11. I know, but I'm mourning my grandfather and father, both of whom
Edited on Fri Nov-11-05 07:15 PM by Gabi Hayes
eventually died as a result of grave wounds they suffered fighting in real wars against fascism.

and, since I'm just like the Hula Boy, and see the whole universe through my lens, my day of mourning becomes one for the nation

4. Tens of thousands wounded
and Bush* worries about his political career. He brought Rove with him? What a disgrace to the honor and integrity of our men and women in uniform.


:patriot:
Happy Veterans Day!
Thank You to all who serve and who have served.

8. And some ten thousand-
or more will never go home. They will have to have some care for the rest of their lives, and many no longer have a home to go to that affords them the care they will need. Already all care for the elderly and disabled has been drastically cut and many care providers are leaving for better jobs at Wallys, Macs, KFC, Taco B. etc. The local bartender will become the best care provider for many who will have nothing better!

5. Good one
My version. "Instead of honoring our veterans, the President chose today to deliver a partisan attack."

6. A desperate despot propped up by our dead children.
How does the man sleep at night.
FOR SHAME !!!
May Bush be cursed and damned
by the spirits of our brave young heros.
