These guys are great! I think this is a really effective way for them to get their point across to anyone who was in the area.

1. As I watched this
I couldn't help thinking what a wonderful country we have here. What other country's war vets would stage a truthful retelling of their experiences. These soldiers ARE our best and brightest hope for the future.

AND, what other country would allow its former soldiers to stage such a series of events on its cities' streets? Amazing this democracy still is despite its deep wounds inflicted on it by the current criminals in the WH.

Cried like a baby all the way through it.

2. I thought it was great, too. Those that can, do, and they're having an
impact.

4. I keep thinking, PTSD.
If you go through this, how the hell can you not have it affect you?

One of these guys is in trouble for his speaking out against the Occupation of Iraq. http://www.couragetoresist.org/x/content/view/313/1/

6. I understand why they are trying to be brought down. Just the
few of them alone seemed to frighten the people of New York.. and did you see that kid crying after the mob demonstration.

I hope they continue. I think it will really bring home to people what happens in Iraq and why they hate our "freedom" so much.
