I started this thread and at no time did I say an officers life was worth more than an enlisted persons. I have two sons who served, one still serving, as enlisted personnel in the Navy. The war in Afghanistan was a result of 9/11 and was necessary, almost all agree. The Iraq war was based on best known intelligence at the time. Saddam had chemical weapons, he used them on the Kurds, and the CDC considers sarin gas to be a WMD. I am a disabled veteran from Vietnam, a war started by two Democrats that caused the deaths of over 58,000 American military personnel, ten times that of Iraq and Afghanistan together. I send a monthly allotment to the Disabled Veterans of America. What do you do.
I started this post because every other President since WWII would have been at the funeral. Obama is a disgrace to our flag and our military and it has nothing to do with his color.

I never understood morons who think we should shoot to kill, people for crossing a border. Guns like that are made for war, not killing young children .. What ever your political leanings .. Killing people is wrong and you should be ashamed of yourself . you can back track your comments all you like. Your original intent was to shoot the kids crossing the boarder.. Disgusting and so un-american .. Sounds like something a Nazi would do .. and FYI it was Pres Bush helped make this issue worse and it was before Obama took office .. http://www.thedenverchannel.com/decodedc/bush-era-law-makes-it-hard-to-return-unaccompanied-kids-to-central-america

The growing trend in America now is persecution of Christians & taking away their rights to religious freedom by mocking us (as you just did with your TACKY picture) & getting appointed atheist supreme court judges in as many seats as possible so our rights are destroyed. I just can't rationalize why anyone wouldn't agree to do unto others as we would have them do unto us....unless one is so self centered and evil that "doing the right thing" doesn't serve one's self. Obviously, you know not of what you speak, I hope your eyes will be opened to the truth.

You'll notice that the dumb cartoon and the photo of the Speaker of The House with all of the little slogans put up by the fat-head from N.J. doesn't mention a single word about the topic of the discussion, which is, with millions of U.S. Citizens unemployed and unable to find work due to lack of jobs, why does Obama insist on flooding the U.S. with millions more uneducated, un-trained, and in many cases, un-vaccinated and un-healthy people from Mexico, Central and South America?

The answer is very simple; Obama's ultimate goal is to turn the U.S. into another third-world country. And he's already doing a remarkably good job of it, thanks to the help of liberal morons as epitomized by posters "dirtpusher", "mypharo", and "rgrenaderphoto"; (not too sure about "dcampbell52" after his "explanation" for the Great Depression of the late 1920's and early 1930's; ) I really doubt that there many knowledgeable economists who think that it's major cause was "over produced" farm land; I will however tend to agree with him about F.D.R. ( the biggest liberal in U.S. history prior to L.B.J. and Jimmy "PeanutBrain" Carter. )

You can forget about trying to convince libs with facts; libs can't be bothered by "inconvenient facts"; when presented with facts, libs simply change the subject, call you a nasty name, suck their thumbs, and scratch their butts; (speaking of butts, have you ever noticed that a much larger proportion of dimocRATS have huge, over-sized butts than most Conservatives? ) There's a logical explanation for that fact, but I'm too pressed for time just now to get into it.
