sleep last night? (usa only)

I got this in my email the other day, thought I would like to share it with you guys.

SLEEP LAST NIGHT?

Toss and turn any...

Wish the heat was higher...


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


Had to go to the bathroom ...


Need a drink of water...



?

?

?

Scroll down






Yes...



It is like that!



Count your blessings, pray for them,


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

the shower runs out of hot water,


Think of them...

Protecting your freedom!





DO NOT DELETE-PLS PASS ON-Message from Iraq

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

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.

Much as I support what you're trying to say, this is just old e-mail glurge. I don't think it really belongs in this forum.

"USA only"? Last time I checked, a lot of other countries were contributing to the rebuilding/peacekeeping effort. Britons, Australians, Japanese, New Zealanders, countless others besides are all there, risking their lives either by fighting or by their very presence there.

Also, I think most people realise that soldiers have a tough life when they're in the field. It's why they're the only people who can do what they do. The training and dedication that allows them to endure conditions that would be harsh, even intolerable to most other people.

Incidentally, there are probably a lot of Iraqi civilians living in the same conditions right now. A lot of innocent folk lost their homes, families and livelihoods during the war.

Though I do appreciate the purpose of the troops and honor their courage, last time I checked launching an offensive against another sovereign country is not considered "protecting our freedom."

Yeah, I agree. That attack on Germany was sooo out of place, it's unbelievable!

Saddam was completely contained. Hitler most certainly was not.

Contained in his madness and lust to rule the Middle East, you mean?

That may be true, but he in no way was any danger to us.

If he tried anything, the world was watching him and would have taken immediate countermeasures.

Good job, you just predicted the ultimate outcome of every single thread in WE.

Yeah, I guess. The funny thing, though, it's that we never copy and paste from the other threads. Wouldn't that be easier? It could save us typing. Heh...we wil never agree. How about a post on kittens? Everybody likes kittens.

Oh, yeah, I have a great idea! I'll make a topic with something not related to Bush AT ALL. Let's see what happens. Place your bids!

I slept good last night, as well as the night before, thankyouverymuch. :D

I believe that this thread has accomplished all that it's capable of.

I'll close it before things turn bad.
