"What's a skinwaster?" That would be Long Cut-speak for those bipeds who hate their country enough, and are craven cowards enough, to support through their actions those dictators who would destroy it, in time of armed conflict.
They are on wondrous display at any recent protest march. they would be useful as comic relief, if their purpose was not so bone-deep rotten.

I know you pulled your post, but I still think this is fitting, and clearly represents how most of us here feel:
"War is an ugly thing but not the ugliest of things; the decayed and degraded state of moral and patriotic feelings which thinks that nothing is worth war is much worse. A man who has nothing for which he is willing to fight, nothing which is more important than his own personal safety, is a miserable creature and has no chance of being free unless made and kept so by the exertions of better men than himself."
-- John Stuart Mill
I've had that quote on my profile since 9/11 and it clearly serves us now.

To all who shall see these presents greetings knowing that reposing special trust and confidence in the fidelity, valor patriotism of the Warrior Nurse I do appoint him a Lieutenant in the US NAVY
This is what the President says to all the officers of the Military. We are trained professionals something that the peaceniks can't grasp. It is us against them they hate our way of life and they hate our freedoms. I gave my word and took an oath to protect those freedoms just as my father did 50 years before me. So let it be known that I am willing to die for what I believe in. What are the peaceniks willing to die for?

I think that at least once a month -- maybe even more often -- the networks should show footage of the towers being hit, the towers collapsing, the Pentagon on fire, the crater in Shanksville, etc., in the middle of "Friends" or "Survivor" or whatever other horseclinton in on prime time network TV. I agree. I'm absolutely amazed how short many people's memories are. (Horseclinton is a great term to describe prime time network TV!)

If its true that our troops and their families are being harrased by the hippy wanna-be's it needs to be reported to the American people. I don't begrudge the nit-wits their right to protest but: I WANT TO SEE IT COVERED BY THE PRESS IN A FAIR AND BALANCED WAY. I. E. IF THE PEOPLE WHO SPONSORED THE PROTESTS ARE COMMUNISTS AND SOCIALISTS, THE PEOPLE SHOULD BE TOLD THAT. IF SOME OF THE VERMIN TRASHED THE CITIES THEY WERE "PEACEFULLY" PROTESTING IN, THE PEOPLE SHOULD KNOW IT. IF THE SLIME BALLS ARE HARRASSING OUR MILLITARY AND THEIR FAMILIES; THE PRESS NEEDS TO TELL THE PEOPLE. WE AS AMERICANS HAVE A RIGHT TO KNOW THE TRUTH ABOUT THESE PROTESTERS, NOT HAVE IT COVERED UP BY A BIASED PRESS CORE ATTEMPTING TO INFLUENCE OUR PEO0PLE BY FALSELY TRYING TO MAKE RADICAL BRAIN DEAD HIPPIES LOOK LIKE THE MAJORITY OF OUR POPULATION.(See my previous post 189 about this)

I hate them. I hate them because they can kill our confidence, corrode our will, poison our history and make us believe we are the base, savage and dismal society they see through their cataracts of failure. These people can kill America.I've got a group of high school kids that frequently use my Letters to the Editor to refute their idiotic teachers in debates, and they win. My eldest boy is a sophomore at UofM. He has a bunch of conservative pals, but the leftist influence there is pervasive and I constantly feed him articles from here and elsewhere.
One of his best friends waxed an anti-war puke in a large debate on campus the other day.

"I can understand why they want to protest, because they don't want any harm to come to us"
I honestly believe it's not the troops they are protesting and marching for. The anger and the continuous rise in anti-Americanism shows only concern for the people of Iraq! I was a baby during Vietnam but these people remind me of the anti-vietnam crowd....which really means....anti-American troops! Don't be surprised if these idiots start spitting on our troops when they come home!

My windows are lined with little American flags that's how I show my support in my home.Great job, bentfeather. Keep up the good work.

The guys I pinged are regular visitors to the Canteen, men who aren't hesitant about speaking out. They're out there on the front lines of our war on terror, and they know the level of support here in the US.Thanks for your words of support and know that I will ALWAYS keep the faith, especially for the guys you referred to out on the front lines in the war on terror.
I wish I could do more.

These "anti-war peaceniks" are scum and traitors. They sure are! They are Islamic Jihad supporters and accessories in the 9/11 terrorist attack, which make them equally guilty.

"It IS getting to be a little like the '60s."
This time around makes me even sicker than the 1st time.
I used to see this type of stuff everyday in downtown Chicago
when I first got out of the service.
"...the same people are behind it"
Yes, the same bunch of traitors.
To: Sparta
Thanks.
There's some great info here.
