I loved this photo collage so much I am going to repost it. Just call it Sanitys Bluff Summer Rerun Session.
Some will love this photo collage, some will hate it. I love this collage. I love my country, my president, and my countries defenders. Want to make an unamerican liberal mad? Show them the truth about America. Watch! This should bring the cockroaches out of the woodwork.
No we won't be celebrating May the fifth tomorrow.
Thanks loafer: your're right we might not agree on much but we can be nice about disagreeing! Nice layout on your blog. I still got to learn some things. keep on truckin'!

ReplyDeleteThanks to you also Gary, I guess I have always been overly patriotic. I have driven about 4 million miles on the roads of the United States of America. I have tasted all the possible emotions that could be involved with this experiment in democracy (America).
ReplyDeleteIf America would cease to exist tomorrow, I wouldn't want to live in the remains. How can I say it any plainer that that. I love America, and want her to exist forever, benifiting the whole earth, by the sacrifice of a few. (I'm talking about our nations warriors who make the world safer)
I wish I could hug every warrior that leaves the comfort of their home to go fight our nation's enemies...hugggggg them. (If you don't think our nations enemies need killed, you don't love America)
Hug them and tell them, they are my heroes, and I pray they return home to enjoy the country they protected when it was attacked.
God Bless America
good to see this at last
ReplyDeletepoor mans be atacked enough.
and god look after all the boys out there figthing for a free world.
percy
Great stuff!!!
ReplyDeleteI'm with you, I love this nation and support George W. One day President Bush will get the respect and honor due him.
Often greatness isn't understood until much later..
Keep flying Old Glory, you're far from being alone..
I love America and support the concept of a presidency. The President is just a hired politician sworn to serve the people. We do not owe him our allegiance....it's the other way around.
ReplyDeleteExcellent Post!
ReplyDeleteThank You!
If the World only Knew... A slideshow I did that I think would go well with this Post. WL- I too love this country, the Brave Defenders of her and my President.
ReplyDeleteClick here: 'If the world only Knew' for the slideshow. (DSL/Cable works best with my productions.)
AubreyJ...........
i highly recommend following aubreyj's link to the slide show. We have to counteract all of the bs being thrown at the public.
ReplyDeleteThe collage you posted certainly puts things in perspective, doesn't it. Thanks again for stopping by and commenting. I look forward to your continued posts.

(If you don't think our nations enemies need killed, you don't love America)
ReplyDeleteI'm all for supporting the troops (and the troops alone because the cause itsself is bullshit) but to say an people "need [to be] killed" is some scarey ass hitler-esque rhetoric... Someone once said (paraphrased) "when fascism comes to america it will come riding the cross and wrapped in the american flag" It seems to have worked and every christian in america is buying it. ("enemies of our country need to be killed"... I'm sure that's exactly what Jesus would ahve said.)
amen dude, amen

ReplyDeleteLocalize the principle and you'll see what Web Loafer is talking about.
For example, do you believe you have a right to defend your children or your wife from a sexual predator? Do you believe that if one made his way into your house in the middle of the night you'd have the right to shoot him, even before he began his grisly work? Do you believe that if a rapist or a murderer said that the only way you were going to prevent him from doing what he wanted to do was to kill him that you would have the night/responsibility to stop him by any means necessary before he carried out his threat?
Answer those questions and then maybe we can have a dialogue.
Count me among those that love that collage. Had never seen it before so I'm very thankful I found it on your blog. The pictures are beautiful and stunning. Magnificent!

ReplyDeleteIf Mr. Bush's war in Iraq is worth dying for, then the children of the privileged should be doing some of the dying.

oh, bob, bob, bob... you just don't get it, do you...? the privileged and their children OWN the rest of us... we are there to do their bidding... we are there to insure that there is no constraint placed on their privilege and that they have unfettered access to however much more privilege they wish to acquire... as in the rest of their lives, the hired help mows the lawn, cleans the pool, takes care of the housekeeping, does the shopping, pays the bills, repairs the little things that have such an annoying habit of breaking down, extends their span of global control, and creates more opportunities to acquire even greater wealth... why SHOULD they burden themselves with any of those details...? they've EARNED the right to their life of ease...
as a truck driver, web loafer, you should know better than anyone how the above works... of any category of hard workers in the u.s., i can't think of one that is more exploited than truckers, except perhaps those who clean walmart stores at night, work in meat-packing plants, or who pick lettuce in the fields of california... all the pretty collages and noble sentiments in the world will not change the facts...
HEY NICE SITE PLEASE CHECK OUT PART ONE OF MY NEW SUSPENCE STORY CALLED "NOT SO ALONE" THANKS!
ReplyDeleteGreat Blog! It's refreshing to see some good stuff in this pool of mostly liberal idiots blogging. Keep up the good work!
ReplyDeleteI'm not sure if you'd consider me unamerican or a scumbag. Namecalling doesn't really get to me...well, not usually. :)
ReplyDeleteI love my country & I assume by 'defenders' you mean our military, I support them too.
I don't like, love, appreciate, vote for, and on & on for President George W. Bush.
I do like your blog though & thank you for posting on mine.
peace
Great site and great post!!!!

