John Edwards to Disgrace Memorial Day

Where are the Democrats supporting the Troops who are currently ALIVE AND FIGHTING? Oh, wait. They're only useful to the Democrats if they're dead. I forgot.

Memorial Day is about honoring the fallen, not about holding antiwar rallies over the graves and memorials of America's war dead.

There are 364 other days on which you should (and will) have your pathetic protests. Memorial Day belongs to the war dead, their families and the country who loves and supported them. We honor their memory not be decrying the wars in which they fought, but by remembering why they fought and died in them.

And if the Democrats can't figure out the "why" of the current war (it certainly ain't oil, lefties), then there is no use explaining it to them. They don't care. Hence, they're not honoring the war dead. They're spitting on heroe's graves as part of a cheap publicity stunt. Sponsored by the Democrats.

These are the folks who refer to America's struggle as a "mistake," a "blunder," a "lie," a "crime," etc. By extension, they're indicting the soldiers who executed that policy as foot soldiers in these "crimes" and "lies." They don't support the Troops, because they don't support the mission for which the Troops fight.

Of course, we shouldn't expect much from a candidate who hired two of the most vile and hate-filled liberal bloggers on the web and didn't even know it until it blew up in his face.

John Edwards is a scumbag of the highest order. Just ask any doctor who tried to practice in North Carolina while that shitheap was a practicing lawyer.

3 If it ain't for the oil as you so eloquently state (and of course not for the control or to stop the flow either - that might raise prices haha) why are we so heavily invested in Iraq and leaving Afghanistan to the Europeans?

4 Why did we go into Afghanistan at all, if it was for all for oil?

Why are gas prices on the rise under this Democrat Congress, who I recall planned to eliminate high gas prices? Why don't we have all the oil you imply that we somehow control?

Thanks for playing, Truther.

5 Let's face it, Memorial Day stopped being about the military and its soldiers to most of the populace decades ago ... war or no war, today, it's just a 3-day weekend.

Which is only to be expected, seeing as how the typical Amercian is neither asked nor required to let the current war impact their life in any way, shape or form.

The US isn't at war; the military is, and they bear the entire brunt of it. And all this talk, talk, talk doesn't change a damn thing.

6 Why don't we have all the oil you imply that we somehow control?

Reserves are currently at their highest point in over 18 months, so we indeed do have ALL THAT OIL. Gas prices are on the rise largely due to refinery maintenance shutdowns, which happens annually., along with increasing spring/summer demand. Could you please, once, speak from a position of enlightenment?

That's why its a volunteer Military, genius. If you want to go, you go. If you don't, you don't. There are people bigger then you and me who will step up, and they don't need your manufactured pity, your condescension or your denigration of their choice.

And following your logic, we should draft people (especially vocal Democrats) for when we go into Darfur. If you're not willing to go stand in the line of fire as a leftist in one of your side's pet "causes," then shut up. Wingnut.

Man, that chickenhawk meme really saves you from having to think. Nice work, Donk!

Which is only to be expected, seeing as how the typical Amercian (sic) is

Then why are you complaining? You just admitted that this doesn't have anything to do with you, and that the military, not the US, is at war. If nothing is affecting you and you are not being asked (after not having having volunteered to do so) to sacrifice anything, why not let the people who volunteered worry about it?

Hey - its your stupid logic, not mine. Just trying to clarify your idiocy so that it makes some kind of coherent or consistent sense.

Reserves are currently at their highest point in over 18 months, so we indeed do have ALL THAT OIL.


And your indisputable proof that its Iraqi oil? Other than that which exists in your imagination?

Gas prices are on the rise largely due to refinery maintenance
shutdowns, which happens annually., along with increasing spring/summer
demand.


So you admit that gas prices have nothing to do with Iraqi oil supplies, hence the war isn't for oil. Thanks for making my point for me. You must be speaking from a position of "unenlightenment."

The US isn't at war; the military is, and they bear the entire brunt of
it. And all this talk, talk, talk doesn't change a damn thing.


Sorry, but the US is at war, and the Troops are fighting for the US. They are not a ragtag group of rebels going over there on their own. After all, the Democrats voted overwhelmingly to send them there. Right? History's a bitch when you're a Democrat, because you can't rewrite your vote.

Hey - I'm just asking difficult questions of you moonbats here. And demanding answers.

8 Who the hell cares. Why is it wrong that we are in the war are you kidding me? This guy is high. On cocaine pot whatever. Killing innocent people thats what you love right. As long as your not late for your clan meeting right?

9 Goog Lt, does it make you feel all patriotic inside to know that so many mercenaries are also there fighting so you and I don't have to and getting paid how many times as much as the troops you support? Why not support the mercs? Doesn't read well on a bumper magnet or what? If the cause is so noble and pivotal to our survival... whatever, just wait until the human food supply is loaded with whatever from wherever and people start dropping like flies and tell me again about who the biggest threat to our way of life is. We are destroying our own empire and both sides are handing out sledgehammers - thanks for the help.

10 Doeas anyone remember what the average cost of a gallon of gas was before Bush? How about the national deficit? Try half on both. Way to back a winner, Republidiots (that's some tricky pronunciation). Get off your side and join the American side.

12 Pathetic. As a OEF and OIF veteran who is struggling to recieve the disability I deserve you liberals are so lucky you are not talking this shit to MY face. All liberals have done is undermine everything the military has done for all of Americas freedoms. Too bad you liberals are too stupid to realize any of this. Your hate for the people who risk their lives for your freedom mean nothing to you. Matter of fact you actually hate them and whine whenever a terrorist dies. Fuck off liberals, eat my shit and let your whole family die of cancer in front of your eyes. That would be my Memorial day wish for you libs. It is true that the liberals do nothing for this war. They are leeches of freedom and guess what all my servicemembers I know agree with me on this. I know about 200 other military guys and gals I still keep in contact with and never heard one ever defend a liberal ideal.

13 Get off your side and join the American side.

You're kidding, right? AQ and the Democrats mouth each other's propaganda as their policy, and that's America's side?

To Democrats and AQ, Bush and America = bad, appeasement and continued terrorism = acceptable next to Bush.

Any questions?

14 Fuck the Democrats, Good Lt. I'm talking about America - you do remember that mental state don't you? Or are you too blinded by ideological rage?

Posted by: Truther Smurf at May 17, 2007 10:57 AM (HGqHt)

15 Good Lt. calls me on using shopworn "chickenhawk" accusations. Not true, I don't call people who advocate for war from behind keyboards while they could actually being doing something about it "chickenhawks" ... I call them by their traditional name: cowards.
