With all the negative comments about the surge working or not working in Iraq and the childish, and hate filled comments and ads about the Commander of the Troops in Iraq or "progress" in Iraq beng not made I wondered, what would be acceptable by most people as progress? What would have to happen in order for most people to say that things are "better" in Iraq than they have been? Not withstanding a retreat or why we went in
And that is 400 more than you will ever see in the U.S. media. Sad but true ID. Sad but true.. although recently I saw a few almost positive comments by two reporters, but they caught themselves before it could be considered real positive.
I posted my 400TH pro-military video today on my YouTube Channel!! http://www.youtube.com/profile?user=3rdID8487 I have had over 181,000 video views, which is a good start. I am up to over 1000 a day. Maybe just maybe a few of those have a better idea o
I got this in the mail today from a military friend of mine.. had to share.. The Pentagon announced TODAY the formation of a new 500-man elite fighting unit called the United States Redneck Special Forces (USRSF) These boys will be dropped off in Iraq and have been given only the following facts about terrorists : 1. The "season" opened today. 2. There is no bag limit. 3. They taste just like chicken. 4. They don't like beer,
Just a note: According to a recent New York Times/CBS News poll, some 23% of Americans approve of the job Congress is doing , less than a year after Democrats took over the institution. Ironically, more people support Bush than the new Congress, with the President garnering a 26% approval rating. The Democrats have lost almost 10 points since May, 2007, on the Iraq question alone. The Republicans have lost 1% You forgot to mention this little
Gideon, I don't know if you have looked into it or not, but the Government (now everyone don't start with the evil Gov. stuff) has some great IT positions open, and usally haves some new ones opening all the time.

That's fair enough, isn't it? Fair enough - Hooooaahhh!!!
I hope you respond once more, just to explain what it is I've said that's made you so uncomfortable? Surely you don't have a personal problem with honoring non-Christian POW/MIAs with the same reverence accorded to those who embrace Christ and the Bible as their spiritual authority? Absolutly nothing. Its all a big misunderstanding.
LW, I am secure in my knowledge I have done more, seen more, and suffered more than most. Your pathetic attempt at a bait rant will not work, use as many childish comments as you want. I stopped the posting on my blog, post all you want here. I get tired of talking to children who pretent to be reasoning, caring adults. Your words: wimp, pissy, nazi, and of course "Go pout if you like, SW, some 'soldier' you are! (need a hanky?)" is childish, also you have very little knowledge
Do to the fact that people have seen fit to turn this into a debate on my wording or the ceremony itself... not the meaning of the overall subject or idea behind honoring those still missing, I have closed responses to the post, and edited the post so as not to offend anyone who does not like my opinion on something. You are free to pass it on if you wish, or dump it in the trash also. I leave that up to you.
I got it from the Department of Defense offical website for MIA/POW's: http://www.dtic.mil/dpmo/powday/missingman.htm It's called " MISSING MAN TABLE & HONORS CEREMONY " and it was Courtesy of: NATIONAL LEAGUE OF FAMILIES OF AMERICAN PRISONERS AND MISSING IN SOUTHEAST ASIA </SP
Sorry to have bothered you, SW, I guess I should have limited my commentary to "ooh, ahh, how sweet." Ya I would have gone for that..
Lemon is sour, not bitter. The ribbon should be yellow for remembrance, not red. And since this nation was founded on religious freedom, and not all of our POW/MIA's (are) were Christian, I'd skip the Bible altogether and choose a more generic representation of Diety, (all in the name of political correctness, of course.) Sorry t
Many people in the United States have no idea a special day approaches, one that honors many soldiers. One that honors more than 78,000 soldiers. This Friday, September 21st, 2007 is National MIA/POW Memorial Day. A day to honor and remember those that never came home, a day to honor those whose families still ask for answers and closure. There are men still missing in Iraq that have not been found. Four to be exact. Two of those are Pvt. Byr
HUSSEINIYAH, Iraq – A noticeable change has taken place on the streets of Husseiniyah that benefits Soldiers and civilians. Civil service impact projects are changing the city’s appearance, smell and attitude. Formerly an extremely hostile area, Husseiniyah is an ever-changing front, where Soldiers now meet with Iraqi leaders in the street.
This is an interview of Cpt. Tilman about the changes in the Baqubah area of Iraq he has seen and his daily duites: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZgOQ76yDvqQ
KHAN BANI SA¡¯AD, Iraq ¨C The Iraqi children were full of smiles as they competed for the attention of the cavalry scout Soldiers of 1st Platoon, Troop A, 2nd Squadron, 1st Cavalry Regiment, Aug. 29, in Kahn Bani Sa¡¯ad, Iraq. Their laughter rang clear as they traded, passed and inspected the toys the Soldiers handed out to them during a patrol of the village. <IMG style="WIDTH: 453px; HEIGHT: 286px" height=935 alt="" hspace=0 src="http://www.dvidshub.net/media/photos/0709/56131.jpg"

Wow Charles THANK YOU for pointing that out, my error, and MY APPOLOGIES to TW. It would help if I had checked it before I spouted off. I am very sorry TW and thank you Charles for pointing that out. I have corrected it.
