Today Is The Anniversary of the Weatherman’s “Days Of Rage”
By Uppity Woman on October 9, 2008 at 4:00 PM in Barack Obama, Bernardine Dohrn, Bill Ayers, Weather Underground
Today is a Big Day for the Weather Underground people. They are probably not working on Obama’s campaign and are taking a break to Remember Fondly.
I wonder if they have a little “celebration” with Ayers and Dohrn. A little reunion maybe, with little bombs as favors.
Excuse me for using Wiki, but I am just so sick of reading about this sociopathic stuff, I hardly can stand to learn any more about them. The more I learn, the sicker these bastages all look to me.
The Days of Rage riots in Chicago were organized by members of the Weathermen (WUO), a militant offshoot of the Students for a Democratic Society. The group planned it for October 8-11, as a “National Action” built around John Jacobs’ slogan, “bring the war home,” although by now the group probably had only about 300 total members nationwide.[1] The National Action grew out of a resolution drafted by Jacobs and introduced at the October 1968 SDS National Council meeting in Boulder, Colorado. The resolution, titled “The Elections Don’t Mean Shit—Vote Where the Power Is—Our Power Is In The Street” and adopted by the council, was prompted by the success of the DNC protests in August 1968 and reflected Jacobs’ strong advocacy of violence as a means of achieving political goals.[2]
As part of the “National Action Staff,” Jacobs was an integral part of the planning for what quickly came to be called “Four Days of Rage.”[1] For Jacobs, the goal of the “Days of Rage” was clear:
“[Weatherman would shove the war down] their dumb, fascist throats and show them, while we were at it, how much better we were than them, both tactically and strategically, as a people. In an all-out civil war over Vietnam and other fascist U.S. imperialism, we were going to bring the war home. ‘Turn the imperialists’ war into a civil war’, in Lenin’s words. And we were going to kick ass.”[3]
According to Bill Ayers:
“The Days of Rage was an attempt to break from the norms of kind of acceptable theater of ‘here are the anti-war people: containable, marginal, predictable, and here’s the little path they’re going to march down, and here’s where they can make their little statement.’ We wanted to say, “No, what we’re going to do is whatever we had to do to stop the violence in Vietnam.’”[4]
To help start the “all-out civil war”, Bill Ayers and others bombed a statue commemorating the policemen killed in the 1886 Haymarket Riot on the evening of October 6. The blast broke nearly 100 windows and scattered pieces of the statue onto the Kennedy Expressway below.[5]
I feel like I need a shower. You can read the rest here.
What I want to know is how in the hell is Barack Obama going to do anything to fix the Stock Market falling below 9000
McCain has a record!
McCain is the man to lead this country back from the brink!
I’m affraid Mr. Obama has promised way to much and he is in way over his head.
Wake up - Obama is a complete dead end and McCain has experience reforming and holding to account scumbags.
So true. Isn’t this the very reason Barry and pals want to clutch the golden rung of power? That is, they won’t hold Raines, Johnson, Rezko, and countless others ACCOUNTABLE????
If Obama is a Manchurian candidate, that is why he is so “all over the place” with his policy statements. I am sure a true socialist/anarchist/whatever doesn’t want the stock market to rebound. A person with the socialist philosophy would WANT a collapse of capitalism. Socialism and Capitalism are opposing economic systems—As, for instand, Communism and Democracy are opposing governmental systems.
Diana L C
thanks for your great exposition about Socialists wanting the downfall of Capitalism….this is now being done before our eyes. an economic coup to paralyze and terrorize the populace to swarm into the waiting net.
Communism creeping over Democracy to entrench itself into the “needs” of the people.
This is how Democracy falls.
Nobama!!
Obama has a record of saying one thing and doing the opposite, one such example is the FISA bill. Another example is his campaign promise through the primaries of universal child health care, he voted against it in the U.S. Senate. Obama has used megaphone techniques to amplify every problem in the American economy. This problem with the economy now is one that has been simmering for two years now. A simple look back at the problems Countrywide suffered two years ago illuminates this. What or who was the catalyst that brought everything to a boil in the past few weeks. The cooking of the books is not new, and anyone who believes it is is blind. The democrats were awfully quick to jump all over this and blame the president. Yet they fight acknowledging any part in the build up of the mortgage problems. Who was it that thought that it would be a good idea to give mortgages based on welfare payments? The problem is thatthe law now denies allowing people to stay on welfare for more than two years in most cases. Where did they think the money was going to come from after that?
