No, we are not doomed, we just need politicians, who walk our streets to feel its heart come alive, not fraternities parties that want to segregate us with a special ticket, so that they call get their five star meal ticket benefits. My ticket was born inside me, and with a divine gift of Free Speech that declares secrecy null and void. That Washington’s closets of Don’t Ask Don’t Tell must account to its people, not to power brokers of green-blooded secret agendas.
We must do our homework, before we commit our troops upon the Truth, not Creative Fiction. That is why it is President Bush’s turn to step up to the plate, for somehow he may the best solution to the insanity that the future may bear if we find no good solution. He avoided the Vietnam War, but this one will draft him to the frontlines for a solution. It is not about being Republican or Democrat, but an American thing that must have all on board for a peaceful solution to the Iraq bloodbath. So blame me if you must, then add the majority of this nation in one way or another. But it is one and one making two multiplied by each state uniting together as a nation than a nation dividing with labels of blame.
I ask all to remember our troops that will be celebrating the holidays away from home. For no matter what party you belong to, I think we can all agree on this one issue, our troops deserve the best wishes from us all. Take a moment to send a Christmas and/or Holiday card (Send an ecard to the troops) to those who shine, the fathers & mothers, sons & daughters, who cannot be home. Let them all know no matter your views on the war, we wish them all back home safe and sound. Let them know we have not, nor ever will forget them, that forever they will be in our hearts.
After reading some comments to this thread I thought it might be nice to add some links for those of you that would like to write to our troop (thank you Voxy)
Any Soldier Inc is a great place to get addy of troops to send them a letter or card.
Another one is A Million Thanks, FYI it is religious based, for those that care about that silly stuff ;)
Operation Band Aid it's to show your support for our wounded soldiers at Landstuhl Regional Medical Center (LRMC), Germany.
One more is Annie's "Write to the Troops" Page it has items such as "Thanks a Soldier a week" & "Send Christmas Mail to Our Troops" Page
Remember this is about SUPPORT, not just STUFF!
A LETTER,from you, your children, the kids at church or school, is THE BEST THING to send. A show of personal support is far better than spending a bunch of money that you don't have.
Or the flag at your front door.
But a letter they hold in their hands,
To them means so much more.
Hope this is a help Voxy

Nice sentiment Mystic. All the best to you and yours
I applaud you for asking for support for our servicemen and women who are doing their jobs bravely and nobly in Iraq and all over the world. While your heart was in it, your brain was not.
You said,
"It is not about being Republican or Democrat, but an American thing that must have all on board for a peaceful solution to the Iraq bloodbath."
Do you honestly think that President Bush wishes for this to go on as a bloodbath? Do you think he wishes for this to be not-peaceful? What is wrong with you? I suppose its easier to place blame instead of understanding the situation there. Get this straight.. no one wants things to be the way they are in Iraq. Republican or Democrat. Instead of complaining about your own government and the people that you and I keep electing to lead it, why not be outraged at the number of so called "good muslims" who sit by and allow this to happen. Why not be outraged at their lack of involvement and how they dont stand up and denounce this violence. Muse, they are right here in our country.. right next door. You better start protesting against those that wish you harm instead of your own countrymen. Wake up and have a Merry Christmas.
Thank you Mr Bunker :o)
anony, what? Where do you see me saying Bush wanted a bloodbath in Iraq? Even the WH has said that Iraq did NOT go as they wanted. Even Bush has said 'The violence in Iraq is horrific'.
No where was I being bias, or placing blame. What I don't get is were you trying to be insulting coyly or did you not realize that you were?
I don't get how with the quote you have used It is not about being Republican or Democrat, but an American thing that must have all on board for a peaceful solution to the Iraq bloodbath. you get that I said Bush wanted a bloodbath in Iraq.
In fact, I'm pretty damn sure Bush did NOT want that. Iraq was underestimated in it's abilities of, toward (whatever you want to call it)violence and/or war. No one fore saw the violence that had/has occured in Iraq.
See I don't understandn how you cold take this posting and try to change it into anything more than what it means.
Bush has even said Things look bad in Iraq, and that is a quote from Bush.
Are you trying to deny that Iraq is a bloodbath ATM? Please explain futher. For I truly would hate to think that you for whatever reason have to try to find something in anything I write as an attack.
I'm truly sorry that I could not get across my sentiments to you in this postig. I wrote this osting in spirit of the season and to say America isnt doomed and that we all need to come together in some way.As this parft of my posting shows But it is one and one making two multiplied by each state uniting together as a nation than a nation dividing with labels of blame. I don't think it is helpful for America to be divided, I see no way that always playing the blame game is productive to this country.
I know that reps & dems alike sign the bill that allows US to go to Iraq, that is wasn't just the reps that allowed it.
I know that some dems are just as out of control as some reps, one side does not have ownership to radical members.
In either party, one can easily find the extreme. So without a bit of facetious meant, this posting was not meant as any type of attack to either side.
I again apologize that I somehow failed to get my mesage across and that somehow (no matter how unintented) this posting came across as an attack of any type.
With that long winded comment I again wish you a Merry Christmas.
Well, ok maybe my opinion is a bit bias to some, but still I did not say in any way, shape or form that Bush wanted a bloodbath.

A soldier in Iraq can't see your ribbon,
Or the flag at your front door.
But a letter they hold in their hands,
To them means so much more.

I do blame Bush! I do blame Cheney! I do blame Rumsfeld! I do blame Rice! I do blame this administration! They are responsible! They knew exactly what would happen in Iraq, they were told by some of the best military generals and advisors. Bush was told by his father DO NOT GO PAST BAGHDAD! Get over your whitewashing protecting the criminal bullshit. Bush is responsible, he will pay! He will pay for the blood shed of our troops and for placing Iraqi citizens in further danger. He will pay for allowing the Saudi's over the borders to esculate the violence. He is a traitor to the American people, and a lover of Saudi Arabia. Don't hand me a plate of bullshit and expect me to eat it for my holiday meal! Do not tell me you support the troops, then, tell me that Bush is not a murderer. I hope you burn in hell anonymous, along with Bush. You sack of lieing shit. You stupid motherfucker that knows nothing about our nation. I hope you rot in the deepest darkest corners of hell you scumbag motherfucking Bush cocksucking worm!
You don't support our troops you fucker, so save it, we are tired of hearing it, you traitor.
Now I should have said this earlier on, but better late than never.
Please, please don't hold back, let's know how you really feel ;o)
~~~~~~Forever A Facetious Pain~~~~~~
