Freedomswatch.org is a new organization finally bringing the truth to the American public by bringing in real troops and family members who lost lives and limbs and still support winning in Iraq. The funny part is when you head to the forums in the youtube videos comment sections, you will see that the moonbats are out like crazy (there goes their weekend!) .
All of a sudden it is okay to attack people who lost loved ones and limbs in the military. Amazingly now that this shows the moonbats (liberals and Ron Paul stompers) whose side the military is really on here, it took them all of five seconds to reveal their true crocodile-concern for troops and civilians.
Thank you to all the troops and visit the website today and donate! We finally need to get the real truth and the real message out there.

Inevitably, the liberals will demonstrate preposterous hypocrisy by attacking these heroes. It will be hypocritical because of their presumed reaction against (1) Ann Coulter after she unloaded on the 9/11 widows who became mouthpieces for the anti-war movement; and (2) Rush Limbaugh after he pointed out that Michael J. Fox deliberately did not take his medication when lobbying Congress to support stem cell research. (Despite his liberal tendencies, I still like Fox. He’s a great guy). The bottom line is that liberals believe “wounded people” are only off limits if they are supporting Leftist causes.
BTW Phil, I’m glad to see that there are more and more gay people who do not succumb to Leftist brainwashing. Welcome aboard the right side.
I’m pretty ambivalent about the ‘troops’. I don’t support them but I don’t recall ever really attacking them either. just seems like shit happens when you join the military. sometimes you get your ‘education’ paid for, sometimes you lose a leg, sometimes you get so tramatised that you become mentally deranged for the rest of your life.
but the the dude in the video needs to smell the coffee, he _did_ lose the leg for ‘no reason’. (other than he was getting paid to take that risk.)
he’s so upset he lost a leg that he wants to send more and more young guys over there to face the same fate? that’s sick.
I’ve caught a few of these commercials on TV. Very powerful. And very hard to watch. My husband, in particular, has a hard time with it because he came home in one piece.
Moonbats, of course, would never understand that feeling because they can’t even understand respecting someone who holds an opinion they have fought and bled for. It’s not about what someone has done to them, it’s only about what they say. And they BETTER say what the moonbats consider the correct thing.
Right, cause you know, there aren’t any liberals in the military fighting in Iraq. Every single one of them are die-hard repubs.
Doesn’t seem to a problem attacking the troops that come home and oppose the war, or the family of a famous ex-football player that went to war and then turned against it, but had his head blown off from 10 yards away. It’s OK to attack THOSE people, cause you know, they’re just liberal moonbats.
I am a Republican and I still say to you warwhores “get over it.” You sound like complete idiots and with the ‘appeal to emotions’ for something that is pragmatic REALLY makes you sound like liberals.
Emo-publicans, maybe?
I just love alleged “Repubs” that come out swinging for moveon.org.
I don’t think I’m having a problem with the moonbats and their attacking these brave folks. We Republicans (the real ones) understand liberals’ tricks of using victims for talking points.
The truth is more folks are in our corner militarily than support the moveron.org crowd. And you’re right, there aren’t any moonbat crazies fighting a war that is a VOLUNTEER army.
I don’t care that liberals are attacking these good folks. It helps my cause, I think it’s funny that the moonbats are sqealing like stuck-pigs tonight.
Anything else?
I am a veteran, my best friend died March 5th of this year in Iraq and I have lots of friends over there now. I think the war should be ended as soon as possible and I support Ron Paul.
The truth is every soldier is different. They have different political persuasions and ideas, just like the rest of Americans. Some of them would call me a traitor for saying we should end the war. Thats their right.
Its just my opinion that whether we leave tomorrow or 20 years from now, that country is going to destabilize and go to war with itself. We might as well leave now and save ourselves a lot of time, money and lives. We won the war in 2003/4 when we took out Saddam and his government. That was the goal, and it was accomplished. Staying now does more harm than good.
Jason, I respectively disagree. Everything we did will be undone and destroyed if we cave into fear.
I seriously thank you for your service however and will end it there.
Thanks for your comment.
P.S.
Sorry about your best-friend. He was a true hero.
Jason, I disagree.
I have never in my life heard a Republican, as part of the mainstream Reps, say someone was a traitor. You may interpret it that way, but that doesn’t make it true.
I just ask that if we do leave Iraq prematurely, that you take responsibility for the ultimate bloodshed that will occur. If everyone wants to hold George Bush responsible, I believe the liberal groups need to take responsibility for the fact that once we leave, the bad guys move in. George Bush has admitted that some mistakes have been made (he said that shortly before the surge).
