we need

[lunachic]

while we talk fight and debate oil.
Something we all keep forgetting.
Not once in any post has it been mention.
What about our troops.
With all we have been tring to do.
Can't we even mention them?

As messed up as it is, We are still American's.
And our troops are fighting and die.

Just wanted to bring this up.

Yes..we always will support OUR Troops..in a sense we fight for them too..it is darn hard to pay 4 bux for gas on GI pay..or worry about money for your fammily when you out fighting a war!

My son (23) just got home from Baghdad, he got married right before he left, his wife is still in college, he just took a job with the NSA starting out at 60k, he is worried about money because things have gotten so expensive ( not just fuel) everything! 60k seems like a lot of money to me even now. What is waiting for the other young men and woman that dont have the education or skills to make that kinda money when they get home?

I really understand what you are saying, it's sad and I'm scared like V.N. They will be forgotten, after all when they left we had the ability to work, which has now been taken from us, all of us. But what we can offer them is Life.
we set out on a mission, war because we were attacked, And by all right's gave up and invaded a country that did'nt even want us.
I belive alot of us, Citizens Of The United States Of America want our troops home, and I for one would like to see this included in our protest.
As hard as what they are coming home to, Is at least a chance at living,
Bring the troops Home!
To all Congressman/Senetors/ Future leader of the U.S.
Bring em Home,
Hear us, We have grown, and will grow stronger.

BRING OUR TROOPS HOME ! ! How many of us in this country have been saying that for years now? Has our Government done anything to bring them home, NO? They actually turned around and sent more troops over there. WHAP!!!!!! Slap in the face of the American People. Our Congress, instead of bringing them home like they all promised they were going to do when they got into office, has done nothing but keep on funding the war. This is the same Congress that you are looking for to help change the trucking industry. Wake up and look at the real world we live in. Your Gov. don't give one damn about what you feel or what you want. It's all about what THEY need and what THEY want.
