The Time Is Now (Democrats display disdain for our military disrespecting General Petraeus)
Focal Point USA ^ | September 10, 2007 | Paige Turner

Today, I received news that an acquaintance lost his son in Iraq. The news of the death of this brave young warrior has touched the hearts of many. During this time of war, we have lost close to 3,800 warriors in Iraq while trying to bring stability to the area. However, today, the news was different. The news of a this fallen warrior hit home after watching the Democrats display their absolute disdain for our military by acting in an insulting disrespectful manner toward General Petraeus.

I will not apologize for Lantos because he did a perfect job of exposing himself for what he really is...a commie pinko. Skelton, Lantos and Moveon.org’s ad set the stage for the American people to connect the dots. But it may be up to the Pajamas Media to bring it about.

My thoughts and prayers go out to your friends who lost their beloved one. He joins America’s fallen heroes and now walks with God.

I share your disdain for the despicable traitors in the US Congress who showed traitorous disrespect for General Petraeus today. They not only dishonored the military, but they dishonored all those who gave their lives to defend and protect this nation. I called Tom Lantos office today to express my views on his despicable behavior. His staff member hung up on me immediately. Apparently, freedom of speech is only for Liberals.

God bless these brave young warriors! I have a nephew and niece in Iraq right now and my son is aboard the Kitty Hawk in the China Sea.

Prayers to your friends family. His service to his country is appreciated by those who support the mission and the troops.

The display today by the democrats was anti-American and unpatriotic. The democrats are far more traitorous than General Petreaous....

Paige, thank God for that family and for their child’s service.

We MUST preserve the value of that sacrifice by insisting that we win in Iraq. I believe it is necessary for us to be there, and that it is just for us to be there.

We will win when we stabilize the country enough to buy some Iraqi government the breathing space required to fix their sovereignty firmly in the minds of domestic and foreign enemies.

The Kitty Hawk is now engaged in war games in the China Sea during her final deployment at sea to be replaced by a nuclear powered carrier next year.

Guranteed, the American pipple will not connect the dots unless they are spoon fed the facts. Like the hapless 16 year-old beauty queen, the average American has no idea where Iraq is, or why it is crucial for our forces to achieve our goals there.
