Wisconsin Army Recruiting Center Vandalized
Vandals scrawled an anti-war message on a Milwaukee Army Recruiting Station Wednesday, the day marking five years since the Iraq war began, WTMJ radio reported.
This is the work of cowards. Communists sympathizers. Actually these bastards probably give communists a bad name, if that is even possible.
Sometimes we tolerate idiots way too much. I think this is one of those times.
Michelle Malkin went and conquered Iraq and came back to tell the story with pictures, audio and video.
democrats Murtha and Moran continue to lie.
Note to self. Refer to this, this and this post from Michelle Malkin for inspiration when you are feeling especially low. Thinking the world is coming to an end because democrats are being especially idiotic and the media is doing it’s part to broadcast their idiocy.
To those who serve our country, I take great pride in saying I am proud of, as well, humbled by, your service.
My God Bless You All.
As is with the MSM ‘if it bleeds, it leads’ otherwise it’s just any other news.
I think that is the point that former Marine and former assistant secretary of defense,
Bing West was making in todays Washington Posts column, Slighting
This Greatest Generation.
Hundreds of gripping stories of valor emerged that would have been publicized
in World War II. Although there are far more heroes than louts in the ranks, stories
of the abuses at Abu Ghraib and now at Fallujah vastly outnumber stories of heroism
and sacrifice.>
Not to take anything away from The Greatest Generation, but the behavior of our
soldiers today will stand scrutiny when compared to the performance of those in any
past war. The focus of the press on abuse is not due to any relaxation in military
discipline or social mores. Why was valor considered front-page news in 1945 and abuse
considered front-page news in 2005?> Now I understand the media has circulation and ratings to be concerned with. For without
those advert dollars their would be no media to even not mention the over-looked news
of the day. Wouldn’t it be cool though if the media could run two front page stories.“5 Marines Killed In Iraq”“Marine Saved Lives Of Others”
We as Americans certainly are not perfect but we do way more good in this world
than we do bad. Those aliens that are looking down on us and reading the Post and
watching the CNN certainly would not get that impression. They could only conclude
we were the worst of the worst.Someone who is a better writer than me could have put together a better example, but
I hope you get the point.All good things to Little Green Footballs for this story.
9/11 was the first time that I was aware of the USNS Mercy and USNS Comfort. The Navy’s equivalent to the Amry’s M.A.S.H. unit except they go floating on the seven seas. USNS Comfort’s latest mission is on to New Orleans to lend support to the aftermath of Katrina.
Well it seems that some less informed civilians are whining about why it is taking so long for the magnificent ship to get to New Orleans. Well, Wizbang has done a bang up job on explaining why here.
Note to self: When wanting to bone up on the USNS Mercy and Comfort, reference this post.
The USNS Mercy and the USNS Comfort are the only two hospital ships in commission. The Mercy is based out of San Diego, and the Comfort is home-ported in Baltimore.
These are huge ships. They are nearly 900 feet long, 95 feet wide, and displace almost 70,000 tons (making them bigger than the biggest battleships ever built, overshadowing the Iowa and the Yamato).