They knew better, yet they pushed it through anyway. Now people who have been responsible for years will have to pick up the tab for those who never should have been encouraged to buy a house without also being encouraged to learn how to budget and plan.
Why fix the market. They are currently making sure the government owns it and all the banks. Then we can all be comrades.
McCain’s new ad on the obama/ayers connection…awesome

and these lunatics want to take over this country. lock an load
Bill Ayers…just another guy who lives in my neighborhood.
Where the hell does he live? Elm Street?
Farakhan
Wright
Ayers
Khaladi
Auchi
Rezko
Dohrn
On and On
Just too damn many scary people who just happen to live in his neighborhood.
Birds of a feather, flock together.
Certainly isn’t the neighborhood that this guy was talking about was it?
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rDxGuat7HUI
someone should cordon off, as in put an electrical fence, around that neighborhood. this citizen can only hope that the CIA or FBI or whomever has been keeping a careful eye on the whole lot of them over the years. i would be most grateful if my tax dollars were being spent on such operations.
They got Farrakhan’s troops of fruit or something like that patrolling the neighborhood. Guess that is to protect them from the masses who live outside in their blighted neighborhood thanks to Obama and his bud Rezko. The same masses that give him so much adoration. He wouldn’t spit on them if they were burning.
From George Mason University’s History News Network
Ayers and Dohrn were there at the founding of the Weather Underground. At a 1969 “War Council” that helped launch the organization, Dohrn raised three fingers in a “fork salute” to Charles Manson, whom she proposed as a revolutionary inspiration. She went on to joke about Manson’s victims and dubbed them the “Tate Eight” after Sharon Tate, the pregnant actress whom members of the Manson tribe stabbed in the womb with a fork. “Dig it,” said Dohrn at the time. “First they killed those pigs, then they ate dinner in the same room with them, they even shoved a fork into a victim’s stomach! Wild!”
Words cannot say the loathing I feel towards the Ayers and Michelle and Barack Obama and the DNC.
The Obama’s feel so highly for Alisky that Michelle even quoted him in her DNC speech. She seemed to give Barack the credit for it…..It was from Rules for Radicals, but was not the one below.
Rules for Radicals opens with a quote about Lucifer, written by Saul Alinsky: “Lest we forget at least an over-the-shoulder acknowledgment to the very first radical: from all our legends, mythology, and history (and who is to know where mythology leaves off and history begins — or which is which), the first radical known to man who rebelled against the establishment and did it so effectively that he at least won his own kingdom — Lucifer.”
You are known by the company you keep. The Ayers and Saul and now Lucifer join the cast of the damned….
That’s what I said about Obama’s Grandfather introducing Frank Marshall Davis to his Grandson to be his Mentor. Why does his Grandfather even know this Communist and Sexual Pervert? This happened when Obama returned from spending his formative years in Muslim Indonesia. Obama’s family and Frank Davis were birds of a feather, has anyone looked to see if the FBI has a File on Obama’s Grandparents and his Mother?
World investment in America is leaving the country because they are anticipating a socialist government.
EXACTLY. Obama has already thrown up his “Berlin Wall” between “us and them”.
I keep saying that the markets will keep tanking as long as big business here and abroad feels that Obama may become POTUS.
The media hounds are the only fools that keep pushing this man as something great for this country, if he wins we are going to be in one hell of a mess, we will see harder times than we ever had before.
I agree. It may come back later but right now they are doing just that. And even thought the Dems, Bush, are selling the plan, Obama and Biden are adding more rights and protections for each and every American.
It seems to me that Dems/Bush, McCain too, but moreover Obama and Biden are bend down on protecting Americans from reality. It is simple, the government will protect us from capitalism.
Rage. That’s what it was about, power. They wanted to show they were tougher, smarter, and better prepared to kill than the government they claimed they hated.
Misdirected bunch of dweebs, all dressed up and playing cowboys and indians. And this is the group, should Obama win, who will have direct access to the White House. They were poseurs then and they’re poseurs now. They live the life of the successful, well-rewarded citizens and claim the the country’s screwed. I bet they give less per year in charity to any of these so-called groups they bleed over, than most of us. I’ll just betcha.
