I still hate him.

Never forget...the SOBs will keep on picking away.

Never forget that ZERO tried this and was serious about it...never forget how he feels about the troops and the nation.

Never forget how he has shown his contempt for us and our troops.

Never forget.

There is LOTS more going on.

The whole AIG thing is about making you look the other way while they ram this budget monster through.

As if I’m going to trust this Administration.

Wow - what a powerful picture / juxtaposition. Prayers and tears for that brave little boy and his family.

More like... an opportunity for the Obama administration to intimidate US military personnel and their families.

It was a message. And an unmistakable, unsubtle one, at that. The message was...”this is what it ‘could’ be like if you don’t play nice with us”.

It beats repeated cut & paste posts and paragraphs of text that most people will quickly scroll past

It’s basically a 15-30 second TV add format I have used for years

You have less than 8 seconds to capture the viewer or they are gone

FReeper potlatch animated the 2-frame slideshow

I imagine Ollie North can relate to that slideshow and website - and many WWII, Korean War, Vietnamese War, Desert Storm, and now Iraq War and Afghanistan Vets and their families also - MIAs too

I expect Hussein II and his thugs will make a full court press to regulate and tax the internet soon
Even the latest failed newspapers are going to 100% online internet newsites now - Their problemo is unlike the Wall Street Journal they have no way to be able to charge for visting their newsites

More and more businesses are now cutting print ads and with the economy seeking to use limited targeted TV spots and mostly internet ads - I am specifically thinking of the parent corporation that owns and manages Red Lobster and Olive Garden and also a steak house (cannot recall the name) that are still profitable - most are increasing in sales - their upper scale restaurants are way off -

do you know the back-story of that young man who lost a parent (I'll assume his dad)? My heart goes out to him.

Darden, a very interesting company I hear. Based out of Florida.

I saw Bill, too...it was touching when he mentioned his son served in Iraq. I guess they never expected the national outrage over this issue. We’re just getting started, Barry.

Another part of Zero’s plan is to charge military personnel for their dependent’s medical care or at least half. Anyone found out if that’s still on the table?? If so, that must be stopped as well.

Thank you for the ping, Pandy! Looks like this could be just the beginning of ‘poop’ (for lack of a postable word) that is going to be attempted to be shoved down our throats for FOUR more years (minus 2 months).

Yes, like the “fairness doctrine” which was exposed for what it really was, they will tack on amendments to massive bills that we won't see.
