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

Good Morning.

Yes, be on your toes... there are a lot of pissed off libs today, and we all know it doesn't take much to explode their little brains.
(Poser) I think we will make it easily. It will be close for 7890. Attention. Your attention please. Today's goal is 7890.

So that's where all the duct tape went!
To: JFC
Speaking of Sarandon...she asks in her crappy commercial....What have the Iraqi people ever done to us??
I think we can now effectively answer her: They've welcomed us with open arms and thank us for bestowing freedom and hope on to their lives.

Those Wankers should be chased out of Iraq by it's people!!
They have done absolutely NOTHING to help their plight for decades and IMO have aided their Supressors!!