From Drudge -
Obama purchases half hour of primetime on CBS, also in talks with FOX, NBC… DEVELOPING…
Yeah, we can look forward to many more prime time TV spots for the Dear Leader if he makes it to the White House. Day after day of him bleating on and on about hope and change - like Soviet Presidents of old, we will be subject to indoctrination - let’s face it, he already controls the MSM. We know his vile poison has spread throughout schools and colleges - he is the scariest politician of my lifetime. How can ordinary Americans even contmeplate voting for this fraud?
Or the MSM controls HIM.
After all, they chose and funnelled Bush into the job, too–twice.
He’s “The Anointed One”….The One who is EASILY CONTROLLED, apparently.
so what? I’ll never tune him in . . . .literally nor figuratively!
In a socialistic government, the media is controlled, so you must not be planning on turning into any channel–they’ll all be his.
McCain should demand equal time. No one should be able to buy 1/2 hour of air time without an equal response being allowed to the opponent.
Public campaign finance should be mandatory for all presidential candidates. No one should spend the obscene amounts of money This One has to get himself elected president. There’s something just plain unAmerican and wrong with that!
The Internets will be under control of the telecoms that gave so much money to The One and will report back on activities. Not looking good .
Nobama!!
WASTE OF MONEY!!!
Thats game 6 of the world series….good luck.
yes, he is buying it for 29oct-that date ring a bell? 29oct1929 hmmmmm….coincidence? I think not!
Practise our freedom of choice, turn off the television when he comes on. Don’t you love the internet!

barack obama is definitely NOT a Lightworker.
he is a pretender and a trickster.
by their fruits you will know them.
but only if you know where and how to look.
the self proclaimed “zen master”Mark Morford is deeply delusional to declare obama a lightworker.
true Lightworkers are deeply anonymous and profoundly humble.
this is truth.
Coincidental??

“NPR
January 30, 2006 · One of the largest and most vocal campus protest groups of the 1960s — the Students for a Democratic Society, or SDS — is forming again after a long hiatus. Small chapters are opening up at universities across the country, and this summer members will join together for the first SDS convention in more than three decades. Some of the original members of the group are also getting involved again.”
Old Weathermen are talking about movies (Ayres) and publishing books (Wilkerson-in whose basement bombs were made).

From the Winter 2003 issue of Social Policy:
Case Study: Chicago-The Barack Obama Campaign
And if you want to see a article, including a photo of him at the acorn office:
http://smallwhispers.com/?p=660
Snip:
Obama started building the base years before. For instance, ACORN noticed him when he was organizing on the far south side of the city with the Developing Communities Project. He was a very good organizer. When he returned from law school, we asked him to help us with a lawsuit to challenge the state of Illinois’ refusal to abide by the National Voting Rights Act, also known as motor voter. Allied only with the state of Mississippi, Illinois had been refusing to allow mass-based voter registration according to the new law. Obama took the case, known as ACORN vs. Edgar (the name of the Republican governor at the time) and we won. Obama then went on to run a voter registration project with Project VOTE in 1992 that made it possible for Carol Moseley Braun to win the Senate that year. Project VOTE delivered 50,000 newly registered voters in that campaign (ACORN delivered about 5000 of them).
Since then, we have invited Obama to our leadership training sessions to run the session on power every year, and, as a result, many of our newly developing leaders got to know him before he ever ran for office. Thus, it was natural for many of us to be active volunteers in his first campaign for State Senate and then his failed bid for U.S. Congress in 1996. By the time he ran for U.S. Senate, we were old friends. And along about early March, we started to see that the African-American community had made its move: when Sen. Obama’s name was mentioned at our Southside Summit meeting with 700 people in attendance from three southside communities, the crowd went crazy. With about a week to go before the election, it was very clear how the African-American community would vote. But would they vote in high enough numbers?
It seemed to us that what Obama needed in the March primary was what we always work to deliver anyway: increased turnout in our ACORN communities. ACORN is active on the south and west sides of Chicago, in the south suburbs and on the east side of Springfield, the state capital. Most of the turf where we organize in is African American, with a growing Latino presence in Chicago’s Little Village and the suburbs.
ACORN members were involved in three activities around the primary:
1) Block captains were identified, as early as the summer before the March primary, and provided with lists of registered and unregistered voters and voter registration materials. We attended trainings and accountability meetings to receive our materials and make plans to get the people registered. Then we came back to report on our progress. We also hired voter registrars in the final three weeks to work the supermarkets in our communities. By the February 17 voter registration deadline for the primary, ACORN had registered 12,984 new voters. This was an organizational best for us. (As of this writing, we have added over 27,000 new voters).
