(Guest) Grandma ER
Regular lurker sent this funny via e-mail:
Here's a quote from someone who witnessed a recent interaction
between an elderly woman and an antiwar protester in a Metro station in DC.
"There were protesters on the train platform handing out
pamphlets on the evils of America. I politely declined to take one. An
elderly woman was behind me getting off the escalator and a young (20ish) female protester offered her a pamphlet, which she politely declined.
The young protester put her hand on the old woman's shoulder as a gesture of friendship and in a very soft voice said, 'Ma'am, don't you care about the children of Iraq?'
"The old woman looked up at her and said, 'Honey, my first
husband died in France during World War II, my second husband died in Korea, one of my sons died in Vietnam, a Grandson died in Desert Storm, all so you could have the right to stand here and bad mouth our country. If you touch me again. I'll stick this umbrella up your ass and open it.' "
What we need over there is more war, not less. Reduced expectations!?! How DARE this administration get us IN this predicament, and then not have the cajones to finish the job! More troops are needed, more supplies, more materiel -- or we will suffer a defeat worse than Vietnam.
As I've said before, Republicans so despise government they can't even run a war right. Elect people who respect government, who know how to use it -- and who aren't afraid to do so. You know how to vote. The ass you save might be your own.
What we need in Washington is a right-wing DEMOCRAT hawk! Zell Miller in 2008!

When was the last time that that ladies relatives died to actually protect america? Certainly not Korea or Vietnam. And the Gulf? They died to protect the sacrosanct rights of our corporations, not that we can admit that to ourselves, lest we go insane.
