wether we americans should be ashamed of what american soldiers do? ya. that only applies when american soldiers are doing it.

This might be news to you, but we don’t expect american soldiers to do these things. Dem or GOP.

You are my first trackback and it WORKED!!!!!

Ok, so I changed the title of my site back to Down with Absolutes! so it doesn’t take up so much space.

Ok…I’m thrilled.

Oh I get it, this stuff only counts when Americans are acused of atrcities. You keep believing that.

And the bigger the MSN and the leftists can make it all the better for you. Another way of saying this is whats bad for America is good for the democrats.. Good way to look at it.

Its probably because they don’t have a damn thing to do with one another.

You are not getting off that easy. I never said they should not be punished. The Army will take care of that mess and the people involved will probably spend the next 20 years in Leavenworth.

To clarify what I said, it does NOT rate the kind of press it has been given. The pictures appearred to be more of a sexual cult than it did a prison embarassing yes abuse not hardly. Since Toady Kennedy was the big supporter of this being such an abusive scandal why was there no investigation of a young girl left in the back seat of his automobile to drown ever brought up now that certainly could be called abuse wouldn’t it.

No word mentioned (during the ‘Abu grab’) was ever mentioned about the civilian contractors who were murdered their bodies burnt to a crisp and then hung onto bridges for all the world to see, there was not mention as ABUSE, the beheading of innocent contractors, soldiers and any other poor schmuck they could get their ‘Islamo-fascist hands on was also never mentioned, it was on Al jazeera network but our big scandal was what amounted to a Clinton oval office scandal that took place in some Iraqi prison NOW this is News and you think this has priority above the real abuse done to fellow citizens Oh no this is just because ”America started this thing and it is all our fault” Well the Americans did NOT start this, the Islamo-terrorists did and with the help of G-d we will finish it.

There is a good poster out and it reads over the background of ‘ground zero’ “All I ever needed to know about Islam, I learned on 9/11″ . The sooner you people on the left realize this the better off you will be. Because we the ‘Red States’ are well aware of it.

I have been all over the world, and the biggest thrill I had ever experience was coming back to ‘Conus’ by ship and on the horizon all you can see coming up out of the ocean is a single American flag, you are not close enough to see any land, at sea on a calm day the horizon is about 11 miles, then land begins to appear and at that point the chills start and you realize you are finally home. There is no other country in the world like the United States of America nor was there ever.

You obviously agree with the likes of the left which is fine, freedom is broad and almost all encompassing but don’t forget where you live and who has granted you the freedom to disagree and where that fine line is between disagree and the poiint where you are actually doing damage to your country and our troops who are putting it on the line everyday.

As I said, try rooting for OUR side for a chage.

‘In the end some people wonder if they ever made a difference,.. Marines don’t have that problem.

Nice post.

If “our side” is to not punish the wrongs committed at Abu Ghraib, then I’m afraid I don’t want to be on “our side.”

What was done was done. It was shameful and disgusting. I will continue to root for “our side.” But, when “our side” screws up, I will afford it the criticism it deserves.

We suffered in silence for 30+ years
Scorned and ridiculed, we shed a few tears
Jane Fonda, John Kerry what do you hear ?
The millions of Vets singing out-loud and clear

When all of the votes were finally tallied
Some will asked perplexed, why Kerry never rallied
Pundits and pollsters will be confused
While we Vietnam Vets will be simply amused

For we will know the reason you see ?
It is no mystery for you and me
All the other hurdles Kerry was able to surmount
It was the 58,000 Votes he thought would NOT count.
