....the kind words and the welcome. I've been around here for a while but started posting ( a few months ago) the political videos that I upload to youtube here FIRST/FRIST!

DU is the bomb and truly comes from a great tradition of organizational politics.
Du has become a must for mobilzing dems/proggys in my opinion and will have a HUGE effect on the 2008 Presidential race.


Hey Now Wildbillin! and see you all here again real soon.... y'hear?

2. "No place to feel safe."
That is the perfect description of what our troops and the Iraqis/Afghanis live with each day; thanks to the Liars.:cry:

And more regs to 'prove' PTSD!:grr::nuke:

What goes around, does come around. I have to keep that faith to stay sane anymore.

Good video, thanks JT.

Welcome to DU!:hi:

8. It is mentioned in the film that
Edited on Sun Jul-08-07 05:51 PM by vickiss
troops were having to 'prove' they witnessed something horrifying enough to have developed PTSD. It was extremely brief. Ties in well with the bs they are claiming the troops that become post-traumatic have a mental illness, Personality Disorder - PD, before their deployment.

Now that makes sense. :crazy:

Says much about their recruiting standards also. Vultures.

Oh, regs., regulations, needed to be requirements. Sorry I was unclear, brain-blip.

That's nothing though.

11. Full text of Odom's commentary
Edited on Sun Jul-08-07 11:22 PM by mcg
from the full text:
"The final step should be to put that president on notice that if ignores this legislative action and tries to extort Congress into providing funds by keeping U.S. forces in peril, impeachment proceeding will proceed in the House of Representatives. Such presidential behavior surely would constitute the "high crime" of squandering the lives of soldiers and Marines for his own personal interest."
-- William E. Odom
