Don't "Stand Still and Lose" Go get 'em John Kerry. They've left the door wide open. Prepare a statement. Tell it like it is. Send the republicans back under the slimely rock. Tell the truth about the shameful, blaze', flippant treatment of troops in Iraq. tell 'em about GI's waiting in the cold for Thanksgiving dinner while Republican Leaders get their photo op in the mess hall. Tell them about the pathetic thin-walled HumVees republicans sent them into combat with ( how about welding scrap plate onto 'em to save their buddies). Tell them about the special air conditioned trailers that the contract killers from KBR and Haliburton got, while GIs suffered in tattered tents. Tell 'em about the pathetic command and conrol commications that had GI's scrambling for FRS radios to talk with other units. Tell 'em about the body armor so poorly made that it won't stop even spent ak rounds, while Republican Leaders and reporters showed up in the newest versions of armor. Tell 'em about failed vaccination programs, cut veteans benefits, closing of military hospitals. The list goes on and on. You need to talk with some vererans of this war!!!!

1. The gloves are off and Kerry is speaking for the vast majority. |

I told my son yesterday he best keep his grades up so he doesn't end up lugging a pack in Iraq. That's the reality. Someone with no options, no jobs, and no grades....what does he or she have for options?
