Operation Iraqi Freedom
This thread is dedicated to the brave men and women of the
Armed Forces of the United States of America.
"Wish You Were Here"
For all the free people that still protest.
You're welcome. We protect you and you are protected by the best.
Your voice is strong and loud,
but who will fight for you? No one standing in your crowd.
We are your fathers, brothers, and sons,
wearing the boots and carrying guns.
We are the ones that leave all we own,
to make sure your future is carved in stone.
We are the ones who fight and die,
We might not be able to save the world, Well, at least we try.
We walked the paths to where we are at
and we want no choice other than that.
so when you rally your group to complain,
take a look in the back of your brain.
In order for that flag you love to fly
wars must be fought and young men must die.
We came here to fight for the ones we hold dear.
If that's not respected, we would rather stay here.
So please stop yelling, put down your signs,
and pray for those behind enemy lines.
When the conflict is over and all is well,
be thankful that we chose to go through hell.
Corporal Joshua Miles and all the boys from 3rd Battalion 2nd Marines,
Kuwait 3/9/2003

Cavuto's Common Sense is another good one. Should be up on the FoxNews website in a few moments.

If you listen now, she is trying to re-write her report to add more of a negative, leftist spin.

Wonderful NY POST cover!
The parents of a friend of my daughter's deliver a variety of papers and have been giving me leftover copies of the NY POST the last couple weeks...had no idea you could get "hard copies" here in SO. CA...I will sure look forward to seeing the front page tomorrow! It's a blessed relief from the LA TIMES.
To: retrokitten

I just saw a commercial breakaway on MSNBC. It was INCREDIBLE, especially considering the source.
Music swells to an opening on black screen as white script letters appear:
Saluting our next
"Greatest Generation"Beautiful pictures of our service men and women in action begin to flash on the screen, as President Bush's voice comes on:
"The world has witnessed the skill and honor and resolve of our military in the course of battle.We have seen the character of this new generation of America's armed forces...and we thank God that liberty found such brave defenders"
[Jets flying off a carrier, infantry running thru the desert, soldier shaking hands with old Arab man}
There WILL be a day of reconning for the Iraqi regime and that day is drawing near
[Tanks race across the desert, night-goggled sodiers searching a home...CROWD ROARS ITS APPLAUSE]
We will be re-lent-less in our pursuit of victory. [cheers!]
Fade to soldier's helmet with sticker that says "God Bless America".
Un-frenchin'-believable!
