Turkey Day

On the
  • Rott
  • , Misha, the Empress, and the gang are mulling over what they're thankful for.

    Here's my list:

    -I'm here in the good ol' USofA, where I can go to church without fear of being killed or beaten within an inch of my life.
    -I came out of the accident I was in in March alive, and able to walk, drive, work, and have children.
    -A wonderful boyfriend that I love to death, and that loves me.
    -A great family that loves me, and (as much as they drive me crazy at times), that I love.
    -The extended family that is my church, especially my pastor's little ones.
    -My online friends, as weird as some of them may be.
    -My best friend Barb, who encouraged me to join the military, and gets me out of the house once in a while.
    -Having a job, and my physical needs being met (food, clothing, shelter).
    -My contemporaries overseas, that are away from their loved ones so I can be able to do those things.
    -Those veterans that have gone before me.
    -Being able to read and write.

    What The Hell Were They Thinking...

    When they
  • enlisted?


  • I know that no one likes the aspect of having to go to war and break things, but if someone goes in only for the college money (which I seriously could care less about-I only went to school at first to make my parents happy), then they should seriously reconsider enlisting.

    What really got me was this:

    "My personal opinion is the only way to stop desertions is to change the climate ... how they are living and doing what they need to do," said Wallace, adding that good officers and more attention from Army leaders could "go a long way to stemming desertions."


    Do you really think that will work, sir?

    If you ask me, what would really work is make an example out of each and every one of these cowards and give them a courts-martial in the field, then execute them.

    It's not just me saying that, it's the punishment in accordance with the Uniform Code of Military Justice.

    UPDATE:
  • Color me surprised
  • .

    Exactly something I should expect from the lamestream media. They're so hell-bent on us losing this war that they'll pull out all the stops to do so.

    Yet people wonder why I don't watch the news on TV or read the paper.

    I Forgot Again


    Yesterday was Veterans Day (it's being observed today), but I think the comic strip below should sum up every American's feelings


    I personally know many veterans: My dad (Army), my grandpa (Air Force), my pastor (Army), my godfather (Navy), my "adopted grandpa" (Marines), my best friend's husband (Marines, Army), another gentleman in my church (Marines), and a colleague (Navy).

    To those men above, and those vets I don't know, I thank you for your service.
