So, you think the Dems are peacenicks, eh?

Subj: John Glenn (DEMOCRAT) Said This:



I'm sure someone of an opposite political bent may rebut this. However, it
is an interesting take that none of the main stream press seems to have
addressed.



IT MIGHT BE A GOOD IDEA TO KEEP THIS CIRCULATING!





John Glenn (DEMOCRAT) said this ----- It should make us all think a little:



There were 39 combat related killings in Iraq in January. In the fair city
of Detroit there were 35 murders in the month of January. That's just one
American city, about as deadly as the entire war-torn country of Iraq .



When some claim that President Bush shouldn't have started this war, tell
them the following :



FDR (DEMOCRAT) led us into World War II. Germany never attacked us; Japan
did. From 1941-1945, 450,000 lives
were lost ... an average of 112,500 per year.



Truman (DEMOCRAT) finished that war and started one in Korea . North Korea
never attacked us. From 1950-1953, 55,000 lives were lost .. an average of
18,334 per year.



John F. Kennedy (DEMOCRAT) started the Vietnam conflict in 1962. Vietnam
never attacked us.



Johnson (DEMOCRAT) turned Vietnam into a quagmire. From 1965-1975, 58,000
lives were lost ... an average of 5,800 per year.


Clinton (DEMOCRAT) went to war in Bosnia without UN or French consent.
Bosnia never attacked us. He was offered Osama bin Laden's head on a platter
three times by Sudan and did nothing. Osama has attacked us on multiple
occasions..

This one is a fact
that makes me mad as h*ll.

In the years since terrorists attacked us, President Bush has liberated two
countries, crushed the Taliban, crippled al-Qaida, put nuclear inspectors in
Libya, Iran, and, North Korea without firing a shot, and captured a
terrorist who slaughtered 300,000 of his own people. And the Democrats are
complaining about how long the war is taking.

But Wait, There's more.

It took less time to take Iraq than it took Janet Reno (DEMOCRAT) to take
the Branch Davidian compound. That was a 51-day operation



We've been looking for evidence for chemical weapons in
Iraq for less time than it took Hillary Clinton (DEMOCRAT) to find the Rose
law firm billing records.





It took less time for the 3rd Infantry Division and the Marines to destroy
the Medina Republican Guard than it took Ted Kennedy to call the police
after his Oldsmobile sank at Chappaquiddick.
It took less time to take Iraq than it took to count the votes in Florida
!!!
Our
Commander-In-Chief is doing a GREAT JOB! The Military morale is high!
The biased media hopes we are too ignorant to realize the facts.
But Wait ..There's more!

JOHN GLENN (on the Senate floor - January 26, 2004)

Some people still don't understand why military personnel do what they do
for a living. This exchange between Senators John Glenn and Senator Howard
Metzenbaum is worth reading. Not only is it a pretty impressive impromptu
speech, but it's also a good example of one man's explanation of why men and
women in the armed services do what they do for a living.



This IS a typical, though sad, example of what some who have
never served think of the military.

Senator Metzenbaum (speaking to Senator Glenn):
'How can you run for Senate when you've never held a real job?'

Senator Glenn (D-Ohio): 'I served 23 years in the United States Marine
Corps. I served through two wars. I flew 149 missions. My plane was hit by
anti-aircraft fire on 12 different occasions. I was in the space program. It
wasn't my checkbook, Howard; it was my life on the line. It was not a
nine-to-five job, where I took time off to take the daily cash receipts to
the bank. I ask you to go with me, as I went the other day . .. to a
veteran's hospital and
look those men ... with their mangled bodies ... in the eye, and tell THEM
they didn't hold a job!

You go with me to the Space Program at NASA and go, as I have gone, to the
widows and orphans of Ed White, Gus Grissom and Roger Chaffee .. and you
look those kids in the eye and tell them that their DAD'S didn't hold a real
job.


You go with me on Memorial Day and you stand in Arlington National Cemetery
, where I have more friends buried than I'd like to remember, and you watch
those waving flags You stand there, and you think about this nation, and you
have the gall to tell ME that those people didn't have a job?

What about Metzenbaum? For those who don't remember During W.W.II, Howard
Metzenbaum was an attorney representing the Communist Party in the USA .

Now he's a Senator!

If you can
read this, thank a teacher. If you are reading it in English thank a
Veteran.


It might not be a bad idea to keep this circulating. I AM
