I can barely think about it without head explosions.

Hi there, Miss Waverly. It's good to see you.

:kick:

I still hope they put the billboard up in Ohio, to remind Jean
Schmidt to think before she speaks!

:)

/typin'

maybe they should adopt this idea!

if you link to the site, you will see a table of all the senators
saying who served or not. Here's the link for you to bookmark!

My ear drums hurt from those who pontificate about "staying the
course" who didn't serve and know nothing about what is happening
in Iraq and who care less or they would be involved in leading this
country during wartime.

Speaker of the House Dennis Hastert - avoided the draft, did not serve. Former House Majority Leader Dick Armey - avoided the draft, did not serve. House Majority Leader Tom Delay - avoided the draft, did not serve, House Majority Whip Roy Blunt - did not serve
Senate Majority Leader Bill Frist - did not serve. (An impressive medical resume, but not such a friend to cats in Boston.)
Majority Whip Mitch McConnell, R-KY - did not serve

:shrug:

well, let's hope there's a light at the end of the tunnel as
Nixon used to say!

the Senate Democrats can follow up. Feeling pretty optimistic, actually, especially reflecting on the last five years.

Hmm. I have to get the MAC from Doug and make a "Stay the Course!" graphic.

Move over, DA and Swampy. :loveya:

for conspiring with a contractor on bid rigging, that with
the news about paid propaganda and the realization that there are
secret US prisons taking advantage of our European allies, the heat on the griddle is way up, look forward to your graphic.

off to war -- particularly an illegal war -- and possibly to their death? . . . can one be lower than pond scum? . . . apparently yes . . .

Your very talented. Good site,I put it on my favorites.

I love those folks, I would love a t-shirt with that on it & I love
the idea that they thought up a table to show which senators served,
I wish they did one for the house as well. I just did a right click
on the graphic and copied the properties and pasted on my post, I wanted to use it as a teaser to get folks to go to this fabulous website.

I visited AWOL chickenhawk and signed their guestbook. I passed along the site to a few friends. True war hero's and true chickenhawks.

:hi: :dem: :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

I really like their list of senators who serve, I will use it as
a reality check on the "stay the course" crowd's rhetoric.

to frightenen them here.


Bush Lied. People Died. Media Cheered.

that the 10 marines killed today were an example of the
"sacrifices" GWB talked about, what callousness, no strategy,
the war is headed into the toilet and they are still using
the same old rhetoric.

Well known to be an avid runner today (both physically and Presidentially), Mr. Buchanan reuputedly secured a 4F rating for bad knees.

Tom DeLay has the most revealing excuse: "So many minority youths had volunteered...that there was literally no room for patriotic folks like myself."

Lest you doubt the source of that quote, Wikipedia reports that it was delivered at the 1988 GOP convention. DeLay was apologizing both for himself and for Dan Quayle, who at the time was considered not to have served because he rode out the war in a National Guard unit for sons of influential people. How times have changed.

Those times really have changed.

In 1988, nobody dared point out that a good number of Avenger pilots won posthumous medals for staying with a stricken plane in order to allow their crewmates to bail out. George H. W. Bush received his award for bailing out and leaving his crewmates to die. The circumstances of the incident were considered off-limits and instead the fact that the fellow had served at all was widely admired, whatever the candidate's other flaws.

In 1992, the question of service was important because back then there was concern that a Presidential candidate who had not seen wartime might not understand the solemn import of committing troops to battle.

In 1996, everyone rightly understood that twenty-one days as a combat Lieutenant in Italy was a lifetimes' worth of service, and Bob Dole was lucky to have escaped with permanent disability.

In 2000, Karl Rove successfully stood the concerns of 1992 on their head.

By 2004, the concerns were no longer concerns. They were a reality. By 2004 it had become acceptable to impugn the character of people who had seen combat in order to protect those who hadn't, and that argument was all the more astonishing in light of the fact that the non-combat veteran had in fact started an intractable war with questionable motivation and obvious incompetence.

It would appear that America is smack in the middle of being taught a bloody and expensive lesson, again. If we survive this ordeal, perhaps we can emerge the stronger for it.

I can't believe that we actually have a war run by the clueless.