2) Block captains then went to work to turn out the vote. They were all volunteers until the last few days, when we received funding to pay some of our block captains in some precincts of the 24th ward (North Lawndale) and the 15th ward (West Englewood) to get out the vote on the last Saturday before the election and on election day.
3) In some precincts in the 15th ward, we were able to hire canvassers to work on voter turnout for a full two weeks before the election. Each canvasser worked two to three precincts during that time.
The results of this activity were very interesting, and mirror what Professor Donald Green of Yale University has found about voter turnout work: where we were able to run a crew of paid and supervised canvassers for two weeks before the election, we did very well. In those targeted ACORN precincts in the 15th ward, voter turnout improved by an average of 50% over the previous year’s city election (the only other election since the redistricting). Citywide turnout increased by only 14% over the same election.
The way the canvassers approached each door was important. Instead of a speech about a candidate they engaged the potential voter in a conversation about the issues, relating their issues to the importance of voting, and moving them to a commitment to vote in the primary. In addition ACORN leaders were making the rounds talking to their neighbors about the election. I am proud to report that the combination of a paid canvass and my volunteer work was especially successful in turning out the vote in my two precincts (34 and 51). In those precincts we boosted turnout by 82% (precinct 34) and 90% (precinct 51) over the previous year’s turnout. ACORN leader Denise Dixon again paired with an effective canvasser, increased turnout in her precinct by 131%. The best performing precincts were the ones with a canvasser and a leader who worked at least Election Day and the Saturday before. There is a noticeable difference between these precincts and those that only had a paid canvasser in it, who wasn’t a local community leader.
We’re not ready to prove anything yet with our data, because we have not run a scientific test, but we believe Green’s results showing that door-to-door field work for two weeks before an election yields significant results, and we believe that there is a correlation with strong local leaders assisting the paid canvassing in winning even more dramatic increases.
The 24th ward has traditionally had higher voter turnout than in the 15th. The work leading up to the election in the 24th Ward was done by leaders who volunteered their time. Some were paid for two half days of door knocking, election day and the Saturday before. Turnout increased in ACORN precincts in the 24th ward at a rate higher than the city average, but not at the rate at which it increased in the 15th. Overall turnout was still higher in our 24th ward precincts than our 15th ward precincts, but the rate of increase was not as dramatic.
None of this is rocket science, but it is important. Good door-knocking by community residents for even two half days can impact turnout. Good door-knocking by paid and supervised canvassers for two weeks can have dramatic impact. And a combination of the two, especially with experienced community leaders working with the paid canvassers, can make a huge difference.
As it turned out, Obama won the primary handily, pulling white wards as well as African American. But no one knew that that would be the case. In each election we must act as if our work is critical for our communities. That is what we did in the primary, and we learned something in the process.

Fox News::::: more bad news for Barack…A report of PLO ties next!!!
I think SNL should do a skit of the People In Barack Obama’s Neighborhood….
he could open the door time after time to a person of ill repute, and then slam it on them…it would be very funny…he would be dressed in Mr Rodgers’s funny sweater, and pretend not to know the people in his neighborhood…
That would be hilarious ford. SNL would never do anything to make fun of Obama, though.
Actually, Sesame Street has a song called Who are the People in My Neighborhood? I can see the parade of characters in Barack’s hood.
OT, remember Eddie Murphy and Mr. Robinson’s Neighborhood?
The Obamaniacs are nuts. I just walked through my living room, where my husband is watching Chris Meadows. He and other minions were blubbering about how the country is turning brown so we should elect Obama!! McCain is trying to turn back the clock, Tweety insisted. I’m sure that the gun-totin’, Bible-clingin’ crowd wants to hear that! These crazies are just having a cozy little conversation with each other, not even realizing that the vast majority of Americans are not thrilled with what they’re saying! And the shaky economy is going to make people elect a lying fool people know next to nothing about? What–they want a communist revolution or something?
Why cant all of these money brains that come on TV and give advise about stocks and the economy face the dam public and tell them the truth that big business is holding back because of this Presidential race.
Big business is holding off where to put their money until they see result that will help them, no business is going to sink dollars in a market to throw it away, they are going to want to ensure that their investments will reap rewards.
