It certainly is amazing how these somehow never seem to become outdated.

[jdbyers]

where did you find those ?

[Bill]

Interesting question.....

The picture post came in an email from a right wing friend of mine for whom I will make no apologies.

Many years ago, before email, in the days of MSDos, back when the fax machine first came out, the FIRST GULF WAR began.

As memory serves me, the first President Bush was in office and the fax machine was still new. Just about every day, we'd get a fax with this 8 1/2" X 11" media. As I got them, I made copies (thermal paper) and of course, faxed them to just about everyone on my directory send list.

The original copy of the copy made it into a file folder in the one filing cabinet. There they stayed until the computer/scanner came on the market. I scanned these in, cleaned them up, and here you have them. I have a 1" thick file folder filled with these.

And as I vaguely remember history, in the FIRST GULF WAR, it seems that the United Nations did not want the U.S. to continue from Kuwait all the way into Baghdad, so our troops were never given the opportunity to, "finish the job."

That decision, cost the senior President Bush the presidential election. So much for the U.N. and so much for what they know. Just immagine if you will, how different the world would be today.

There is considerable uncertainty as to who REALLY wrote this. I know I did not, so here it is and when the authorship is certain, I'll gladly give due credit.

What's all the fuss?

"Are we fighting a war on terror or aren't we? Was it or was it not started by Islamic people who brought it to our shores on September 11, 2001? Were people from all over the world, mostly Americans, not brutally murdered that day, in downtown Manhattan, across the Potomac from our nation's capitol and in a field in Pennsylvania? Did nearly three thousand men, women and children die a horrible, burning or crushing death that day, or didn't they?

And I'm supposed to care that a copy of the Koran was "desecrated" when an overworked American soldier kicked it or got it wet? Well, I don't. I don't care at all!

I'll start caring when Osama bin Laden turns himself in and repents for incinerating all those innocent people on 9/11.

I'll care about the Koran when the fanatics in the Middle East start caring about the Holy Bible, the mere possession of which is a crime in Saudi Arabia.

I'll care when Abu Musab al-Zarqawi tells the world he is sorry for hacking off Nick Berg's head while Berg screamed through his gurgling, slashed throat.

I'll care when the cowardly so-called "insurgents" in Iraq come out and fight like men instead of disrespecting their own religion by hiding in mosques.

I'll care when the mindless zealots who blow themselves up in search of nirvana care about the innocent children within range of their suicide bombs.

I'll care when the American media stops pretending that their First Amendment liberties are somehow derived from international law instead of the United States Constitution's Bill of Rights.

I'll care when Clinton-appointed judges stop ordering my government to release photos of the abuses at Abu Ghraib, which are sure to set off the Islamic extremists just as Newsweek's lies did a few weeks ago.

In the meantime, when I hear a story about a brave marine roughing up an Iraqi terrorist to obtain information, know this: I don't care.

When I see a fuzzy photo of a pile of naked Iraqi prisoners who have been humiliated in what amounts to a college hazing incident, rest assured that I don't care.

When I see a wounded terrorist get shot in the head when he is told not to move because he might be booby-trapped, you can take it to the bank that I don't care.

When I hear that a prisoner, who was issued a Koran and a prayer mat, and fed "special" food that is paid for by my tax dollars, is complaining that his holy book is being "mishandled," you can absolutely believe in your heart of hearts that I don't care.

And oh, by the way, I've noticed that sometimes it's spelled "Koran" and other times "Quran." Well -- you guessed it -- I don't care!"

Anybody who spends any amount of time talking to me knows that I am pro-Bush, pro-military, and very anti-anybody that speaks ill of the boys and girls fighting overseas or anywhere else for that matter.

Because of that, there is only one thing I have to say in reference to the above posting....

Nope, I really don't see a pattern here to justify profiling, do you?
So, to ensure we Americans never offend anyone, particularly fanatics intent on killing us, airport security screeners will no longer be allowed to profile certain people.

They must conduct random searches of 80-year-old women, little kids, airline pilots with proper identification, secret agents who are members of the President's security detail, 85-year old Congressmen with metal hips, and Medal of Honor winning and former Governor Joe Foss, but leave Muslim Males between the ages 17 and 40 alone lest they be guilty of profiling. Let's show this to as many people as we can so that the Gloria Aldreds and other dunder-headed attorneys along with Federal Justices that want to thwart common sense, feel doubly ashamed of themselves -- if they have any such sense.

As the writer of the award winning story "Forrest Gump" so aptly put it, "Stupid is as stupid does." Come on people wake up!!! Our Country and our troops need our support.

And guess who just bombed London??

Some people are like Slinkies.
They're really good for nothing, But they still bring a smile to your face when you push them down a flight of stairs.

I HOPE I DO NOT HEAR OF ANYONE BREAKING THIS ONE OR SEE IT DELETED

This is a ribbon for soldiers fighting in Iraq. Pass it on to everyone and pray.

SLEEP LAST NIGHT?

Bed a little lumpy...

Toss and turn any...

Wish the heat was higher...

Maybe the a/c wasn't on...

Had to go to the john...

Need a drink of water...

?

?

?

Yes.. It is like that!

Count your blessings, pray for them,

Talk to your Creator

And the next time when...

The other car cuts you off and you must hit the brakes, or you have to park a little further from Walmart than you want to be, or you're served slightly warm food at the restaurant, or you're sitting and cursing the traffic in front of you, or the shower runs out of hot water,

Think of them...
Protecting your freedom!

The proud warriors of Baker Company wanted to do something to pay tribute to our fallen comrades. So since we are part of the only Marine Infantry Battalion left in Iraq the one way that we could think of doing that is by taking a picture of Baker Company saying the way we feel. It would be awesome if you could find a way to share this with our fellow countrymen. I
was wondering if there was any way to get this into your papers to let the world know that "WE HAVE NOT FORGOTTEN" and are proud to serve our country." Semper Fi
1st Sgt. Dave Jobe

The attached photo was forwarded from one of the last U.S. Marine companies in Iraq. They would like to have it passed to as many people as possible, to let the folks back home know that they remember why they're there and that they remember those who've been lost.

Saddam's Cat!

(Looks like Saddam's brother didn't fare as well.....)

[Here4theRush]

Oh the wonders of flash animation...where do you continue to find all of this? You must really be looking. Anyhow, it is all funny so keep it up...

[Bill]

The truth is.....

Most of it is emailed.

The black and white stuff was faxed in from the first gulf war.

Saddam's cat was sent from the tech department of a large bank. It really was quite a surprise.
