Subject: RE: BS: Should the US troops be thanked?
MRRRZY,
Thank you for not bringing this up in my thread. I understand and respect your opinions. Art nailed it for me - in the 60s we confused our sons with the war and destroyed many of them when they returned from Viet Nam. We also allowed the far right to usurp our flag. It is a symbol of my country NOT the ideals of the far right.
I will not allow either mistake to be repeated.
I fly a flag and want our sons and daughters home. They should never have been sent to Afghanistan or Iraq in the first place.
I have not forgotten the politicians ON BOTH SIDES who made this mess possible so they could get re-elected.
