I did have a Small talk to the head of the Iraq vets against the war. I told him that I knew of him and I did not like all that he was doing. He started saying how was against the war and wanted more VA funding and tests done for radiation on the troops. I told him I agree with the VA funding and the testing but when he stands with CODE PINK I lose any respect for him and his lot. I told him when he stands with ones that support the enemy he could go to you know where.
I told him to be out doing this protest at a news conference being done by Gold Star and Blue star families was wrong and it was upsetting some of the families there.
I told him it was disrespectful of them and their ones serving and the ones that have gave it all.
He did say that they would pull back and not be as vocal as the code pinkies and the John Edwards group, I did notice that they were not as vocal during the News conference. So after this it was a high light of my trip besides getting to shake General Pace's hand and thank him for what he has done and to be able to have my wife get to hug the President was the best trip ever.
I am so glad you were able to confront him. As Raoul said these boys are being mentored by the viet nam vets against the war, and I don’t think they understand how damaging what they are doing is to our troop morale.
I wonder if they are even being paid to do this work, perhaps Adam K. is getting a big fat pay check and it just makes finanacial sense to him to be working for the Anti War Commie Machine.
I am so happy that you were able to go and have all of these great experiences, I can’t think of a couple who have worked harder for the cause of freedom!