At the moment all polls say Obama will win, big business may not like the prospect of that choice to them that can be risky, economics is closely linked to politics and if anyone wants to doubt that bid business does not pay attention to who is going to lead or not well they are fooling themselves.
If big business is not comfortable with a Obama’s presidency and that is how it looks as it may end up well we can all buckle out belts and wait for the hard times because it is coming just and night follows day.
You are correct, what nut would put money in the market, if the Odingobama is going to be taxing it after high risk??
You’d have to be delusional. .. Like Obama lovers.
True. Specially when politicians are granting new rights to the American citizens all over the place.

What a shock, Obama and Michelle hate Jews, I bet they had no idea that Khalidi had those views, anyone that votes for Obama is a moron, nuff said, stop being brainwashed by this evil bastard
I meant to add to my previous post that the newsletter puts forth some interesting ideas related to the Obama “movement”
I just love how CNN and MsNBC and Politico state that Obama is ahead in polls but when this Ayers thing comes up he has to purchase 30 minute ad on NBC, ABC, and CBS to reintroduce himself.
Ah, we know who you and your wife is Obama and it is not the person we need to lead the U.S. out of the economic mess that Dodd, Frank, and other CBC members named Waters, Clay, Meeks to try and give ACORN members homes who could not afford it.
You guys are going down like Young Joc states and we all know it. Get your popcorn ready.
PUMA 2008!
man, i would love to see the RNC drop the whitey tape that night!
Just tell your friends and neighbors to turn off the TV and not listen. You can buy the time but you can’t make us give a hoot about what you have to say!
I don’t think Joe or Jane Six=pack are going to make a special point to tune in. I know what I’m talking about, I’ve been turning off politicians I can’t stand on TV and radio for years! Happy day!
Anyone notice that as soon as the polls had Obama over 50%, the stock market plunge to new lows. WHen the race was almost tie, the stock market was doing fine. It seems whenever the MSM show polls of Obama winning, the stock market dips. I think many people are taking their money out of the market because they know an Obama presidency means higher capital gains. The market is fearful of an Obama presidency with a democrat control congress. The stock market will do better when John McCain poll ratings get better.
Whenever there is a republican control congress the stock market does well. WHenever there is a democratic control congress the stock market tanks. EVen if the president is democrat and the congress is republican control, the stock market does well. Ever since the DEMS took over congress in 2006, the stock market has been somewhat up and down.
I think investors are taking their money out of the market because they know Obama will increase the capital gains tax. The fear of a democrat president and demcorat congress is scaring investors.
Are we better off than we were 2 years ago?
Oh, maybe it was you!
Someone, in another thread, mentioned this idea, and I just saw this article:
After the Bailout: Is Obama Depressing the Market?
http://www.usnews.com/blogs/capital-commerce/2008/10/7/after-the-bailout-is-obama-depressing-the-market.html#read_more
How about the idea of George Soros and his Internationalist friends trying to make the markets drop to aid Obama, he does own the Democratic Party. You should view that Video spoof of C-Span from SNL, it had barny frank, nancy, Bush, soros, etc. When they showed Soros they put a little banner up, it said George Soros, hedge fund operator, Owner-Democratic Party
While the common wisdom says that a down economic trend helps the challenger, a steep down turn like this one, with dire economic consequences are not predictable in the same way.
My personal opinion is that this economic downturn may ultimately go against Obama. It was clear to me today that Obama and Biden were beginning to look quite foolish with their speeches and their rhetoric. Promising rights and promising rosy futures they don’t even know how to even construct them.
The worse part is that as they mock and make jokes of McCain’s proposal to recover the economy, they do much more harm, and that may ultimately also work against them in Nov. 4.
We’ll see.
Actually, this item is worth a read — it’s not just about ‘BO’s ratings are up, stock market is down’ — its about how the US got out of the 1970s economic mess with Reagan, and how BO would go the exact opposite and therefore wrong way with high taxes, etc.
After the 1929 crash, Herbert Hoover raised taxes on the rich and businesses. That is what caused the Great Depression. The rich were afraid to invest their money because of the risk to reward facter.
His policy hurt the middle class and the poor, because they didn’t have money, but the rich survived, no problems.

Barack Obama and the Strategy of Manufactured Crisis
By James Simpson
http://www.americanthinker.com/2008/09/barack_obama_and_the_strategy.html
Yes, I read that article and it makes perfect sense in regards to what is going on right now. We are in the midst of a socialist (with a Maoist bent) take over of our country.
