Continuous war in a more general sense since 1941.

Perpetual war for perpetual profit.

And did we just lose yet another holiday to MIC?

Isn't Armed Forces Day/ 4th of July/ Memorial Day/ Flag Day/ Veterans' Day ( What am I leaving out?) enough?

Guess not.

How 'bout just plain ole Dead Foreigners Day?


Bring back Santa.... sez I.

Half the TV's are on fox-nonsense network, and I just about threw up when I saw the "Fox Store". Holy sweet Jesus. That state is one backward swamp land. Bad enough they have the Houston Airport named after Bush Sr. I cringe every time I fly in and out of that airport.

And you are right....the military has fox-nonsense playing all over the place. It's no wonder a lot of the military, active and retired, support the repuKKKes. Many of them are just as indoctrinated with that garbage as the common public on the outside. It's sad. It really is.
