Jlallen, you amaze me. How many times have you and other neo-con supporters been all wrapped in the flag. "It's all about our troops." ... "Bush supports our troops." .... "You that criticize the war are harming our troops and demeaning their efforts" Now, when you ask Steve whether he's served and you find out that he was:

"Awarded the Vietnamese Cross of Gallantry with Bronze Star," all you say is:

"You are correct in one respect...Iraq is NO LONGER a direct threat to our nation....."

How about "thank you." How about "I appreciate what you sacrificed for our country." How about anything that would indicate that you have a real respect for what great sacrifice actually is when others are making it FOR ALL OF US.

You're not alone, I notice none of the other "wrapped in the flag" posters utterred a word.

For my part I'd like to thank Steve Dietrich for risking his life and distinguishing himself with valor in the service of our country. Thank you Steve and welcome home. Ed
