Not sure but I think that was a jab against Bush...
...whatever it was let's please not turn this into a political thread.

Good stuff, Viper. Thanks for sharing!

lol, this one is for Bush Sr. but yeah lets not turn this into a politcal thread but I do have something to say. Bush has had the hardest presidency EVER out of all of them, hurricanes, earthquakes, WAR, politics, etc. And look at him, hes getting his butt handed to him for no reason actually. Ya families want their soldiers back home...BUT the thing is, more americans died in 9/11 than all the soldiers that died in Iraq, and that is saying something. And the families really need to lay off, their loved ones are in the military because THEY WANNA DO THEIR JOB AND PROTECT THEIR COUNTRY and not run home after a few months of combat....most americans have forgotten that we are over there to fight against Terrorism and not only Iraq and Afganistan and most of all to get OSAMA or else we gonna have to deal with more tragedy's. But yeah I just wanted to say that

Hmmmm... :roll: :lol: Did you not just follow your own recommendation? :wink:

Please, everyone I understand the feelings that may arise, but don't respond to this thread. It will only turn ugly in a political debate. Viper had good intentions in his first sentance, but clearly forgot the message by the start of typing his second sentance. :wink:
