Veterans, did you serve to allow for illegal spying,
wire tapping, jury tampering, lying, election thievery, clandestine monitoring of citizens, insider trading, money laundering and a host of other republican party activities?

Does "to support and defend the constitution against all enemies" mean giving the republican party carte blanche to run rough shod over said document?

2. If the dead ones could walk
they would get up out of Arlington Cematary and haunt the White House while that little shit is there.

3. Support and defend against all enemies, foreign AND domestic
My brother didn't serve two tours in Viet Nam for this, I can assure you. I know he'll be raling about it when I see him at Christmas.

8. How many of the same people who say "thank a vet for your freedom"
are handing their liberties and freedoms over to King Bush gladly and without reservation?

They died, but was it so freeperscould say "I'd rather have goverment opening my mail and tapping my phone and searching my house and be an iddy bitty bit safer."

Why would anyone give a rats ass for the liberties of someone who throws it away with both hands at the first hint of trouble>

9. Roger that Teammate
Conservatives in America are making the conscientious decision to give away their constitutional liberties because they are either too ignorant or too proud to admit they were wrong in supporting the likes of bush and his team. To take my similar liberties will take a fight of extremely large proportions.

I HOPE WE ARE BEING MONITORED BY KENNY MEHLMAN AND THE REST OF THE CLOSETED ONES IN THE RNC.

10. I was in agency whose mission was partly surpressed by the 70's crackdown
I am not entirely sure what the hell my military service was doing.

11. I am very thankful for our vets and our people in the service who
hate what the misadmin has been doing. I think we're going to need you all during the upcoming civil war. :scared:

12. His usurpation of the freedoms MY service guaranteed piss me off
Oddly enough, there were a few times when I was in where I had to help set up official eavesdropping apparatus (on a military base).

This was overseas, btw.
