Posted for wide-spread dissemination. Please support our troops.

Sounds like VietNam all over again.

Support Our Troops BUMP!

[BOBTHENAILER]

Enough is enough. Please pass this little gem on to all your ping lists. Time to bury the anti-Americans once and for all.

The anti-war anarchists think Saddam Hussein is a rock star.

These renta maggots in the streets worked for their side in the Viet Nam Wat. It will not work here.

9/11 is the big difference and the potential of the Islamofacists/kazis to kill more innocent Americans has made this war personal.

Then we have a real president who insure that his military has the tools to do the job, and he will not get in the way re preparation and actual battle situations. That was not done in Nam.

Privately, some soldiers wonder if the patriotic mood and pro-military spirit in the wake of the Sept. 11 attacks has evaporated.

So do I. Or maybe it was a fluke. :(

Those protestors make me sick, really. As if they know something that Bush doesn't about Saddam. Whatever.

[Uncle Miltie]

I support our troops.

Sounds like VietNam all over again.

Sounds like WWI, WWII, etc. The same old socialist/communist organizations. International Agency Center/ANSWER, Not in Our Name, Worker's World Party, etc. They are all linked. Ramsey Clark, Brian Becker, Richard Becker Sam Marcy, etal.

Thats what these peace maggots want, the want to recreate the peace love. sex and rock and roll of the VietNam era. They saw through the movies what a cool time it was and are bummed out they missed it. Hate to disappoint 'em but Morrison Garcia and Hendrix are dead. J-Lo and Madonna though better looking can't create the same atmosphere.Can't catch lightning in bottle twice.

Sounds like VietNam all over again.

That's what the organizers of the protests would like, but it ain't gonna happen.

[Grampa Dave]

Time for some more coffee: "These renta maggots in the streets worked for their side in the Viet Nam War" not Wat.

“They don’t have to support what’s happening,” he said, “but at least support the soldiers”

Ooooh, it just makes my blood boil that this should ever even
have to be spelled out to some people.
God bless our troops.

[piasa]

Nah, sounds like a Detroit paper trying to exagerate the impact of some loonies in costumes toting signs with slogans they don't even understand.

The activists want it to be like Vietnam, but they don't have the numbers.

[SAMWolf]

Thanks for the ping.

I recall that in the early stages of Afghanistan, the media and left-wingers were trying to sell it as a "quagmire" -another "Vietnam." IMHO, the anti-war protests had little to do with Iraq and everything to do with Bush. It is the same left wing political groups trying to undermine the center and center-right drift of international politics. An exceptional success in Iraq will damage left wing power for decades (and they know it.)

Just my two cents...

[BOBTHENAILER]

It will not work here. 9/11 is the big difference and the potential of the Islamofacists/kazis to kill more innocent Americans has made this war personal.

I'll do everything in my power to destroy these sob's that want to ruin all that is good in America.

A new day has dawned and they will be blinded by the light.

Bingo....your two cents is a gold mine.

This is a fight for their life for the left, and they are pulling out all the stops.

"...phone calls home to worried wives and loved ones..."

This is the REAL effect of Susan Scarandon and other snots around the world. For the sake of a stale career and some face time they are willing to sacrifce our best and bravest by seeking to distract and humiliate them. I'm proud of my friends in arms, those who have gone and those who are still at home. Support them! Work with your church, school, job or whatever to send notes and letters of encouragement. Remember '91? Let's do it again!
