I'm ashamed of you people
 

Just so there are no further examples of people dishonoring our war dead by
saying "Thank you Vets" and other such ignorant crap, take the time to read
the material contained in the following links:

There is a Memorial Day holiday and then there's a Veteran's Day Holiday.
Don't mix them up. You make yourselves look like fool more interested
in boozing it up on every holiday rather than somebody who gives a rats
ass about either veterans or the honored war dead.

You wrote this in a public forum:
" wrote choked out
between blow jobs this big quid of conjealed cum in message ", and have the
gall to to claim to be ashamed of others?
Go figure.

And when the wind in the tree-tops roared,
The soldier asked from the deep dark grave:
"Did the banner flutter then?"
"Not so, my hero," the wind replied.
"The fight is done, but the banner won,
Thy comrades of old have borne it hence,
Have borne it in triumph hence."
Then the soldier spake from the deep dark grave:
"I am content."



Then he heareth the lovers laughing pass,
and the soldier asks once mo
"Are these not the voices of them that love,
That love--and remember me?"
"Not so, my hero," the lovers say,
"We are those that remember not;
For the spring has come and the earth has smiled,
And the dead must be forgot."
Then the soldier spake from the deep dark grave:
"I am content."


A poem quoted by Oliver Wendell Holmes, Jr. in a Memorial Day speech at
Harvard in 1895 entitled "The Soldier's Faith". (Theodore Roosevelt
admired that 1895 speech so much that as President he nominated Holmes
for the US Supreme Court.) Holmes in the 1895 speech spoke of "part of
the soldier's faith: Having known great things, to be content with
silence." He cited this poem as "a little song sung by a warlike people
on the Danube, which seemed to me fit for a soldier's last word...a
song of the sword in its scabbard, a song of oblivion and peace. A
Soldier has been buried on the battlefield."
