UPDATE: Reader David Ward writes:

Thank you for your great work and especially the coverage of the picture of the soldiers mocking "Jon Carry."

My daughter is on the far right in the picture. We spoke to her last night and again this morning. They are quite astounded at the coverage. They were furious at Kerry's remarks and wanted to do something. I guess they did.

Yours truly,

David Ward

I've got a bad weakness for our military babes in uniform. Call me crazy...

You're crazy.

Haven't you heard? If she is in the military, she is dum. D...U...M. Dum!

Ronald Reagan inspired me attend a service academy, from which I graduated in 1989.

I then served my obligation of 5 years and got out during the Clinton decimation of the military. His leadership inspired me to resign even my inactive reserve commission.

While in law school, 9/11 happened, and that inspired me to seek to seek re-entry on active duty as a judge advocate.

I am a proud veteran of OEF.

I was throughly insulted personally, and on behalf of the troops I work with, by Senator Kerry's insulting cheapshot made at the expense of all who serve in the military.

I do not accept Senator Kerry's faux apology.

Fox had the original guy that posted this on his blog (some news guy from Wisconsin). He said he spoke with the father of the gal in the middle of the photo and he said the group is from the Minnesota National Guard. The father said that the troops are well-aware of what is being said over here. The father said they aare also smart enough not to be taken in by Kerry's apology.

They are also miffed at the news blackout on all of the good stuff that is going on over there. I believe they are a unit involved in more of the rebuilding aspect of things over there.

I pray this expose' of Kerry's heart turns into an enormous boost for our military in the eyes of Joe and Jane America.

Bravo Zulu to this father, his daughter and our other warriors in Irak!

What the US Army recruiting poster under "President" Kerry would look like:

Our brave warriors n Irak respond to Jon Carry"


Kerry is no different re his hatred of a strong America and our warriors than 99.9% of the rats in congress. Every rat running for election should have to face a copy of this banner everytime they show their treasonous faces. Pelosi, Murtha, Clintoon, Boxer, Kennedy, Durbin, Levin, Rangle, Reid and other rats in congress hate our military and a strong America. Just look at their voting records the past two years as President Bush pointed out this week.

Kerry is shown leading his fellow hate America and our military Rats to their final destination in American Politics:

Vote against all traitors this election day. Support our troops and their CIC, President Bush.

I do not accept

We know what you really mean, but are too much of a gentleman, and attorney, to write.

My Godson, JD, 29, is closing his successful English-as-a-second-language school to enlist. He goes in as an E4 to Benning next week. He has his Masters degree.

He says he does not want to answer the question of ...what did you do when...twenty years from now with: ...I taught English.

This is the most important lesson he could give his students about being an American.

God bless him. God protect all of them.

I'm hoping that terrific photo will be seen several times a day up to and on Election Day. If I had Kerry's (wife's) money, I'd have billboards put up everywhere so people remember it when they enter the voting booths.

How proud their loved ones must be!!

God Bless our Troops!!!
