Just doin' what Mothers do, like the criminal's Moms who say "He is such a good boy..."
Her name says it all.
There has been the occasional mother who admits, "...he has to die." But they are fewer in number, and they don't get attention from a press that's anti-death penalty.
Hope they make an example of this person.
"Officer".... unbelievable.
I'm sure she'll find plenty of those elected officials to help.
That should have been the end of the story. What does she want him to do? Sit in the OC and do nothing but collect his pay? She, her son, and every legislator who tries to get him off should be run out of the country on a rail.
I'm sure you're right and I'm surprised Maxine Waters didn't jump in the middle of it with both feet instead of just saying her son has great integrity and dignity.
LOL! Maxine didn't even get that right.
Mom Watada is just a little late. She never should have let him enter the military. Dimbulbs, both of them.
any and all mothers should stick up for their sons.
His dad is an antiwar activist and has been for some time. I believe he joined with an agenda, JMO.
Maxine Waters should stick to issues involving California and not put her ugly nose in to places it doesn't belong. Washington State has representatives that this "mother" can go to for a letter (and their demoncRat representative would no doubt be amicable to write such a letter). Our elected officials in Congress should also not made such anti-American comments during a time of war, and when they do they should be arrested for sedition.
1st Lt. Watada volunteered for military service, and knew that he might be called upon to serve in a war. Whatever happens to him, he deserves his fate. As my son and two of my nephews (all enlisted) serve (or have served) in Iraq, this man demonstrates his cowardice. How disgusting.
All sane human beings are opposed to war...
All sane human beings should do everything to avoid war.
All who VOLUNTEER for the military and ACCEPT an Officer's commission should be EXPECTED to obey LEGAL orders.
Refusal to do so brings significant consequences -- which should fall upon this clown's head like a load of bricks...
And it shall..
Semper Fi
"I'm here to get what I can," said Ho
Yep, that's what Hoes say.
I couldn't agree more, SoldierDad and thank your son and nephews for their service for me.
Where's his dad? Just asking.
Ho! Ho! Ho!
Exactly, he's toast!
Thank you, and I'll pass on your thanks to them.
He might just be a COWARD.
He lives in Hawaii and I believe he's an elected state official.
