Let’s that one be for tonk.

[null and void]

Of all the things he's tried to force on us in the last 6 months (has it only been 6 months??)

Rev 12:12 ...Woe to the inhabiters of the earth and of the sea! for the devil is come down unto you, having great wrath, because he knoweth that he hath but a short time.

Yeah.

Mom has promised to pass on the sad news to my WWII, Korea and Vietnam Vet dad as soon as he wakes up from his nap.

~~~ROGER DAT!!! For TONK!!!

We killed Giap’s whole army in ‘68 and this sob gets on TV and LIES about it,,, F.H. ,,, That “WALL” got more names of my Brothers on it because of his LIES!!!...

I, too, blame him for helping to destroy the morale of many a fine Soldier, Sailor, Marine, Airman and Guardsman. One was the valedictorian of my high school who died as a young Marine lieutenant leading his platoon exactly one month to the day after arriving in DaNang. But I suppose he had his good points, like in '69 when we landed on the moon...and suppose we have to remember that we're better than the DU and KOS crowd (which hooted and cheered the death of Tony Snow) so, instead of RIH (rot in hell) I have to say RIP Walter.

Obummer's hit squad strikes again!

[JillValentine]

However many times it’s been, it’s not enough. The troll is still here.

Best news all week.

You can add the bones of millions of innocents killed in Cambodia by Pol Pot to Wally Crackhead’s accomplishment’s

Never happened...

[WhistlingPastTheGraveyard]

True, but it’s a busy night for them. He’ll be a bad memory soon... maybe not soon enough, but soon.

[robertwalker62]

the man that single-handedly lost the Vietnam War (LBJ notwithstanding, grumble grumble) is gone. Ho hum....

[DuncanWaring]

Is that where the term “sh*t detail” came from?

[Melas]

That requires class, and obviously it’s in short supply.

Trust me, you don't *really* want to be in Phoenix this time of year.

Last Saturday it hit 114^o F.

Cheers!

BTW - here's reading for those who were not around during the 'Nam-years... and didn't see what Cronkite said and wrote.

Read it, and be informed.

[silent_jonny]

LOL!!

That somehow fits the thread :)
