A Photo Greeting Card for our Glorious Commander in Chief
Edited on Fri May-27-05 08:53 AM by mopaul


Emily Dieruf from Lexington, Kentucky reacts after finding her husband's dog tag at Camp Pendleton, California May 26, 2005. A memorial service was held in honor of the 420 Soldiers, Sailors, Marines and British Soldiers who lost their lives while serving with the 1st Marine Division in Iraq. Since the U.S.-led invasion in March 2003, at least 1,647 American military personnel have lost their lives in Iraq. REUTERS/Mike Blake

4. Drats! Dubya missed a good chance for a photo op. He could
have comforted her with a head massage. No, wait, he only does that for bald men.

25. He Only
"loves on that war widow", or "gives the huggings" to those that support him. If this woman happened to be a Democrat, his enablers on talk radio and the conservative Internet sites would slam her for being a "socialist, communist, French Surrender Monkeys".

Look what they did to the Tillman family.

6. And yet... Bush can't find the time to make it to...
ONE soldier's funeral. Not one. Can't bear to be reminded of the lives he's destroyed. Too busy shooting photo ops with snowflake babies...

:grr:

7. I feel sad AND angry when I see this
But * would have no emotional response to that photo. None. He'd probably laugh at it.

9. It is obvious..
that Dubya's "culture of life" does not extend to anyone after they pass through the birth canal. Save the Embryos, let the soldiers die.

11. Actually,
It makes me want to take that rifle and slam the butt end up against Dubya's thick skull.
My wife's cousin was one of the first to die in Dubyas made up war.

Edited on Fri May-27-05 10:29 AM by dhinojosa
I need to shut the fuck up....my life is going very well.

No one needs to suffer like Emily Dieruf or any of the other spouses of the 1647 men and women that died in Iraq.

20. Don't they send the belongings to the family anymore?
Why did she have to go see his dogtag there? Shouldn't they have sent it to her, so she could grieve in private?

36. The way this is going...
..there will be neither the money nor the acreage for another Wall.

When are people going to wake the fuck up and say -- nay, scream at the tops of their lungs -- ENOUGH!!!!

That picture sums up Memorial Day 2005.

37. Bush is a many things (Warning: much swearing)
He's an asshole, a fuckstick, a cocksucking motherfucking son-of-a-bitch, a prick, a shithead, a dumbfuck, an arrogant bastard, a pompous pile of shit, a jackass... I'm sure I could think of more but I feel somewhat better now.
