Did anyone see Dateline NBC tonight?
(Not in the text online) father said "You have to trust in the system". It echo's in my head.

quote.......
The family's intense patriotism grew even stronger after 9/11. The Salies steadfastly support the war on terror and the fight in Iraq.

Jim Salie: Duty. Honor. Country.

end quote.....

What a waste :cry:

1. Iraq has nothing to do with patriotism.
It has everything to do with gullibility.

Sad. War's good business, invest your son!

3. I saw the story
I saw it to be some sort of "My son died but I still believe the BS Bush said about the need for war", blah blah blah...

With so many parents of dead kids speaking out against the war this seems to be a counter attack of sorts.
Anyone agree?

6. Caught a glimpse of it and turned it off in a hurry.
Looked like such propaganda, and the correspondent's joyful smile. He must be getting his salary straight from the WH.
