I am glad to be back, and think I finally got on the right board. I don't like to go on their board, they are just as set in their thinking as we are and it just infuriates me, as I am sure it does them to see our posts. I don't even venture onto their board anymore, because I will surely get in trouble. I ventured into another scary territory place tonight, before the news, O'Reily came on, I never watch him he makes me literally sick. He had this woman on tonight named Delores Kesterson, who had lost a son in Iraq and is so opposed to this war. He did everything but call her a "radical, like Michael Moore", even though her son is dead. She did not budge one inch, and I am so glad I had the TV on and was forced to watch. Whenever he started the usual rhetoric about 911, she did not blink and said Sadaam had nothing to do with it. She loved her son, but did not agree with this war and now her son is dead. He was no buck soldier either. He was co-piloting one of the black-hawk helicopters that collided wherein 5 survived, but he did not, he landed it. I am glad to be back. I can't go on their board, they will never change their mind. She told O'Reily when he asked her if she supported the president or would rather support M. Moore, she straight up said, "this president has thousands dead, possibly a hundred thousand, and he has no conscious of it". It is important to support our troups. When they are called they go, I know, I am military brat - he questioned her about that, she said her son was strictly military and he knew how she felt, but he would go anywhere the president called him. I am so fearful of this war in Iraq. They claim we are getting out and yet there are millions being spent to build new American Army bases there. I support our troops 100%, know they have to go because my father was in VN twice and was spat upon when he returned. I think it is another VN, but I think the American people, right and left, are smarter than that now. Great to be back, hope I am on the right board.
