I landed in Iraq in November 2004 armed with a video camera instead of a weapon...

McCain is a disaster waiting to happen. Where did all the conservatives go? By that I mean the fiscal conservatives. Christian Conservatives are destroying the Republican Party. Abortion, drugs, video game violence. Get out! Stick to controlling GOVERNMENT, leave the PEOPLE alone. Cut my taxes (permanently) and leave my guns alone and we'll all get along just fine, thank you very much. I couldn’t agree more. McCain is a disaster waiting to happen.

I e-mailed yesterday that for a few days I've been getting this strange response when I comment. It puts up an old unrelated comment, some as far back as Sep 07. So I hit refresh and the comment comes up but it's framed by "You may click your name and comment to edit". I click and it says 'save' or 'cancel'. Wassup? Patrick, do you read the e-mail?

Some of us brought up the question, "Was the current USA worth our sacrifice?" Where the media and anti's questioned wheather Vietnam was worth the sacrifice. (We thought they had the questions backwards). After some nay's because of the media coverage of the rising commie factions and media celebraties, we decided our friends and family were still worth the efforts. We then classed the rest of the misguided and wimpy citizens into the "dead weight" catagory. I'm sure most of the readers here have run into such people at work or elsewhere. Nowdays the media pushes the maladies of the celebraties etc.. Still, the dead weight has to come with the country and people we love, and the Lance Corporal's still sacrifice for them.
