"I will pay for what you have had so far but I cannot in good conscience serve you -- get out now!!"

My favorite quote

Dan,

I got a personal message from "KQ" and "KQ" believes that this story is a hoax.
According to the e-mail "KQ" checked into this story. I advised "KQ" to post his e-mail message.

I don't know "KQ" nor do I know if the restaurant story is true or not.

FYI.

Now...I'M shedding tears!!! I have had this series of awful experiences recently. I teach in an inner city public high school in south florida. My mostly immigrant kids have been ripping this their adopted country and our beloved President George W. Bush because their PARENTS (I suspect) are mad that Gore lost. It get's extremely sickening to me that these kids take this attitude. I hear comments like:
"If it get's REALLY bad...my momma's going to take us back to Haiti." The last time it happened...I told them all to just GO and later in the day my job was threatened by the administration.

SO...when I see things like this here in Freeper land (a place I like to call home...where I feel safe) it really gets me going.

I'm trying to get my commission in the US Army Reserve reactivated...as a Major in Armor branch...just in case. My wife is MAD...and my students are happy...because if I'm activated...they won't have to work so hard to graduate from my class in American Government. Some actually told me this. Last year, I was Social Studies Teacher of the Year at my school. Tell me again...why do I bother?

So far, Jeb Bush, my Congresscritter and four senior officers have written me personal letters of recommendation to get my commission back. If they say "NO" at least I'll have my dignity. Then....if they deserve it...I'll flunk those little ingrates! BWAHAHAHAHAHAH!!!!

I always wonder if the internet stories are true or an urban legend.

I found this on the MCRGO board. Apparently, it came from this site here

The poster there claimed Special Ops Net as the source. Whatever it is, it's a heck of a story.

I just got the same message. I don't know if it is true or not.

If it is a hoax, I think it may go down with the email tax Bill 602-P with a fictional Congressman named Tony Schnell.

"I then asked if he remembered what he was doing on February 16, 1969"

I am speechless.
Of ALL the stories that I have read since Sept 11 this is one of several that literally touched my heart and soul.
This story touched all my emotions about Sept 11, Viet Nam, anti-war protestors, Patriotism and our POW/MIA's.

February 16, 1969, I KNOW where I was, about 1/2 mile off the coast of Viet Nam giving gunfire support
to the Army and Marines engaged in Operation Bold Mariner,
which at that time was the biggest amphibious assault since Korea.

I am so proud of what the people did in that restaurant
(which IS an example of our great nation)
did that I know that there IS HOPE!
Thank you and God Bless You Dan.

God Bless America

Casablanca. That is exactly what I immediately thought of too. Perhaps the author did too.
