Clinton was impeached. If the Senate had been majority Republican he would have been out on his ear.

I know Mesta. I feel the same way. I’m trying to channel my anger and frustration today productively, as I know you are. At the very least, McChrystal needs to go. Someone needs to lose their rank and retirement over these Marines deaths. That is an absolute necessity.

“In Flanders Fields”
In Flanders fields the poppies blow
Between the crosses, row on row,
That mark our place; and in the sky
The larks, still bravely singing, fly
Scarce heard amid the guns below.
We are the dead. Short days ago
We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow,
Loved, and were loved, and now we lie
In Flanders fields.
Take up our quarrel with the foe:
To you from failing hands we throw
The torch; be yours to hold it high.
If ye break faith with us who die
We shall not sleep, though poppies grow
In Flanders fields.
Lt.-Col. John McCrae (1872 - 1918)

Clinton was impeached. But what happened to him. He was found not guilty. Nothing happened. He committed perjury. Nothing happened. He prevented the intel agencies from communicating which led to 9/11. He robbed the National Archives and destroyed classified documents. What happened to clinton? He left office and became a Bush Brother. THAT’S what happened to clinton.

Did you see “We Were Soldiers Once, And Young?”
There was a song by Clan an Drumma, “Sgt. MacKenzie.” I bought the whole CD just for that track. It is haunting. It goes through my head every time one of our Troops fall. Remember Me. That is what I keep thinking. All these Soldiers. So much pain and for what?
I don’t know. And they don’t either. It hurts so much.
So we remember. And that just is not enough. Not for this.

But it wasn’t and HE wasn’t and nothing happened to him except that he is a very wealthy criminal now.

Isn’t that the most haunting song you have ever heard? I haven’t been able to shake it ever since the first time I heard it.
Remember me. Remember me. It just goes ‘round and ‘round. I pray for our Troops. I am trying to reach a voice who can speak louder than I. Pray G-d someone hears.

I do recall the song in the background of that film...it is haunting.
It is a Memorial.

We don’t know the names of those Marines or where they were deployed from yet do we?

"Obama has decided that the new rules of engagement require our troops not to engage the enemy or return fire unless they can guarantee that no civilians will be hurt or killed and that they must withdraw (retreat) when they are attacked."

The 105MM was the Infantrys best friend in my day. We have much better options today. Ever watch the Military Channel?

That would be clinton. And NOTHING happened to him. Not exactly, he got re-elected.

Clinton was impeached. Not for Blackhawk Down. For going down I guess.

That Traitor McCain told us we have nothing to fear from that man, Obama.
