Great Find!

“You know, for (the father) to trust us to take his child over and know that we’d take care of him, maybe it’s just me being optimistic, but I think it was a good feeling knowing he trusted us to take care of his child." Pfc. Joseph P. Dwyer

We all know we are the noble ones.

Its the Liberals and the demon-crats that don't trust Americans.

Would love to blow this photo up and put it on a sign to carry at an anti-war rally! It says it all.

...Then you have that Iraqi ambassador to the UN today saying that we are 'exterminating' Muslims. When he knows full well the evils perpetuated by his master. He sits there and knowingly tells lies to the world.

He knows what the Iraqi troopers are doing in Iraq. He knows that they are those who murder Iraqi children, who rape women in front of their husbands, who torture infants within earshot of their parents.

No friend, we're not on some holy war against Muslims. We're bent on annihilating a bunch of totalitarian freaks, and we will do just that.

Interesting comment tonight on Bill O'Reilly. He was reading his emails, and one of them said that American companies were advertising on Al-Jazerra TV. Bill was very unhappy to hear about that. He made the comment that he was going to look into it.

Sooooo ... I expect there will be some fireworks very shortly over this issue of American advertisement on a station which has shown horrible pictures of Americans.

Hell, I have to wonder if it's appeared anywhere Northern California - Washington State.

I live in Washington state. I'm seeing it for the first time on this thread.
