Another board I frequent (automotive, not cigar) recently had an interesting debate. The owner posted an apology letter to the troops for Bush forcing them to be in Iraq blah blah pointless blah blah. Well, one of the board members is in Iraq right now. He's a Tactical PSYOP Team Chief(must be a cool job). He really laid into the site owner with words I can only describe as poetic poetry. So, a message to our service men and women, if you'll allow me to get emotional and sappy for a moment.
I extend my deepest and greatest thanks and love to you! Much of the public doesn`t understand that you`re fighting and DIEING for our right to say the bullcrap that the media is spreading like wildfire. People like you make me proud to be American. People like you make me still freaking cry during the Star Spangled Banner. Yes, I`m 23 years old, and every time I hear that song, my eyes well up with tears!
I love all you soldiers with all my heart. You have all the respect I can possibly give. I admire your selflessness and patriotism. Your bravery, your courage. You are all in my prayers, every night, in peace-time or in war. Stationed overseas or currently home.
Sorry for the sudden emotional outburst. The posts on the other board have me both appalled and enraged. I just had to thank the members here, and everywhere for their service. We are ALL in debt to you.
