Baked Potato

Dear Democrats, the Republicans are handing us the Military [View all]

on a silver platter, through their insulting rhetoric and blunders. Take the Military and Patriotism, embrace it, and keep it forever. Republicans are showing themselves as traitorous, money hungry scum balls who besmirch even the most courageous and honorable public servants, in uniform and out.

A sea change is possible with this important group of Americans. Pound the corrupt turncoats hard. Expose their phony patriotism for what it is.

To those in uniform... You are loved and respected and appreciated!
