4. "Soldiers" is often construed to mean Army enlisted personnel... |
|
...we need a broader term to include Air service personnel, sailors, marines, coast guards, and the others who commit to putting themselves in harm's way for our safety and freedom.
appreciatively, Bright

And servicemember is, I assume, too long?

3. Very moving, Straight Story. Thanks. And Thanks Especially... |

...for seeing Paul Wellstone's face. I still miss him, so much. And Sheila. He'd be so proud of you.
resolutely, Bright

He's not the only one in the Air Force who feels this way.

The video was not as good as I had hoped, but I wanted something by election day - something that showed that it is the liberals who have been fighting the good fight against oppression and war. From the days of Kennedy and MLK to now, they may be gone - but their work is still here, in us as we keep fighting.

For all the work all the Duers have put into this election.
THANK YOU.
We are in the home stretch.
All we can do is fight.
All we can do is keep fighting.
Good luck on Tuesday!

He can be arrested for this, and in active duty, the penalty would be a LOT WORSE than what that dude in Washington state is facing.

22. Can you get this comment removed? |

"Andy is dead, get a grip. If he didn't insist on Johs Hopkins, the little weasel might still be alive but he took DU for a lot of money 'casue he thought he was too good for regular health care!"
There are others too. Free speech is fine, but since Freepers don't support it, maybe their hateful comments can be removed as well.
