Sorry, but it is my position that the U.S. taxpayers ought to pick up
the tab for back-home leave for soldiers risking their lives in a war zone.

Or perhaps Corporate America should pick up the tab directly. After all,
it is the corporations that will make out like bandits from Bush's war.
The vets will return home injured or ill, and be subject to third-class
treatment from the military and the VA.

Soldiers serving in a war zone always get a raw deal, while corporations
make huge profits from the aftermath of war.


Harry, if corporations are making out so well, where did this post come from?



Uh...my comment was directed towards those corporations that are or will
be involved in war profiteering as a result of Bush's dirty little war
in Afghanistan and Iraq.

Translation : NO, not me! It's the government's job! I complain a lot, but
I'm not going to do anything to help. S&#T!!!! N.A.T.O., Harry.

This is due to years of democrats undermining the military. We are losing
lives because of the liberals giving aid and comfort to the enemy. Terrorist
listen to the democrats here and figure if they can just hold out a little
longer, they will win. If the dems would put as much effort into helping
this country as they do bad mouthing it, the terrorist problem would have
been handled years ago.

We don't bad mouth our country, we bad mouth the people running it.
That is called dissent and since you cannot tell the difference between
that and "aid and comfort to the ememy," your opinion is worth nothing.

Secondly, do you not think the Iraqis value their country as much as the
US does? If someone invaded and occupied our country because they
disagreed with our leadership, would we sing and dance in the streets
and worship the occupiers? Hell no, "people" like you would be trying
to pick off every enemy soldier you could from the "media room of your
split level." You'd consider anyone who hailed the conquering troops as
heros traitors.

If the invaders own people were partially against the actions of their
country would it serve as a catalyst in your resolve to fight? **** no.
You'd fight because you don't want to be occupied by a foreign power,
without regard to what anyone thinks.

May you be personally subject to a full body search by John Ashcroft for
dubious reasons having nothing to do with terrorism but based on the
Patriot Act.

Then maybe you'll realize what's worth a fight.

Oh, I'm going to do a lot to help. I'm going to work very hard next year
to defeat Bush and his brown-shirted thugs, and I'm also going to
donate as much money as I can to aid in that effort.

As for paying to get those troops on leave from a battlefield home: the
Bush Administration sent them over there with our dollars; I see no
reason for us to hold back our dollars to get them home for leave. As a
taxpayer, I have no objection to paying for travel home for leave for
soldiers in a combat zone.

Aren't *any* of your righties capable of independent thought? Or are you
all BushBorgs? Bush is a disaster; can't you righties begin to admit it?

I blocked Harry, JPS and jamaice a long time ago so I dont have to read
their hatefull post.


Talk about hate-filled, JBGates spewed some of the most vile crap
anyone's witnessed here (other than Wilbur's hero). He posted about
three times before he was threatening to kill or beat people.

It's probably a good thing he cut us off, he'd have suffered a heart
attack by now.

Oh, I freely admit it! And revel in it! GW is an unmitigated disaster for
you, Nancy Pelosi, Ted Kennedy, Patrick Leahy, Judy Woodruff, Katie Couric,
Barbra Streisand, and many, many others of similar ilk, and this can only be
a wonderfully good thing for our Nation. I am unabashedly ecstatic!

Harry, are you going to sell your boat(s)? It would provide a sizeable donation
and, in your estimation, do a lot to help get the country on the track you
desire - socialism. If you decide to sell, please let me know.

Sure wish you had been around during Vietnam. I could have used some of the
money to help me fund my R&R. Have you considered going to an airport and buying
a soldier a ticket? No?

PS Harry, keep this in mind while doing your bashing:

"[W]e urge you, after consulting with Congress, and consistent with
the U.S. Constitution and laws, to take necessary actions (including,
if appropriate, air and missile strikes on suspect Iraqi sites) to
respond effectively to the threat posed by Iraq's refusal to end its
weapons of mass destruction programs." -- From a letter signed by Joe
Lieberman, Dianne Feinstein, Barbara A. Milulski, Tom Daschle, & John
Kerry among others on October 9, 1998

Did you get out on the water today? It would have done your serenity good.

Does your heart good, doesn't it?

Now, have you been fishing or boating at all this year? Do you own a boat? Do
you think you are engaging in intelligent conversation?

My boats are always "for sale," John, since I'm always looking forward
to the next one.

I was.

Any soldier returning home for leave from the battlefield should have
his ticket paid for by Uncle Sam, courtesy of the US taxpayers. Why
should a soldier have to pay his way home for leave from a war zone?
