No troop photos with Kerry

Posted on 12/13/2006 11:56:38 AM PST by debbieargel

Senator Kerry is making a trip to Iraq. I just wanted everyone to know that I am emailing the troops I have addresses for, and asking them not to pose in photos with him. The sole purpose of the trip is to show the American public that everything is o.k. and to get photo ops to send to the AP. This is shameful.

I hope they come up with something.

Since Kerry was allegedly a Naval Officer, I suggest they take a lesson from the crew of the USS Pueblo when forced to pose for photographs by the North Koreans, and use the "Hawaiian Good Luck Symbol".

All images were originally released by the North Koreans. :)

You are awesome for doing that, and I send you my sincere, heartfelt respect and congratulations. I showed one fellow co-worker the "infamous" sign of members the Minnestoa National Guard's res0pnse to Kerry, and she said to me, "Well, he was speaking the truth." Regardless of all of the spin, we all know that Kerry was telling the college kids what they wanted to hear -- bottom line. Don't ever, ever let anyone make you feel that you are wrong when you know that you are correct in your heaart and in your logical observation and thinking. :-) All of God's blessings to you and yours this holiday season.

I would prefer that the simply turn their backs to him. But, then again, this act would probably get them in trouble with the brass and Kerry is U.S. Senator. "What" are the good citizens of Massachusetts smoking anyway? Guess a theme for another thread at another time. Regardless, the best and "safest" thing for our troops to do is simply not go to any gathering at which Kerry will be, thereby not risking getting into any trouble with their brass.

DARN!!! Our cable has been spotty today (first time in months we've had trouble), and I missed it. Will kick myself all evening.