These types of people are obviously deranged and lost in their psychopathic fantasies. They want Democracy and are against war so they go to the streets and act like a bunch of heathens with violence? Now, THAT makes alot of sense. Why not have a peaceful protest? Nothing good ever comes out of doing something bad, evil, wrong….it just doesn’t.
I’ve mentioned it before, wodiej, they’re more like cult followers. Not sure which blog site I saw it on, maybe it’s even here on NQ somewhere, but there is a youtube showing the similarities between Jim Jones’ followers and Obama’s followers. They get really scary and … obsessive when it comes to Obama. He can do no wrong and won’t listen.
“Reintroduce himself”
You know McCain needs to come out before he goes on the air and just start showing every video of Wright, the indoctrination of school children, Ayers and Dohrn,Pfleger, Farrakhan, ACORN raids, etc over and over and don’t forget Mechelle’s ‘proud of America’ speech and BO’s own words about our military “bombing and killing civilians.”
Enough is enough–not one reputable mainstream news organization left and then people still can’t see the writing on the wall. We’re all going to be underground if this crazy man gets in the WH. When people are afraid to put McCain signs in their yards in the city because of BO’s thugs that’s pretty bad, he’s divided classes and races just what he and Mechelle have wanted for a long time–to spread their own hatred and anger.
I wonder why the economic crisis is such a surprise to so many. I don’t have any savings at all and it is easy for me to see that this is just what Socialists want to happen. They want us to have doom and gloom so we will need them. And it is working! People are following blindly into the abyss. I am so concerned for my grandchildren’s future. I really never thought I would see the day that Americans would fall for so many lies.
I don’t get why anyone thinks swing voters are going to watch a half hour political ad. Only the bots will be watching. More poor judgement from Obama.
Yep!
Only the thoroughly converted will tune in to that mess for an half-hour. And they’re a smaller group as it is.
The rest of Obama’s supporters are reluctantly voting for him only because he’s a Democrat (for now). They were never complete Obots. So they won’t be tuning in for that garbage.
Obama knows that he’s losing even more support among undecideds, Independents and some Hillary supporters who have crossed over to the dark side for the sake of “the party.” Ayers, ACORN, his ties to the Socialist group - they’re all derailing the “Obama train.” It’s gonna crash soon. Thus this last-ditch effort to further brainwash as many American voters as possible.
A quick comment on all the definitions, socialism, capitalism, how Obama fits or doesn’t fit, all that confusion.
The problem is trying to fit the man perfectly into a previous, strict definition that’s been around for a long time and, therefore, has to hold a lot of acorns (yes, I slipped that in there) that are not all the same.
What we have today, in Obama and others, is a strand of socialist thinker, a re-distributor of wealth (double the cap tax on people who actually invest capital and grow the economy to give cash to people who don’t actually pay taxes in the first place and call it a “tax reduction” / whew, speaking of torturing a definition), but with an important distinction:
They want to do it with other people’s money.
Take a look at the candidates. The relatively modest Palin family gives more to charity than Joe Biden. The McCain’s giving dwarfs the Obamas’.
I don’t know if socialists don’t believe in giving or only in having the rich give and leave them alone.
But that’s what’s going on. He wants to tax whomever and whatever he can, including a hidden tax on small business through his Health Care plan, putting many of them on the brink (ask businesses operating under the Massachusetts plan — which is essentially what BHO’s plan is) and give the money to people he believes should have it.
Sometimes it’s better to not try to label the behavior but, rather, just describe it.
Screw those American terrorists!
OT: My sister and I went to Taco Del Mar today to drop off some flyers I had printed for them. There were two gentlemen dressed in their uniforms standing in line. My sister and I both thanked them for their service and I paid for their lunch. When they got their order, they asked if they could sit with us. They were both so wonderful - both returning from Afghanistan in February. One had also been in Iraq. He had 5 children, aged 8, 6, 4, 2, and 1!! We talked about how the MSM sucks and how they never report any of the good news about the war. They told us about how they built schools and a really nice hospital, where Afghans were coming in to get glasses for the first time and healthcare they had never received before. It was a wonderful experience but disheartening too as NO ONE ELSE CAME UP TO THEM AND THANKED THEM. Grrrr. Well, at least we did our part.
Please … if you ever see one of our fine men or women in the military, thank them for their service!!!
