

My nephew was in Iraq, I understand the worry, and he was in the battle of Falujha, and he got hit by 5 bullets , one bullet pierced his arm, and the other 4 hit his chest, but, he was wearing is bullet proof vest.
I saw him 2 months ago, he came back home ok, and he has a Purple Heart metal ( he honorably earned him metal, unlike Kerry's metals ) .

Thanks Prophet. I understood your first post also.

Also, I should have used the plural "parentheses".

My belief is that we will win, and like you, it will be very difficult to overcome the people in this country who do not want that result.

I am totally convinced today because of the response among good, caring people to Cindy Sheehan. Too bad she has set herself up for the big fall that is coming.

Actually ? I was just responding to another posters post ... I was adding to their comment , in the fact, that ( if ) we lose, that the liberals, and democrats will be the first in line to blame ( when ? in fact ? it will be by the liberals/Democrats hand if we lose ) .
I never said, that we are going to lose the war on terrorism, I have faith, that we are going to win, lets just hope, we get another Republican/Conservative President and Congress in 2008.

"Actually ? I was just responding to another posters post ..."

My apologies. I wasn't doubting you at all.

Good guess, wingman1. Does it show that much? LOL Yes, I'm the mother of that soldier. He was stationed in Germany and we hadn't seen him in over a year when he was first sent to Kuwait (before the war started). Then when the war officially began all we knew was that he was "moving forward". It wasn't for a long time until we knew exactly that that meant. Turns out he and his team followed the I.D. into Iraq, through Baghdad and on to Balad.

I know just how your folks felt. I was a walking zombie. I had never cried so hard nor prayed so hard in all my life. Yes, it's hard on the father too. My husband wept along with me as we sat listening to the President announce that it was about to begin. My husband wanted to enlist and become our son's personal bodyguard. Sounds funny now, but if he could have done such a thing, he would have.

I didn't realize that you also served and went to Iraq. I'm thankful that you came home without a scratch. Our son returned safely as well although he did end up in the hospital within just a few hours of returning to Germany. He had caught some nasty bug over there and his fever climbed up to 104 and didn't seem to want to stop. He had a terrible cough for over a year afterwards but after inhaling all of that sand from the storms, it's no wonder his lungs were on a rampage.

From the bottom of my heart, I thank you, wingman1 for your service. God bless you and your family. :) chena

Sheehan, 48, of Vacaville, Calif.,...

That explains a lot; psychotic Bay Area liberal and her dope smoking, strung out, nut job friends...

I hope the Texas sun is really hot this time of year.

They could be selling drugs, in which case, they will eventually suckle of the government teat in some fashion...

Thanks for your response. I'm glad all is well on your homefront.

I served in Vietnam and not Iraq. There are a few geezers my age in Iraq with National Guard or Reserve units. I know a few who did serve in Vietnam and the first Gulf War and are in Iraq now.
