8 more marines killed today

I wish we could just pull out but its too late for that, I f'ing hate this. It makes me sick.

I wish Presidents had to personally call families and tell them their son is dead.. I think they'd have a reality check.

Thank You.

Thanks Mr. Bush for putting more bullets into soldiers heads

What a shame

Another Vietnam

Bush wouldn't know anything about Vietnam and bullets since him, Chaney, Connolly and a few other "good old boys" from Texas got into the Air National Guard while the regular "folk" did the right thing. Bush is a bully who loves to say crap like "Saddam you've got 48 hours to get out of Dodge" but no spine to pick up a M-16 and back it up. :kicking:

Cheney never even had the guts to go into the National Guard. He FIVE deferments! As each one expired he did something else to renew it. Education, marriage, kids, etc. As soon as he was too old to be drafted he dropped out of his PhD program.

Bush should just go to Iraq and kill the soldiers himself

What a disgrace he is to this Country

He wrecked the World

Jay C, that's incredible what a piece of sh#t.:bowl:

Marines know what they are getting into when you join, ok, I know. They don't need bleeding heart liberals whining back home and bad mouthing their President. Most would kick the **** out of you for the crap you are spewing.

Yeah, your right Pimpin, it's unpatriotic to actually give a fu ck about these kids - but like you say - they joined so fu ck them - you worthless piece of ****.

Pimpin you are an embarrassment to other fellow republicans.

I dont think people who enlisted in the national guard signed up for deployment in Iraq or anywhere else outside the US

I find it amusing that Bush bashing threads stay up at the Offshore Books forum, but if a thread that in the slightest reflects negatively on Kerry the thread is moved immediately to the political forum.

Thread expressing remorse for dead American soldiers is a Bush bashing thread? If you say so. Sad. But unfortunately true I suppose.

31 people on average kill themselves every week because of gambling.

This thread is still here. I am fine. If something you post can sway one candidate, then it is worth it!
