Let's say Thanks to Our Troops

"Rich" wrote in message ... "Jan Drew" wrote in message . .. If you go to the web site http://www.letssaythanks.com/ you can pick out a Thank You card design & a message (or write your own). Xerox will print it and it will be sent to a member of our military serving overseas. You can't pick out who gets it, but it will go to some member of the armed services. You don't have to give any personal info. Just your name (first name only works & is probably more personal) & your hometown. It's FREE and it only takes a second. What a wonderful idea!! Having been in the military in Vietnam, when troups were NOT much supported and honored, I DO honor and respect our troups in Iraq and Afghanistan. However, having learned what I learned in the late sixties, I have no respect whatsoever for the government administration that sent them there. I know, from experience, that the soldiers, marines, and airmen there are NOT fighting for George W. Bush and his policies, but for their comrades in arms. Survival of themselves and their comrades is the mission, period. The war in Iraq is an illegal and immoral war, much like the one in which I served. So yes, support our troups. But do not get all warm and fuzzy about what they are doing there. Relevancy to this post? I won't expect you to do anything to thank our troops. What a shame; Jan didn't understand what she was reading again, but nevertheless felt constrained to vomit some more bile. Ta for the thoughtful post, Rich. I sure do pity those who find you in the ER. Cold hearted as you are! --Rich |
