Things that make you think a little:
There were 39 combat related killings inIraqin January.
In the fair city ofDetroitthere were 35 murders in the
month of January.That's just one American city,
about as deadly as! the entire war-torn country ofIraq.
When some claim that President Bush shouldn't
have started this war, state the following:
a.FDRled us into World War II.
b.Germanynever attacked us;Japandid.
>From 1941-1945, 450,000 lives were lost ...
an average of 112,500 per year.
c.Trumanfinished that war and started one inKorea.
North Koreanever attacked us.
>From 1950-1953, 55,000 lives were lost ..
an average of 18,334 per year.
d. John F. Kennedy started theVietnamconflict in 1962.
Vietnamnever attacked us.
e. Johnson turnedVietnaminto a quagmire.
>From 1965-1975, 58,000 lives were lost ..
an average of 5,800 per year.
f.Clintonwent to war inBosniawithout UN or French consent.
Bosnianever attacked us.
He was offered Osama bin Laden's head on a platter three
times bySudanand did nothing. Osama has attacked us on
multiple occasions.
g. In the years since terrorists attacked us, President Bush
has liberated two countries, crushed the Taliban, crippled
al-Qaida, put nuclear inspectors inLibya,Iran, and North
Koreawithout firing a shot, and captured a terrorist who
slaughtered 300,000 of his own people.
The Democrats are complaining
about how long the war is taking.
But..
It took less time to takeIraqthan it took Janet Reno
to take the Branch Davidian compound.
That was a 51-day operation.
We've been looking for evidence for chemical weapons
inIraqfor less time than it took Hillary Clinton to find
the Rose Law Firm billing records.
It took less time for the 3rd Infantry Division and the
Marines to destroy the Medina Republican Guard
than it took Ted Kennedy to call the police after his
Oldsmobile sank at Chappaquiddick
It took less time to takeIraqthan it took
to count the votes inFlorida!!!!
Our Commander-In-Chief is doing aGREAT JOB!
The Military morale is high!
The biased media hopes we are too ignorant
to realize the facts.
But Wait.There's more!

Some people still don't understand why military personnel
do what they do for a living. This exchange between
Senators John Glenn and Senator Howard Metzenbaum
is worth reading. Not only is it a pretty impressive
impromptu speech, but it's also a good example of one
man's explanation of why men and women in the armed
services do what they do for a living.
ThisISa typical, though sad, example of what
some who have never served think of the military.
Senator Metzenbaum (speaking to Senator Glenn):
"How can you run for Senate
when you've never held a real job?"
Senator Glenn (D-Ohio):
"I served 23 years in the United States Marine Corps.
I served through two wars. I flew 149 missions.
My plane was hit by anti-aircraft fire on 12 different
occasions.I was in the space program. It wasn't my
checkbook, Howard,it was my life on the line. It was
not a nine-to-five job, where I took my tie off to take the
daily cash receipts to the bank."
"I ask you to go with me ... as I went the other day...
to a veterans'hospital and look those men ...
with their mangled bodies in the eye, and tellTHEM
they didn't hold a job!
You go with me to the Space Program at NASA and go,
as I have gone, to the widows andorphans
of Ed White, Gus Grissom,and Roger Chaffee...
and you look those kids in the eye and tell them
that their DADS didn't hold a job.
You go with me on Memorial Day,and you stand in
ArlingtonNationalCemetery, where I have more friends
buried than I'd like to remember, and you watch
those waving flags
You stand there, and you think about this nation,
and you tell ME that those people didn't have a job?
What about you?"
For those who don't remember ..
During W.W.II, Howard Metzenbaum was an attorney
representing the Communist Party in theUSA.
Now he's a Senator!
If you can read this, thank a teacher.
If you are reading it in English thank a Veteran.
It might not be a bad idea to keep this circulating.
FEEDBACK appreciated

A. FDR Wanted to remain neutral for it didnt involve us. Germans attacked American Merchant ships in 1939. therefore Elevating the situation
B.Japan attacked us at Pearl Harbor. On Dec. 8 The US Declared war on Japan. GEMANY Declared War on US, Being Japan's Ally.
C. Korea was first led by the newly created UN. It was technically not a war, it was a Policing Action. the North Koreans invaded South. the UN stepped in, Backed by the Americans, pushed them almost entirely into China. the Korean "War" was stared because the N. Koreans Crossed the 38th. at this time the Americans feared Communism, Beacause it was a threat to the Democracy.
D. We were supporting the Anti Communist Regime. when the VC's invaded the Americans stepped in, not wanting to further the spread of Communism.
E. the Americans Morale was lowered Greatly by JFK's Assasination, and LBJ was thrusted into an uneasy situation. He never knew as much about the conflicts as JFK did.
F.Clinton made some serious mistakes in some Situations. Bosnia was a threat, so Clinton Dealt with it.
G. Bush didnt send the Inspectors in. The UN Did. all bush did was send in troops. If I remember correctly, Bush was a Draft Dodger??

Why is this right wing crap being posted on a modding site?
The saudi's own Bush and hhis father, they do whatever the saudis tell them to.
I dont think America turning a blind eye to Nazism for the majority of the second world war is something to be proud of.....
Plus why keep starting all these conflicts if you dont win any of them?
