    I'm sure my Dad exaggerated the frequency of PH awards, Top. I'm sure you deserve a couple. He felt the same way you did though and you sound just like him when he talks about Kerry or Clark(don't get him started on Clark...REMF this pogue that). Who did you pound with over there? My pop was in LRP's for 1st CAV 66-67 and 5th Group 69-70 and until he got malaria in 72.

    "hurts our democracy"....

    Last time I checked "OUR" founding documents the fathers were very adamant that we would not have a "democracy"

    Idiots!!

    I totally agree...That will work, if the Dumbs nominate him, we'll have enough ammunition just from his voting record in the Senate.

    You have to understand that by the time Kerry hit 'Nam they gave out purple hearts for scratching your face out on an op. If you went to sick call with a "wound" you were put in for a purple heart. Not to take anything away from purple heart recipients. Both GrandPa's have them from WWII, my Dad spent 2 1/2 tours in 'Nam in SF. Has a box full of them, he's the one that told me the story.

    Thanks for the vets against Kerry link...I wanted some info on his service record. I'm very skeptical of "war heroes" who run for political office. I was always taught that the "heroes" are at Arlington!!! "Rangers lead the way"!!!

    That's why the left hates him so much!!! They can call him names and spread conspiracy theories....but they can never beat him in a debate on any topic. Terrorism, International Monetary Policy, Lesbianism...he has all the facts!!

    Yeah I hate the spending as well. But allot of the spending necessary. Remember to get a surplus Clinton decimated allot of defense, intelligence, etc. That money has to be spent. It's a damned if you do damned if you don't situation. I'm no political strategist but I think the strategy is in part this....Take some of the lefts give away schemes away from them...all to get reelected. Then concentrate on the most important issue in my mind....JUDGES!!!! The second term will be full of vetoes of spending bills..fighting for judges...kicking islamofacist ass!!! Who are you gonna support...Dean, Kerry, Mickey Mouse???? Like I always say..."it is what it is"...helps keep me sane!!

    I agree!! When I was employed in the high tech sector they were very patriotic, very appreciative to be here. I love the "more American jobs going overseas" whining, like it's the Indians fault that they will do work lazy Americans have again screwed up!!!!

    You know I'm sure which it is either. Have they listened to their own revisionist history so long that's all they know. I believe with the young one's that is the case. They have no idea the history of the Nazi party....God knows they couldn't even tell you what a Bolshevik is...

    I love it when the left the "Nazi card"....Even though the populace in our country are educated on a 6th grade level when it comes to history and economics, they know this is a wack job of a writer. They may not have been taught true history in school, but they've all see Schindler's List...they know that isn't happening here.

    I heard Kerry say yesterday on FNS "If I'm then nominee early enough"...you know they don't want to slug it out..but I think Dean will try...just to be an instigator!!

    I think the Republican party should do 2 30 minute infomercials. One explaing tax cuts how the benefit everyone. Explain how when the Demoliars say "Tax cuts for the Rich" They are talking about your boss at the furniture factory and how if we raise taxes on those people NO NEW JOBS!!! or better benefits!!!

    The second should be on the War on Terrorism...how Afghanistan and Iraq are just battles in this war. Explain how kicking Saddam out of power will in the LONG RUN make America safer!!

    The American people need these things explained to them!! The society as a whole is so ignorant to the way things really work. It's such a fast food instant coffee culture (thank you Karl Marx, Jane Fonda, Jimmy Carter, Walter Cronkite, et AL)that people do not understand long term policy...all they see is right now. The leftists have fostered this ignorance and will continue to use it!!

    Check out this quote..."A democracy cannot exist as a permanent form of government. It can only exist until the voters discover that they can vote themselves money from the public treasure. From that moment on the majority always votes for the candidates promising the most money from the public treasury, with the result that a democracy always collapses over loose fiscal policy followed by a dictatorship." All you hear the demoleftist saying is 2 things (it's part of Kerry's core stump speech) "We are going to get OUR democracy back"..."I want to give the American people-(insert new govt give away here). The American people first off believe we live in a Democracy...maybe that should be a third infomercial...Civics 101!!
    We must find away to educate the populace...because unfortunately they can all vote!!!

    Yeah I know the graves you refer to. I was a Land Surveyor in the 90's(I am again, it's great to have a job you love). We did some work up there, for some of that development. I was doing a Topo survey across 120 several miles from the park and came across some entrenchment lines. Alot of people don't realize that the whole region was a battleground, we can't rope it all off.

    Yeah I knew there was alot of development up there already. That would be the concern now..is what is going to go in there. Like I said I do hate the development...but it's already done. Once you get apartments and The Home Depot, the area is just shot out already (IMO). Do you trailer your horses to the park...or do they have facilities there??

    Being a southerner from the area, I hate to see development come to the area...BUT, the federalies can buy the property just like anyone else. We should not allow sentiment to endanger private property rights!!

    This photo and article made me think of something...Why do the leftist have no problem with their Pols going to a church to speak...but when 5 high school kids in Boise, Idaho get together before school to pray they scream about the mythical separation of church and state???

    That's exactly what I want!! Then we move to the south and Edwards wins a few...The three of them will continue to create soundbites for Republican ads and continue to preach their stupid ideology which nobody in America really wants!!
