I called Miss Ginny's Washington DC office
yesterday. I talked to her idiot assistant and read him the riot act and
told him to tell his birdbrained boss that our fallen heros already are at home.
Our military cemetaries in France are
sovereign United States property, just the same as all of our embassies.
The French citizens maintain our veteran's
cemetaries better than we do here in our own country. The French have the
highest respect for those soldiers. Our French
veteran's cemetaries are beautifully landscaped and
magnificently manicured, the grass looks as though it was combed by hand.
The French schoolchildren are assigned individual graves and every year on June
6th they place flowers on every single grave and there are literally tens of
thousands of them.
All of us have relatives buried overseas if
you go back far enough. Are we going dig up all of our ancestors also? Leave it
to a sleazy politician to use our dead war heros in some cheap attempt to garner
publicity. Some Americans think we should
adopt an isolationist policy toward the rest of the world. It's funny how much
the rest of the world agrees with them.
Has anyone suggested a bill to ship back the
Statue of Liberty? Or sell back the former Louisiana Territory? Or stop teaching
French in schools? Or boycotting Blockbuster until they alter titles like: The
French Connection?
Ginny Brown-Waite is a freshman, or junior,
representative in Congress and she is already a member of the House
Veterans Committee. She is culpable for the state of our VA hospitals and the
way our government treats our veterans with intentional indifference.
The fact that we have homeless veterans in the United States of
America is a national scandal and disgrace. Maybe France should pass a bill to bring home
the Statue of Liberty, and then help hand the US back to the British Empire. One
thing that people tend to miss in this whole debate is that
France, remembers better than many, and certainly better than America, what
war means and understands the devastation of losing an entire generation of
young men; knows the pain of burying their dead and rebuilding their towns;
knows what it's like to have an enemy who wants nothing better than to see you
fall. Maybe this is why France is loath to pave a path to war; not because
they want to "take a stand" against America or have any personal vendetta
against anyone, but because they better than anyone know what war means, and
want to prevent it if at all possible.
I don't know why some people can't grasp the
concept that some one can actually hold two independent ideas at the same
time about something. Yes, it's possible for the French to respect America for
its assistance in WWII and at the same time oppose the invasion of Iraq. Just
as, if a person had any intelligence whatsoever, they should be able
to respect Frances' assistance to America in the Revolutionary War
and understand France's current position regarding Iraq and not act like
little children throwing temper tantrums because some one else disagrees
with them.
President Chirac's efforts to find a way to
disarm Saddam without getting American troops killed is not an act of effrontery
or hatred toward the United States. What if France decided they wanted to oust
the regime in Saudi Arabia? They're not exactly paragons in their
treatment of their own people. Suppose France decided they were going to invade
Saudi Arabia and install a new government. Would we jump right in and lend
a hand or would we say "wait, let's think this thing over first."? So why
should we expect other countries to jump to our whims? Just because George
W. Bush says so? France doesn't want to start another war. So what. Neither does
90% of the rest of the world right want to start another war.
We're sure showing France a thing or two!
First we rename our junk and breakfast food and now we're going to
take back all our dead people. I sure hope this teaches them a lesson. This
country is full of idiotic five-year-olds masquerading as Congressional
representatives. I hope someone is keeping a record of all this
stupidity. Let this be the last term these children serve.
Is it any wonder why other people hate
the Unites States when we have crackpot lunatics like Miss Ginny in
Congress???
I encourage everyone to call, write or fax
Miss Ginny and express their feelings about her proposed
legislation!
