Doesn't it bother anyone that here there's a thread putting $$$$ before the lives (or remains) of our POWS/MIAS....and at the same time, there's another thread running where the President of the US is more interested in showing the Mexican President a good will gesture than showing interest in how the majority of Amerikans feel, or be concerned with the criminal aspect?

That summabeach Gore was right back in '92 when he waved his arms up and down and said something like, "What should be up is down and what should be down is up".....I'm not saying he had the issues right, only the saying!!! Amerika has lost her moral compass; it's been replaced by this lust for $$$$$$$$$.

I never saw that picture. Oh wow, how awful. I wish I had that picture. OH JudyB`1938 how horrible. I send stuff like that to my brother in law that loves the Clintons and voted for them and also Hillary.

If you ever see it again I would love to have it. Thank you . Maybe if I keep sending him things horrific like these he will change his heart and mind.

Who left these people there?
Could such a people have truly won the war?
...As they did not...but, militarily.
Yet of what relevance is that after politics?
There seems an end on't....

...Were it not now for economics!

You are probably right about this one. However, judges have been sued under title 42 U.S. C. Sec. 1983 for violating someones due process and other outrageous acts.

The problem with many of those appointed judges is they think they are shielded from serving jail time for obstructing justice or outrageous acts against attorneys who are officers of the court. I actually have read a case where a judge was thrown in jail and sued for having an attorney dragged into jail by the bailiff simply because she was correcting the judge. Guess what? She won against that judge. He served time in jail and had to pay monetary damages of a civil nature to the injured attorney for assault and battery. I'd have to pull that case to refer the name of it. But the issues pertained to 'immunity broken' and how officers of the courts and judges can be personally sued under color of some state or federal law.

HI Halfirish....Because of my being a Republican all my life I am terribly disappointed in how so many Republicans are behaving in both houses. It breaks my heart to see how liberal they are voting and making decisions.

Here is what I mean by a Clinton agenda thing. LOL.... Clinton to me represents everything evil. He has NO redeeming qualities at all, Gosh even his hair looks like a chia pet. hahahahaha

So when the Republicans behave and think and VOTE like a Clinton would... It is a Clinton thing. It is ALL a continuing part of the way Clinton thinks...feels.....his agenda for Americia. To loath the military, to not give a hoot about POW's and MIA's , to sleep with the communists so to speak in word and deed.

Having Trade with Chine.... BIG time Clinton agenda that the Republicans wanted sooooo badly and ticked me off.
Now this wanting to have trade relations with Viet Nam and ADD to that no full account of POW/MIS's more Snow Bunny ticked off.

Gosh I hope I explained it better this time. Sometimes I just cut to the chase ...COMMIE Clinton..... commie leaning HOUSE's in our government.

I am just so tired of Americans NOT being as outraged as I am at the ENEMY WITHIN destroying America.

I am so glad all of you care and are working so hard to help fight back what is happening. I am so glad I am not alone in how I feel. ( of course MR. Snow Bunny feels the same as we all do. )

Thanks for the flag.

I Ditto Aloha Ronnie's...."NUTS"...!!

Question is...what does "W" have to say about this "Bravo Sierra" congressional stance???

Attention, Mr. Rove:

Wheel out the Bully-Pulpit and point it in the direction of GWB. If this betrayal comes to fruition, kiss 2004 goodbye.

Best FReegards.

Duke Cunningham IS the real deal.

He's a decorated Naval Aviator and ACE with "Mucho" confirmed Mig kills during the bloody sorties over NVN. His expertise in flying the F-4 Phantom is legendary.

He is one of the "un-sung" heroes in congress we don't here about. He's low key, low profile and flew rings around McCain.

He flew, fought, fighted some more, and succeeded to return. If anyone has watched 'The History Channel' on the airwar in Viet Nam, you've seen Cmdr. Duke Cunningham. Again, He's the real deal, true patriot, an outstanding Aviator and Naval Officer, who will not be replicated for many, many years to come.

Best FReegards.

Anyone who supports resumption of trade with Communist Viet Nam ... is not a partiot and disgraces the service and sacrifice of all those who fought Communism in Southeast Asia.

Like the old fogies in Hanoi, you seem to be fighting a war that concluded 25 years ago.

My interest is in seeing some improvement in the lives of the many millions of South Vietnamese patriots and former soldiers who fought by the sides of U.S. servicemen, often died with them, and left families that were pillaged and ruined by the Stalinist Hanoi government after 1975.

The Hanoi government - infested as it it with decrepit old generals who will not survive much longer - will tumble under the weight of free trade.

Half the population of Vietnam has tremendous respect for America, despises the Hanoi regime, and recognizes the sacrifice of U.S. servicemen. Why should they suffer to extract vengeance on the remaining hundred thousand or so Communist Party sychophants?

Capitalism will easily whump the Vietnamese CP. Vietnam is not China.

Why don't you take a trip to Saigon, take a look around, then come back and tell me that's not the case.

Non sibi sed patriae.

I looked for that picture of Clinton on my hard drive, but I couldn't find it. It was taken during his visit to Viet Nam. Do you know how to search out news pictures? I don't. I think it was from US News or something like that.

Sorry, I guess I didn't make myself clear. I wasn't talking about trade relations. I had hoped you'd address the issue of dismissing the Viet Nam war as nothing but a footnote in that kid's history book. I thought it would have more impact with him if it came from you, since you are of a younger generation.
