The point is, this is the mindset of the Democrat party. They are largely anti-military, and incredibly mean-spirited toward those who wear the uniform. They see somebody wearing the uniform and trying to speak their mind as someone who is a threat. Someone to belittle and to assume the worst of. These are the people you support, brad. People who hate our military. And this event was attended by the Democrat party leaders including members of this failed Congress. With their full participation.

The point is the man was dead wrong. He went to cause a scene and succeeded. Get a grip on reality Sea Demon.

You miss the point totally. Right over your head. This is the mindset of these people. This is not an isolated event, nor are anti-military sentiments only displayed at this Kos event. It's also displayed when our illustrious Democrat Majority leader (Harry Reid) declares the war lost, even though we have boots on the ground. Anti-military, mean-spirited, and totally demoralizing. And how about Democrat Senator Dick Durbin comparing our soldiers to Nazi troops? Anti-military, mean-spirited, and demoralizing. But it's OK. That's all off topic anyway. And I think with the low approval ratings this failed Congress is generating, they're on their way out anyway.

Let us not forget John Kerry's comment about being educated or being in Iraq.
Sea Demon is correct about a certain disregard by liberals for those that protect their rights and freedoms. Just because you see the world clearly doesn't mean one is stupid or misinformed.

Sometimes you have to fight for those who are not willing to fight for anything. Does anyone think that open debate for healthcare, immigration or taxes is occuring in Iran, Saudi Arabia, the African continent, Russia, or any number of other nations?

All this may be true but I believe it is true military regulations prohibit demonstrating or protesting while in uniform.

Turn it around. If a soldier were to attend an anti-war rally wearing his uniform would that be ok too?

Standing where I'm standing , with both feet planted firmly on the ground , Seeing what I'm seeing , eyes wide open, Hearing what I'm hearing and reading what I'm reading...

The "Blue Collar" worker is getting a butt load outta this.

First, most "Blue Collar" workers are drunkards and dope smokers...So it stands to reason that they want 'Free Heath Care'

Second, most "Blue Collar" workers claim as many dependents[most illegally]as they can get away with... I have seen upwards of 15 dependents being claimed by a worker who has no family to speak of but ... this is where the but should be big ... BUT... he knows the IRS have bigger fish to fry than him so no worries there

Third, most "Blue Collar" workers don't give a damn about the government as long as they can have a case of beer every night and some grub maybe a bag of pot a week and sex with something once inna while.... I have actually had them tell me they hope we go to a 'Communist/Socialist Government' so all their worries will be over and they will not have to work anymore ....
Here is where the thorn sticks in the side... Most of these ''Blue Collar" workers believe they should be as rich as the people they work for. They believe they should have all the comforts that a man making 100thousand or more a year has and not work for it.
I have fired more white and black "Blue Collar" workers because they believe they should be payed more and do less than my Mexican workers.
So that kinda tells ya where I stand on the 'closing the borders thing'

umm where was I... oh yeah

So this type of BS with warm fuzzy commercials is playing straight to the useless drain on our economy...

You go think what you want to think and believe what you want to believe but...

I'm tellin' ya the next stop for America is a "Fascist Government"
And if you think things are bad now...just wait.

Best keep yer powder dry.

Is this raw census data you're using then?
