(I have no fear of publicly using my name for this. Pass it on. These are my words, and I stand behind them with my name, rank, and convictions. And if it ends up on CNN, with my name, and Bush reads it, even better.)

4. I hope she's okay.
Such a passionate essay. I'm proud of her. However, I feel like Bush or his minions will punish her for her honesty.

9. Very powerful. Emotions I have not been able to express over the last
few days. I think we all knew how incompetent and corrupt this guy was-that's why we worked so hard during the campaign to get him someplace he couldn't do anymore harm. But the anger I feel this week is even more intense than the disappointment I felt after the election.

13. We don't have to keep it high, the body counts will. They have
just started processing the bodies that have been recovered. Wait until the water is drained. The outrage is going to intensify each day after that.

11. "...iiiit's a COURT-MARTIAL!!"
How tragic. The bravest and the most courageous in our armed forces are the ones who will be saddled with dishonorable discharges and locked up in the stockade.

21. She speaks the truth and she is a proud American
and she cares about her fellow citizens in this country that we the people own known to be the United States of America.

She is a TRUE patriot of the highest regard.

She has no fear; she need not hide.

MAY THE FORCE BE WITH HER!

19. If she's for real
She's got steel and I salute her. Her life is going to be hell until the day she's finally disgorged from the service.

27. Unless -
she gets "suicided", or picked off by a "sniper". I put NOTHING past these people. Call me a tinfoil hatter, I don't give a rats ass.

30. Now that's courage...
nothing in this world inspires me like the determination of an individual to speak the truth whatever the cost.

Margaret Mead was right - it's the only thing that has ever changed the world.

34. Only On His Hands?
Hell, he's swimming in blood. All the executions in Texas while he was governor, thousands of innocent Iraqi women, men and children, American soldiers fighting a stupid war, and now those who have needlessly died! This man is death personified.

35. I'm sorry to have to do this
Edited on Mon Sep-05-05 01:04 PM by EarlG
But I have received a personal request from the author of the LiveJournal quoted in the original message of this thread asking us to remove the post due to possible legal (military) ramifications. I have agreed to honor the author's request.

Thank you for understanding,

Earl
DU Admin

Edited to add: the author in question also asked me to include this:

"I didn't want to have to remove my comments, and I hope they don't think poorly of me for backing down. I still believe every word I said, and hopefully, enough people will have read it to add an extra spark to all of this. That's all I ever hoped for from this... to add my voice to the overall outcry."
