I just realized that I am a complete unAmerican 5 Star A@@hole who dwells on his inner-Frenchman to celebrate a day of rememberance of those who have fallen with boating, bbq'in and imbibing adult beverages. However, as big of a 5-star a@@hole as I am, I am not as big an a-hole as the ignorant fux who wrote and the ditto-head ignorant fux who are forwarding the e-mail titled "
Germany Never Attacked Us". This e-mail basically reminds the reader that Democrats (FDR) got us into WW2, President Truman (Democrat) dropped the bomb on Nagasaki and Hiroshima, President Kennedy (Democrat) got us into Vietnam. (Actually Ike got us involved with Indochina when the French pulled out the Foreign Legion because they were getting bad press due to the amount of former SS troops seeing combat under the Legion's flag, but like I said, ignorant fux wrote this and ignorant fux forward it.) I digress; Johnson (Democrat) added fire to the killing fields of Vietnam. Carter pissed off the middle-East, and Clinton attacked the Balkans, albeit ending genocide on a continent that had seen carnage of this level once before in the 20th Century. However, Republicans hate to fight and only do it with a heavy heart and as a last resort. President Bush is saving the day and the American way of life, as he was drawn into the War of Terror against his will, and has brought Peace to the middle-East and lowered the War to the 'fight against Terror'. Really Claudia? Do you really fux'in believe this as truth? Do you? If you do, by all means, please tell it to the following people.
Remember on Memorial Day. Remember that freedom really isn't free. And that those who never served (President Bush and V.P. Cheney) are more inclinded to send troops to fight for their own and their friend's interest. But you are right Claudia, Germany Never Attacked Us. But the eminent threat of German attack was looming-their allies attacked us, and the Germans did attack our allies.
And now that we know that Democrats are stronger on defense (from your own e-mail) let's elect Democrats to Congress in the mid-terms, and let's put a Democrat back in the White House. Perhaps then we will be able to find a 6'4" Saudi Arabian who actually did attack this country.

what an idiot. are you surprised that republicans blame dems for our wars and then believe they are the party who is strong on defense?
especially when 95% of the members of Congress who served in the military are Democrats. -Kyle
You really put things into perspective with these photos. I watched a special on Arlington Cemetary and was extremely touched. Thank you again Sir. -Mintz
seriously, I was watching Ann Coulter and she said that Bill Clinton bombed the apsirin factory owned by Osama Bin Laden which kept all of the cancer children in Afghanistan from receiving aspirin for their pain. that is why he attacked America.
You’re f’d up in the head JET. You’re political views are skewed to the brink of insanity. You should heed the words “it is better to remain silent and let one think you a fool, than to open your mouth and remove all doubt.”

Last week, while traveling to Chicago on business, I noticed a Marine sergeant traveling with a folded flag, but did not put
two and two together. After we’d boarded our flight, I turned to the sergeant, who’d been invited to sit in First Class (and was
seated across from me), and inquired if he was heading home.
“No,” he responded.
“Heading out?” I asked.
“No. I’m escorting a soldier home.”
“Going to pick him up?”
“No. He is with me right now. He was killed in Iraq . I’m taking him home to his family.”
The realization of what he had been asked to do hit me like a punch to the gut. It was an honor for him. He told me that,
although he didn’t know the soldier, he had delivered the news of his passing to the soldier’s family and felt as if he did know
them after so many conversations in so few days. I turned back to him, extended my hand, and said, “Thank you. Thank you
for doing what you do so my family and I can do what we do.”
Upon landing in Chicago the pilot stopped short of the gate and made the following announcement over the intercom.
“Ladies and gentlemen, I would like to note that we have had the honor of having Sergeant Steeley of the United States Marine Corps join us on this
flight. He is escorting a fallen comrade back home to his family. I ask that you please remain in your seats when we open the forward door [so as to]
allow Sergeant Steeley to deplane and receive his fellow soldier. We will then turn off the seat belt sign.”
Without a sound, all went as requested. I noticed the sergeant saluting the casket as it was brought off the plane, and his action made me realize
that I am proud to be an American. So here’s a public thank-you to our military for doing what you do so we can live the way we do.
