With the rug pulled out, they will then become a latter day version of the Vietnam Veteran. Those who had the Vietnam experience know exactly what I mean. It is our duty to do our best to make certain that it doesn't happen to our successors. Which, of course, is why this email, one that was provided by a major retired Marine circuit, is forwarded to so many.

What they are also seeing is that a large segment of the public has forgotten who attacked whom on 9/11 and who suffered more casualties that day than were suffered on 7 December 1941. JDL

Great article thanks

Exactly right! Only this time we are watching THEM ...it was Cronkite and Kerry now Koppel and Fonda and Moore and many others...but we are watching them...and we will not let this happen

While there will be those who will try to tear the victory away from our guys...we will not ignore turn our backs upon or discriminate against our returning combat vets as was done after Vietnam...if the very worst happens...we know who will be responsible and it wont be because of the valiant and unselfish efforts of the best group of fighters America has ever assembled

I will not stand for them treating my kids my nieces nephews and grandkids the way Kerry, Cronkite, Fonda did us back then

Even in a Marxist stonghold such as WI...in the rural areas of the state not far away from the influence of the state capital bureaucrats, the Univ, and the urban blight...the 'We Support Our Troops' bumper stickers and American flags are still displayed and there are many..

While the rhetoric of the left is vocal...they will not get away with what they did last time

IMO

We've let the DNC get away with committing a travesty on these fine americans. They overwhelming voted for the war then abandoned any ownership of it. They've been working 24/7 to undermine political support, undercutting the mission and embolding the enemy our troops face over there. IMHO, they've decide to crack a few eggs with the lives of our servicemen to brazenly regain power.

When I see the polls which show that the country is on the wrong track, I wonder if those people feel the way I do. I totally support the President and the War in Iraq but am thoroughly disgusted with the actions of the Democrats. I too believe the country is going in the wrong direction! The media, the DNC and the Hollywood casting couch alumni are the cancer eating away at the country.

During the revolutionary war, we had to force New York to join us (or die by our hands!).

I submit that these people haven't "forgotten" 9/11 - they simply didn't care that much in the first place. I don't believe they represent half the country, but a smaller, very vocal, minority.

We'll always have those who can't deal with reality. They're foolish childlike people, and it's always been our job to protect them anyway. The danger is treating these children as adults - it's been our mistake to try to please them. Like giving a treat to a bratty kid to pacify him or her. That kind of "discipline" doesn't work. Just as it doesn't work with our enemies.

Andropov said, wisely, "Now all we have to do is to keep the Vietnam-era anti-Americanism alive.”

I think sKerry and the X42s have made an art form out of this old KGB saw. Yuri would have been proud of today's state of affairs.

READ THE ORIGINAL ARTICLE and see if it's familiar to you.

Could it be our illustrious left wing conspirators are just useful idiots for OTHERS? BWAHAHAHA. I get dibs on telling 'em!

Yes, it's a National Review article written in February '04, and posted sometime after that.
