...And the 'Whatever, Who Cares' Award for this week...

[WilliamPitt]

goes to a certain former poster here who has decided that cheerleading for eternal war and the inevitable result of same (more body bags...wait, sorry, 'transfer tubes') while moderating some 'other' forum is the best way to 'support the troops.'

Gas face.

12. Yes I saw some of that, at the CU

I didn't know there was a thread here, thanks.

[baldguy]

13. One question -

How do you get to be a moderator on a board after 74 posts? They must be desperate.

[TreasonousBastard]

18. Hey, over at "The Website That Must Not Be Named"...

she's a moderator with just one post.

The one with her "Thank A Vet" message.

Things must be pretty lame over there-- down to 104 members after scrubbing the list.

I see that my membership over there was scrubbed, probably because I haven't logged on in months.

I was Guacamole, if anyone cares.

8. First Zell, now this.

I just hope it's not in the water there, but with the state legislature declaring supreme authority, it seems a possibility.

[Devlzown]

10. I'm cutting out the middle men --

I'm building an altar to Mars. Instead of thanking the veterans when I wake up every morning, I'll just burn a sacrifice for the war god.

[AzDar]

11. I haven't been around as long as y'all, but when I read the"goodbye"

this morning, I was a bit perplexed.....I personally don't recall ever
having read a thread bashing our troops. Hate the War, not the Warriors.. you know?

[Misunderestimator]

14. LOL... Love that award!! Who's hosting the awards show?

Oh, never mind... I found all the adulations on another site.

Great thread title! Says it all.

15. Good riddance to her.

Clearly, her democratic beliefs were not sufficient to prevent her from going over to the fascist side...American Conservative Forum...OMFG. And whether she likes it or not, American soldiers are criminals, as I state in my published LTTE at http://www.suntimes.com/output/letters/cst-edt-vox25a.html . If one reads it critically, one can see it is not an indictment of the troops themselves. Calling them "criminals" is nothing more than a statement of fact, insofar as they have vioated the UCMJ provision about not following illegal orders, not to mention their obligation to defend the Constitution against domestic enemies thereof. Specifically, there is the Constitutional dictum that "all treaties made, or which shall be made, under the authority of the United States, shall be the supreme law of the land," including the treaty creating the UN, of which the US was a charter member. Or how about the Geneva Conventions? Also a treaty obligation the violation of which (Abu Ghraib, anyone?) is consequently both an international and domestic crime.

Clearly, joining the Guard or the Reserves is frequently, if not usually, an economic decision made by impressionable kids whose job opportunities are limited at best. But they chose that course, they chose to swear their oath to protect and defend the Constitution, not the administration. With the softening/elimination of the Posse Comitatus Act, when those same troops are loosed on us here in America who presume to speak against a criminal government, where's "vetwife" gonna be? Cheering on her adored military from the comfort of a Barcalounger while chomping on some Cheetos and flicking the remote would be my guess.

[Career Prole]

16. Aye! n/t

[kentuck]

17. Damn !

I missed all this action. I do recall the poster from very early posts. It seems she has become obsessed with her role as a veteran wife and it has clouded her ability ot reason - even to the detriment of those soldiers still to die in that illegal war. And she thinks that is "supporting our troops"? We shouldn't question why they are there?

[Padraig18]

19. I feel used.

:grr::argh:

[Cooley Hurd]

20. I guess this isn't a vouch for her, is it?

22. sorry. dead wrong.

"cheerleading for eternal war" just wrong.

i can't post private mail. but, your info is incomplete.

and if it's "who cares"?

why ANOTHER post solely to smear? just wrong.

[coreystone]

23. How many hits y'a getting down there in B-Town!

It certainly seems to be a lot "gas" coming out there! Perhaps you should change your diet and support the veterans regardless of their political persuasions. You probably know that the veterans from WWI, WWII, Korea, Viet Nam and all the other vets are getting a really RAW deal from this administration. I voted STRAIGHT Democratic ticket on November 2, 2004! I hope that you don't have any problem with me "cheer leading" for the veterans and their safe and expeditious return home. I, also, hope that you have no problem with supporting any congressperson who would be willing to pass economic bills in support of our veterans who have returned home so bruised and tarnished. Finally, I hope that you are still out on the streets in protest of this "Unconstitutional" war!

Always,

coreystone
