Conservatives place zero value on military service
They believe that wrapping themselves in the flag makes them patriotic. They place value on the likes of bush, who deserted his military unit, snorted cocaine, profited from insider trading, lied to the american people about our reasons to go to war because his handlers clearly knew the american people would not accept the truth, and now says he's a christian because he knows thats a good way to get votes. They trash John Kerry for getting injured at least three times and saw atrocities he disapproved of and wanted to share his disapproval with the american people. This is truly a sad chapter in American History when the likes of george bush is considered by a segment of our population to be an honorable man, all because they choose to be ignorant.

VETERANS: Your service is not appreciated or valued by conservatives. Please share this fact with as many fellow Americans you can, especially fellow veterans.

1. Military service

is for non-white, non-rich, non-connected proles. NOT for them.

2. I sure wish the Veteran Organizations will speak out
But I suspect they are ran by RW shills.

4. I think you will find
alot of votes for Bush amongst the veteran crowd. I only base this on personal observation.

3. I just want to know
How the American public can stand for the nation's leaders saying "Support our Troops" on one hand, and "He wasn't shot up enough, he is a traitor!" on the other. Why isn't there a huge uproar about this? I know the media doesn't cover it THAT much, but even a blurb in a newspaper should be enough for people to march on the White House every weekend. It's absolutely ridiculous.

5. Unless it's Clinton's
or if they can find something to whine about in Kerry's.
