And let's give it up for those brave souls who did and do fight in our armed services. Regardless of the justifiability of any given war, those American soldiers are heroes - every last one of them. - KerouacCat, on 10/10/2007, -0/+4I disagree with you Pappy. Your patriotism and fervor for the military is leading you to make wide generalizations about 'heroics.' Every US soldier who served in Serbia and who killed Serbs is a MURDERER not a 'hero.' That was yet another unjustifiable war crime and every US bomber pilot who dropped bombs on those Christian Serbs is a stinking bastard, a coward and a MURDERER. Same with Iraq; that war was engineered by the globalists, same as Serbia, and every US soldier who is there killing Iraqis is also a MURDERER. (Same with Vietnam.) Just because you have on a US military uniform, and your neighbors back home sent you off with a parade and the flag is flapping behind you, means absolutely nothing. If you travel to nations where people have never threatened you and you particpate in slaughtering them, you are a MURDERER! Just because some cowardly globalists used you to further their war crimes still makes you a murderer. But the globalists know that Americans aren't very smart and they also know that you can attract a lot of good ole boys to do plenty of killing, simply by concocting a few deceptions, airing them endlessly on tv, and then have a nitwit president talk about 'bringing democracy.' And deep down, I think that a lot of those good ole boys enjoy killing people--until their conscience catches up with them in a few years--and then they realize what they did was a sin.

Let us never let one viewpoint and only one viewpoint prevail in this country. Let us all remember that dissent must always be allowed and that each man must be be goverened by his own conscience - for that is essential in maintaining a nation of free men.

Did Dan Rather use forged documents to try to prove it? Yes.
That about sums it up. - hoeckf, on 10/10/2007, -1/+1Not just leftists, all of us tried to avoid the war, just like people tried to avoid wars before. I was lucky, the draft changed to lottery, my number was 304, I had student deferment and the year I would be eligible, only went to 95.
This is old news, means nothing to the current events. - inactive, on 10/10/2007, -2/+2What if political power WAS invoked to keep GWB fr/combat? F/anyone else who survived the 60s, you will remember vividly how any excuse/ruse/lie/reason was used by many—in fact, it was the order of the Leftist day. I admit I was one of `em. Of course, directly opposite of Viet Nam was Emmaus, so there were some minor changes in store f/this flaming liberal....
