I haven't seen this posted here but my best friend who is serving in the Gulf at this moment sent this around to several people. I think it really hits home... sorry, it's a long one

[ctozgrl]

Okay I hope I'm posting this correctly but here is what he has sent me


OK -- Let's just say for a moment you bunch of pampered, overpaid, unrealistic children had your way and the U.S.A. didn't go into Iraq.
Let's say that you really get your way and we destroy all our nuclear weapons and stick daisies in our gun barrels and sit around with some white wine and cheese and pat ourselves on the back, so proud of what we've done for world peace.

Let's say that we cut the military budget to just enough to keep the National Guard on hand to help out with floods and fires.

Let's say that we close down our military bases all over the world and bring the troops home, increase our foreign aid and drop all the trade sanctions against everybody.
I suppose that in your fantasy world this would create a utopian world where everybody would live in peace. After all, the great monster, the United States of America, the cause of all the world's trouble would have disbanded it's horrible military and certainly all the other countries of the world would follow suit.
After all, they only arm themselves to defend their countries from the mean old U.S.A.
Why you bunch of pitiful, hypocritical, idiotic, spoiled mugwumps. Get your head out of the sand and smell the Trade Towers burning.
Do you think that a trip to Iraq by Sean Penn did anything but encourage a wanton murderer to think that the people of the U.S.A. didn't have the nerve or the guts to fight him?
Barbra Streisand's fanatical and hateful rankings about George Bush makes about as much sense as Michael Jackson hanging a baby over a railing.
You people need to get out of Hollywood once in a while and get out into the real world. You'd be surprised at the hostility you would find out here.
Stop in at a truck stop and tell an overworked, long distance truck driver that you don't think Saddam Hussein is doing anything wrong.
Tell a farmer with a couple of sons in the military that you think the United States has no right to defend itself.
Go down to Baxley, Georgia and hold an anti-war rally and see what the folks down there think about you.
You people are some of the most disgusting examples of a waste of protoplasm I've ever had the displeasure to hear about.
Sean Penn, you're a traitor to the United States of America. You gave aid and comfort to the enemy. How many American lives will your little, "fact finding trip" to Iraq cost? You encouraged Saddam to think that we didn't have the stomach for war.
You people protect one of the most evil men on the face of this earth and won't lift a finger to save the life of an unborn baby. Freedom of choice you say?
Well I'm going to exercise some freedom of choice of my own.
If I see any of your names on a marquee, I'm going to boycott the movie. I will completely stop going to movies if I have to. In most cases it certainly wouldn't be much of a loss.
You scoff at our military whose boots you're not even worthy to shine.
They go to battle and risk their lives so ingrates like you can live in luxury.
The day of reckoning is coming when you will be faced with the undeniable truth that the war against Saddam Hussein is the war on terrorism.
America is in imminent danger.
You're either for her or against her. There is no middle ground.
I think we all know where you stand.
What do you think?
God Bless America!

This was written by Chalie Daniels... it's a shame it is going around now as "author unknown". He certainly deserves the credit :-)

Your right...go to his site, and look in the soapbox, you can find all his letters posted there, they are great!

[concerned about politics]

Very good post.
It's important to support our brave troops right now.
There's real people out here thinking of them and their service to the freedom of this country.

The news reports are so disheartening at times, and then an article like this comes along to give you enough of a patriotic boost to get you through the next day. Thank you for posting.

Don't forget that the media is creating much of the attitude of dissention, not the american public. Oh, welcome to FR!

They do not understand because they do not see evil and if they did they would faint from fear.

They have eyes but do not see. They pretend that peace is possible. It is but there is a cost and it is so obvious that they live in la-la land where all is supposed to be sweet and cooperative.

I know that the above statment is known on FR but it just feels good to say it. Anyone that will not fight for good has to side with evil whether they know it or not and evil uses them and they know it not. fools.......

I was reading a polished propaganda "AP" piece in today's paper; it was loaded with bias, and they were quoting "Powell" with some amazing waffle words. Turns out that the "Powell" they were quoting was a "Charlie Powell" mentioned a few paragraphs earlier.

We need to remember that U.S. Universities are awash with communist sympathizer professors pouring communist hogwash into our kid's brains; communist sympathizers that probably have great influence when recommending former students for "AP" jobs.

Thanks for letting me know who wrote that. It was sent around without an author on it so I had no idea.

Most welcome :-) It seems to happen regularly on the Net that authors get dropped as things are passed... easy enough to fix with something as memorable as this!
