Amen Chopperdan that was great!!



I do thank each and everyone that supports our TROOPS. They deserve
nothing but the best from all of us. Our prayers alone means so much for
rhem. They are n a land of the unknown . Fighting not only for there
lives but ours as well. They will never be forgotton.

I don't know if anyone is watching it or not, and depending on the time
zone you are in, but on GAC - Great American Country TV, they are, and
have been doing a tribute to the troops all afternoon, the 173rd
Airborne right now, and others. It is really a nice tribute, talking to
many service personnel today and country and western performers.

Just thought I would let you know. Not sure if it is on where you live.

war is wrong you dont know me zap you are the
biggest WAZZOCK i have encounted in this site.

It is important to also remember the vets who have been crippled !They
are called Disabled and often felt discarded as a broken toy. They have
to come home and live with what is left of thier lives and most often
shunned by thier nieghbors who don't understand. Timmy has changed.Who
wouldn't !It took years for my folks to get used to the new me!I hated
having my own family scared of me!But they finally figured out that I
was just a bit slow to understand them. We have to learn how to work
what is left of our bodies and our emotions. I do not want sympathy! The
folks who need it are coming home before thier time and often leaving
fellows dead and wondering why me?

I don't if I can express properly how much I respect the ppl who have
served this country whether it is in combat or not.
I am extremely grateful for all they have given.
My dad was a marine in Vietnam and I see how it has affected him when he
talks about ppl he served with and the things he saw when there. The
closest I can come to that is books and film and just reading or seeing
that wrenches at my heart for their sacrifice and bravery.

All I can say is thank you so much all of you.

good lord what the hell happened in here, someone puts up a post to say
thanks to our troops and then it turns into some political forum, all
the person said was god bless our troops and then the backlash
started...i pray none of our troos read any of this, they dont need this
crap...if you dont agree then just pass the post on by...please have
some respect

NEVER ,NEVER, NEVER FORGET YOU CAN BECAUSE SOMEONE ELSE FOUGHT FOR THE
RIGHTS & FREEDOMS WE SO EASILY FORGET & TAKE FOR GRANTED! I RESERVE THE
RIGHT TO DISAGREE WITH YOU, BUT I WILL FIGHT TO THE END TO PROTECT YOUR
RIGHT TO DO SO!

Unfortunatly 1964,this is what happens.Right or wrong, this is what we
served for.

Poison, what do you mean? "Unfortunatly 1964,this is what happens.Right
or wrong, this is what we served for."

Can you say more?

Thanks,
Oceans

thanks polson i can say thanks to you your still alive. you do
not need sympathy cause that might make a grown man [The folks who
need it are coming home before their time and often leaving fellows dead
and wondering WHY me?]an its got me a wonderin to polson cheers mate.

JEEEZZZZZZZZ!!!! Txs., I am so very sorry for the blithering **** which
has invaded your very well intentioned post. GOD BLESS OUR AMERICAN
TROOPS!! God bless those who are dead, those who are maimed, those who
served in past wars, those who serve currently, those who served the
military in peacetime only. God bless you all. We don't have to agree
with Bush and all the politics to realize our military family deserves
our gratitude. Bush is not there; our soldiers are and they face
unimagineable horrors daily. Be thankful all you have to sweat here is
rising gas prices and a questionable govt. Our brave soldiers are
America. The heart and soul. What they do, they do out of respect and
love for their country. They aren't there because of the political
propaganda. That is not why they signed up. Their intentions have always
been honorable. Respect them for being in a situation none of us would
hop a plane to join anytime soon. Take your anti-America bull****
elsewhere!!

To my grandafather,and all who served you in WW1 my prayers. To those
who served and lived since then, my hat is off to you!
To those who have lost your partner my prayers. To the broken, call me
and I will try to help you.

To my Father and Grandfather..........

Both HUGE heroes of mine........My grandfather served in WW2 and my
father was a Marine............Both are still alive, thank God....But
God Bless all of our troops out there, defending out
country.............

you are not being attacked you are the attackers .

To each their own opinion. I choose to celebrate the everyday service
people, the sons and daughters.

karizman, you have been asked nicely to leave this thread alone, why
can't you just back out and leave these nice people alone

Kart said "you are not being attacked you are the attackers."



That is why this thread is soooo important to these folks.

Its kind of like when your mother tells everyone not to bring up the
fact that grandpa is a pedehifile and molester right before you all sit
down at the family reunion.

They need you to shut up, and continue eating with a smile on your face
even if grandpa screwed you as a tyke.

very disgusting and pathetic, but needed, in order for the bloodbath to
continue....all in the name of Freedom of course.

Then they say "This war is all about Freedom, but shut up."





What I dont understand is why TexGal keeps saying thank you.??????????

and the chuckles the wine guy, keeps laughing.

but that is Freedom I guess.




I support the troops too. Bring them home ASAP.

Amen to all the wonderful prayer and poems said for our troops.


We pray for the ones who served out country and those serving our
country at the moment. May God bless them all.

Thank God these folks only care about the troops one day a year.

They will put away their flags back in the dusty closet (if they even
put one out in the first place) and they will go about their Walmart,
soap opra, sporto watching, duel 7-11 jobs or golf playing lifestlyes,
all in the name of Freedom.

They wont join this military (you can, even up to age 77, some grandmas
and grandpas are even serving, you can fight up to age 42) and support
the troops, they wont urge Congress for more taxes to pay for better
Humviees or better heath care for returning troops.

They wont scream at Congress to help Vietnam vets or gulf war vets with
heath problems, they will just wave their flags one day a year. And that
is a blessing.






Now me and my friends support the troops every single day, by going to
our local post office and reading the names of the dead soldiers once a
week, by writing letters to Congress to stop using Depleted Uranium and
to give more money to heath needs of victims of Agent Orange in Nam and
DU problems with the first gulf war vets. We go to contiue the awarness
of POWs and MIAs still in other countries as slaves, while others ignore
them.

We give our time and money everyday to support the troops in this
immoral, illegal, insane war and want them home now.



But as you see, my kind of supporting the troops is not valid here
because I wont support the "war machine for Freedom." There is a big
difference.




The great thing about the truth is that it never fails us and grows,
even with ignorant people.

Like when the war first started you couldnt go anywhere without seeing
dozens and dozens and dozens of Flags. Now you see none, even today. My
neighborhood had hundreds of Flags and now there are none.

People are waking up, even on a simple post forum. It does take time,
but just look around and count the Flags............

let it go bear, you have made your point, let these people alone,
