Romance and Excitement in Far Off Afghanistan….


You can’t imagine this ditzoid.

In his speech, GWB told troops going to Afghanistan that they should be happy for the experience. That it would be exciting and even romantic and some other blather; he even had the audacity to say that if was a few years younger, he would welcome the opportunity.

Is this guy for real?. He didn’t even want to fly for his country when his time came up. Or did he totally forget about his record of non-service.

I can’t imagine anyone listening to that drivel and not getting nauseous—especially if they are familiar with his military records which by the way was at one time retrievable through the Freedom of Information Act.

We did a couple of articles on what really happened.

The head of one of the prominent Veterans group came on Keith Olbermann the other night and was astonished that he could call the duty in Afghanistan “romantic.”

That would be the last word he would use to describe service in Afghanistan.

Another officer in Afghanistan said that watching people starve and not being given the proper tools to do the job could hardly be called romantic.

The Veterans head said that it just go to show how out of touch he is.

In fact, on my daily back from Dover, I see the large airships bringing the dead back to the National Mortuary at Dover AFB and I have to try hard to concentrate on my driving.

Nearly four thousand Americans have already died and the counts on wounded are widely distorted at this point.

On the Anniversary of the Fifth Year of War, we shall gather in front of the Air Force Base to protest this senseless loss of life.

I wish John McCain would take the time to tour the facility or at least visit the grave of one of our heroes to compensate for the fact that our president hasn’t found the time.
