How dare you! You go preaching that soldiers are not supporting Bush and this is good news, then say Lorne is a traitor because he makes the Kerry comment? Another stupid flip flopping post. Is that you John posting?

As.. Here is something you can do...in honor of Halloween why don't you conduct a " scary kerry mask " contest or picture as long as it's scary. you get to choose the winner and get to award the winner a medal...something that can be thrown away later...you know something that the person who received this award would place no value in. Good idea or what? :-)

Does this kind of thing bother you at all..I mean in your own Country? Government Schools And Muslims Will Brainwash Your Kids By Dave Gibson (10/22/04) americandaily.com In observance of Ramadan, the Muslim holy month will become part of the curriculum for many U.S. public school students. In Herndon, Va., a Muslim teacher named Ayeefa Syeed will be teaching third through fifth grade children in that city about Ramadan and the tenets of the Muslim religion (well, at least the popular tenets). Over the last few years, this practice has been quietly spreading into this nation's government schools system. In 1997, the U.S. based Council on Islamic Education produced a 'lesson plan' entitled "Muslim Holidays" for U.S. children. The manual is full of politically-correct information about Islam as well as tips on how teachers can circumvent regulations against religion. Since that time, over 4,000 U.S. teachers have used it in their classrooms with the blessing of their respective school officials. Prayer rugs are distributed, Muslim prayers are recited, and basically a 'happy face' is put on the most dangerous and violent religion the world has ever known. Government teachers and administrators who are overwhelmingly liberal, no doubt take great pleasure in turning our public schools into American hadrassas. This more than anything shows the ACLU for what they are...Another hypocritical, hate-America group. Can you imagine the fallout if 4,000 teachers brought Christian bibles or even a picture of Jesus into their classrooms? We have been heard over and over again that religion has no place in our classrooms. Our government no longer allows the Lord's Prayer to be said at the start of the school day. However, our useless and ever-encroaching federal government now encourages the teachings of Allah. The same education system that has done everything within it's power to drive children away from Christian beliefs, is now brainwashing your children with those of Islam. Teachers who would think nothing of pushing for the expulsion of a student who wore a cross to class, are now teaching American children the preferred religion of our enemies. This nation's public education system was once second to none. U.S. Public school teachers once helped to turn out young adults who could read and write with proficiency and could easily become self-sufficient. I suppose that since they are no longer capable of such feats, they will turn them into terrorists! If my child came home and told me that he was going to study Islam and kneel on prayer rugs in school...He would spend the next day at home and a lawsuit would be promptly dropped upon the principal's desk. Why aren't these parents organizing? Why aren't they suing the pants off of the Herndon, Va. School District? Unfortunately, many parents simply do not care. We are living in an age when children are being raised by strangers. They grow up in day-care centers and after-school programs. They spend more time in front of their Playstations than they do with their own parents. This is a nation seemingly consumed with pleasuring itself. More often than not, American children grow up in broken homes and develop the warped values of their parents. In short, these kids are prime candidates for indoctrination. If we do not stand up to the liberal left and take back this nation, as well as our children...we are doomed. We cannot allow future generations of Americans to be duped by the flowery teachings of Islam. Something is dangerously wrong with a nation which believes that the Ten Commandments should be ripped from the walls of every public institution, while pushing the religion of our enemy upon our impressionable children. No Islam...Know Peace!

An Open Letter to Senator John Kerry and a Statement of Solidarity with our Swift Boat Brothers-in-Arms from Special Forces Vietnam Veterans "The undersigned Special Forces Vietnam Veterans support our Swift Boat brothers-in-arms and believe that John Kerry is unfit to be our Commander-in-Chief or to lead our nation as President. The Kerry presidential campaign has raised the significance of this deeply-felt and long-standing issue. While many, if not a majority, of the signatories of this request are Republicans and Bush supporters, many are not. Those who are Democrats have been effectively disenfranchised by Kerry’s candidacy. For most of us the question of his fitness to serve as Commander-in-Chief, or in any other office of honor and high public responsibility, was settled permanently in the negative thirty-three years ago. He slandered and dishonored all Vietnam Veterans in false and exaggerated testimony before the U.S. Senate Foreign Relations Committee. By throwing away the symbols of his honors, he insulted all veterans of all wars by debasing the milestones of their valor...." forete.com
