I am proud of President George W Bush, he is the leader of the free World. And you know, I am proud that my country is beginning to reject American soldiers who dont want to go Iraq.
President Bush salutes our fallen soldiers.
He gives speeches.
But Barack Obama, he can see those who have fallen in battle.
That's another difference between him and ordinary politicians.
"On this Memorial Day, as our nation honors its unbroken line of fallen heroes -- and I see many of them in the audience here today -- our sense of patriotism is particularly strong."
-Barack Obama, on the campaign trail, in New Mexico State
Well, if there's anyone that needs to pay his respects to fallen troops it's the idiot that sent a great many of them to their needless deaths for the profits of corporate whore's.
It's just too bad JT couldn't give a story about Memorial Day without the story being given through Bush. Obviously most people will ignore the significance of the day and what it represents to American history and just focus on Bush only. Seems kind of a shallow thing for the media to do to the soldiers who served anytime before Bush arrived, but I guess you have to sell papers.
Most people are focusing on current affairs. Whilst I understand what you are saying, all the current fallen troops are because of Bush Co's wars. Wars that were caused and initiated by Bush.
An it's pretty obvious why people are angry about that.
But your anger is known. It's said every day, sometimes multiple times a day. Memorial Day is once a year and the focus is on all of the fallen troops in all of the wars. Thinking that your 1,298,983rd swipe on Bush is more important than that is the point I was trying to make. The anti-Iraq War crowd shouldn't have a free pass on hijacking the day for their agenda, and neither should Bush. And neither should the media.

Sarge, do you have any proof to back that up, or was that just another made up comment to push a point at all costs? I suspect the latter....

Sushi - If I turn back the clock to the time when I was physically able, yes, I'd go to fight in Iraq if ordered.

Sheesh,....what an insult to the troops."
Sushi, so that wouldn't hold true for any other president, past, present, and future?

President George Bush is a great and honourable man.

zurcronium - "President George Bush is a great and honourable man."
So say the terrorists.
I'd wager ordinary Americans would disagree.

RedMeat - Thanks for the Obama gaffe, but we probably won't be seeing that anywhere else. The media will just ignore it.

Everybody knows how I feel about our fractured leader.
Nice post Madverts.
