I would like for Obama to make a special effort to Address the Troops about now, Let's not forget.
I would love for Obama to make a special effort to mention the Troops about now. I know the Economy is the number One Issue, and he's being hammered by McLiar and Failin' over the Ayers garbage, but it seems like all those men and women are TOTALLY FORGOTTEN in all this hubbub, and No One seems to care that those people are fighting and Dying, many of them for a "war" they were not instrumental in creating, THEY SERVE US, even though that King Asshats Sent them OFF to DIE.

THEIR Families are undoubtedly suffering a LOT, not only are they screwed on the Economy, but their loved ones are in Harm's Way.

Let's take a Minute to hold them up in our hearts, and let them know they are NOT FORGOTTEN.

We KNOW that McFAIL is going to screw them on top of it, and that for many their only HOPE is for Obama to BRING THEM HOME.

They are being damaged, killed, and under mental duress ALL THE TIME, while McTRASHTROOP thinks NOTHING about using them for Political Haymaking.

Please, let's not let them fall to the wayside in this most Important Election in Generations.

As a Veteran I Salute them, as a Former VA Hospital WORKER, I Worry for them, especially when there's an Election ON and They seem nearly Invisible.

Let's let them KNOW the DEMOCRATS have NOT FORGOTTEN THEM.

1. In fairness Biden has always finished his speeches with god bless our troops.>

Also Biden with a son over there has made it clear they are priority number one. While Palin supporting troops over there is s different story keeping a failed policy war going while she will have a son there too.

2. Yes, there's no way Biden is going to forget
And he's down there in the ditch with The People..

I think that was part of what was breaking his heart at the Veep Debate, thinking about nursing his son through the tragedy, and THEN Potentially sending him to his Death NOW, knowing the Right Wing isn't all that interested in equipping them for Life, give them what they need..

Thanks for posting :)
