3. Indeed
Why do I think some of the sheeple will use this to perpetuate the MYTH that W was in Korea. No shiite I've actually heard about that. He was 4 or 5 years old when it started.

2. Well, if He Had Actually Been on the Ground in Vietnam,
he "would not utter with such zest
To young men ardent for some desperate glory
The old lie: "Dulce et decorum est
Pro patria mori."

11. Actually there are tombstones...
...I went and visually verified "what's-his-name's"...You could probably search for it, but why would you waste that much time on someone whose IQ has yet to surpass his shoe size?

This was my first DU2 alert, too! :bounce:

14. ... upon visiting the Korean War Memorial on the 50th anniversary
... of signing the Armistice ... in the midst of a virtually silent moment ... as tourists were cleared out in a 10 block radius and traffic around Independence and Constitution had DC shutdown for hours ... a solemn *W* asked the U.S. Park Ranger ... 'so, did we find oil' ... and, 'where's everybody going, the mess hall's this way' ...

15. I read in TV Guide that "Saving Private Ryan" is the Chimp's favorite
movie. Now, how in HELL can anyone watch that film and NOT be awakened to the true horrors of war? How can anyone continue to think that war is just some Technicolor John Wayne wet dream? This guy is such an asshole!