I'm not an American, but I love your collage. You're doing great work out there in Iraq. I'm sorry Canada hasn't joined you in the war, but I want you to know there are some Canadians who support you.
ReplyDeleteDaniel, I just save photos I think say something, and when I have a bunch, put a collage together.
ReplyDeleteI think Canada's biggest problem stems from all the hippies who left the USA in the 60's and fled to Canada. Their country called and they ran away. If Canada would kick out all of the expatriots from the USA, you would have a better nation. I have only admiration for the real Canadians, and only contempt for the draft dodging cowards that invaded your country 40 years ago from the USA. When I think about real Canadians, I think of people who work hard, and have always joined in when the battle raged. WWI, WWII, Korea, even VietNam, the Canadian people have helped make the world a better place. I don't know why you put up with the Berkely Bums who invaded your country, BUT:We don't want them back either, so we would have to think of someplace to send them........perhaps a little naval base in Cuba???
Isn't it interesting that all the draft dodgers and deserters from Vietnam are now running and rooting for this latest version of a pointless political war?
ReplyDeletedraft dodgers and deserters?
ReplyDeleteCome on, we're all tired of Dan Ratherism's....be original.
The DRAFT DODGERS AND TRAITORS TO AMERICA ARE NOW IN POWER IN CANADA, OR IN THE ACLU, PICKING ON BOY SCOUTS AND THE BIBLE. You and Micheal Moore are wearing out your welcome amongst people who think with reason instead of emotion. So you hate George W. Bush? You have an unhealthy obsession about the man. Let it go, enjoy life a little.
Whatever the war is, it isn't pointless. Nothing is ever pointless. Everything happens for a reason.
ReplyDeleteIf I were American I'd probably love it like you do, loafer, but I'm not.
I guess I just have a different set of morals that will not allow me to "go on with my life", like your fearless leader.
ReplyDeleteWhere are the pictures of the coffins?
ReplyDeleteMark if you wish, picture them on your own blog. Grief is not a community experience, think, Cindy Seehan and all the ones in the ditch with her. I also don't like it when people put crosses on the highway to point out where a loved one died in an automobile accident. If you must grieve, do it privately.
ReplyDeleteIf you really are sincere and not just some Micheal Moore wannabe, I suggest a trip to Arlington National Cemetary. Walk amongst the thousands of markers, an think about the million or more soldiers that have died defending this great country from it's enemies.
Your flippant post here, proves you are not worthy to be enjoying the liberty that men and women died for.
My comment was not flippant but DEADLY serious. People have died as the direct result of those you admire lieing to you, and I get no sense of any anger from you about that. Colin Powell sat and lied to the UN and Bush, as far as I can see, lied for about 3 years. Irag was never about to attack the US, so how can you say that it was defence of America.
ReplyDeleteWith regard to military cemetaries, I have gone with my father to look at the cemetries in France and Belgium. Don't ever talk to me about being worthy of the liberty. My Father and his comrades fought for my right to express my opinion openly and to to be accused by some right-wing fanatic of being unworthy. My father was trapped on the beaches at Dunkirk - where were the "brave" American allies when it was really needed. In 2 World Wars, America came late, so we in Europe tend to be a little dubious of American intentions, particularly from right-wing administrations.
As for greif, how wrong can you be! It could be argued that because greif is shut away and hidden, the true horror of some decisions can be avoided. George Bush would LOVE it if your soldiers could just quietly die and their relatives not make any fuss. Finally, don't dismiss Michael Moore just because the Right in America tell you to. Read it, check his reference - and there are many, and open your mind. I don't think he tells the complete truth, and he spins some things as much as your present Administration does, but believe me, there is a truth in some of what he says. Open your mind.
the complete truth....?Micheal Moore spinning a little??
ReplyDeleteNo, tell me it isn't so.
Sanity's Bluff?
Me thinks you have followed the other DNC koolade drinking masses in jumping over the bluff.
Do you know how you sound to those that love America?
And I will question your patriotism, because no Patriot would give aid and comfort to the enemy.
To me this is plain.
How many soldiers and heros that have died across the World for freedom are you going to insult? I'm not sure you really do love America or you would not be saying such silly things. Get your head out of the sand and see what the cowboys are doing to your once great and noble nation. If all you can do is insult those who disagree with you, then you have lost the arguement already. You question patriotism, but true patriotism is accepting that your country can and does get it wrong, and it is the DUTY of all TRUE patriots to stand up and say so when he or she feels the country has run off the tracks. Unfortunately for you, you do need to take the blinkers off first.
ReplyDeleteWhen at war, those that disagree are my enemy. What do you fail to see? Our nation is at war, not one we started, but one we most certainly will end.
ReplyDeleteAnd you can cheer our troops and leader on, or be unpatriotic and in my mind, a traitor. With so much on the line, (can you say existence?) I have no time for the stupid clones of M. Moore.
