1. Oh yeah, but you see, they don't "count"
Only regular soldiers or Marines who are white AND actually fight in combat "count". All them women and minorities and non-combat troops don't "count". They're not "real" servicepeople.

:rofl:

2. Is Rush still on Armed Forces Radio? If so, why?
Hatch Act and all, why was Rush EVER on that station spewing his hate and lies?

5. Guess you haven't heard all those guys were paid...
.... that's not true of course, but the Freepers are convinced those were paid actors. :)

6. What amazes me - if you look at that picture, all the soldiers look different.
Bush ad from 2004


There was a more recent pic of Bsh standing in front of the troops where the same thing happened, but I couldn't find it.
