Maybe 63 years ago - we stopped cold a dark age -
We did that - as a nation. We did that. And we paid in blood.

And now - we have - this situation.

What is the difference?? Tell me.

A long time ago - our fathers joined hands to defeat a dark tide - and we have to do that now.

There is no difference.

God bless the United States - we made a lot of mistakes - I guess.

But we saved the world once too - where does the judgement of history come down here?

This is your time - our time - to do the right thing.

Do not even blink in carrying out that which your fathers paid for in blood.

Joe

2. the evil
Edited on Thu Sep-13-07 09:56 PM by warrior1
was waiting. Waiting to be born. While the fathers paved the entrance into our country, into our government and way of life. It's all we have ever known and didn't really know. We've always had an unease with no name. Now it's it the light. Not afraid. Spewing its filth.

3. You know - all those years ago - my dad was just another dumb -
kid - tooo - but he could fly a fighter plane - all those years ago.

My dear god - you know what those kids did? -

They fought people trained - all there lives - to fight some war - and they kicked the living crap out of them.

I am so proud of those guys - I knew them - and so sad we have not lived up to that which they fought for.

No more -

We are our fathers children - that is what we are.

Joe

4. It's the same evil, even some of the same people, or their descendants.
We just weren't told that they didn't all live in Germany and Japan...

7. "There is no difference" ??????????????????????
Superficiality masquerading as deep thought.

The problem is so different as to be unrecognizable, compared to WWII.