You may not like the war and you may hate George Bush, but making decisions for your country based on your personal experience, first, compromises our troops security in the region and second, does nothing to show the world that our country means business. You may hate what I am going to say, but I think it stains the memory of your friend and the cause that he fought for – killing the terrorist before they have the chance to come to our country again.
If we leave Iraq before the security is maintained and the Iraqis take over, are you willing to accept those consequences, all because of your personal experience?
I’d call my congressmen, but Kennedy’s probably drunk, Kerry’s most likely in Davos and the remaining state delegation won’t be here until next year’s election.
Devil and Shawmut, you guys are the best really!
The creator of this ad doesn’t even know the soldiers name. He was called out on Hardball the other day, pretty funny.
And also, last time I checked, 9/11 and Iraq had nothing to do with each other. Now they we are in Iraq, however, we have the opportunity to go bankrupt and have Americans killed in order to build a nation into democracy, free of terrorist.
Wait, what?
I’m sorry but I’m not all that convinced that the only people that we are fighting in Iraq are religious fanatics and terrorists.
We’re building the biggest embassy known to the world there and 9 permanent military bases, which combined together occupy the same amount of space as the Vatican.
How would you feel if you were promised to have a liberating democracy only to find that you have a handpicked government which has closer ties to the U.S. government than to your own people?
I find it kind of rich that people would ask me to be responsible for the ultimate bloodshed going on there, considering that I was one of millions that participated in THE largest worldwide protest in world history prior to the Iraq War beginning. I talked to my friends and countrymen and I tried to tell them the truth about the lack of WMD’s, the former US – Saddam ties, the lack of an Al-Queda – Iraq connection, the new policy of pre-emptive war against a country who could not harm us. I tried to warn you, as did so many other people of much more influence than me, and nobody wanted to listen.
Why should we ask our fellow countrymen and servicemen to continue to risk their lives for our mistakes in foreign policy? Why should we have to continue to finance what is becoming widely acknowledged as a bad decision?
Is everyone who chooses to fight us in Iraq simply a “terrorist”? What about Al-Sadr the Iraqi national who once aligned himself with the new Iraqi government, only to become so disappointed in our lack of progress that he ended up leaving it in frustration earlier this year?
How many Iraqi civilians do you think have found themselves caught in the crossfire? Its estimated we killed 3500 people just in the ‘Shock and Awe’ campaign alone when we started this 4 years ago.
Then we have the audacity to get on television and say, “Well it’s better that it happens to them than us.” As if that political message would not make it back to the Iraqi people. “Better you dying than me, man”.. “Yeah, it sucks but some of your civilians are gonna have to die while we protect our interests..”
Brent said: “And also, last time I checked, 9/11 and Iraq had nothing to do with each other. Now they we are in Iraq, however, we have the opportunity to go bankrupt and have Americans killed in order to build a nation into democracy, free of terrorist.”
Al Qaeda was in Egypt
Al Qaeda was in Afghanistan
Al Qaeda was in Spain
Al Qaeda was in Sudan
Al Qaeda was in Morrocco
Al Qaeda was in Kuwait
Al Qaeda was in Saudi Arabia
Al Qaeda was in Syria
But, Al Qaeda WASN’T in Iraq!
I know, I know, Al Qaeda wasn’t the reason for going into Iraq. But, my friend, for you to say, irresponsibly, that 9/11 and Iraq don’t have anything in common, then I think you are very misguided. Even the Iraq Study Group, which libs like to quote all of the time, said that there was no “operational” connection, but there are “mutual interests” between the 9/11 murderers and the former leadership in Iraq.
Keep it up, troops, you are doing a great job, no matter what Brent and his ilk say.
Devil Dog // Aug 25th 2007 at 12:53 pm
wooow… now your lack of reasoning is bordering on insanity.
I do give you credit for actually trying to establish a link rather than just saying there was.
Where’s Osama again? Probably hiding with the WMDs? Hmm… they both can’t be found by Bush. Maybe he’ll play that little game of hide and seek with the reporters again while our men and women die over there.
But, I am just a flaming (oops, no offense, steve) liberal, right? I mean I must be if I oppose Bush and his gay conservative followers (damn, did it again!) Be honest, you people are all going to vote for Hillary next year aren’t you? Since all liberals are pro-war and pro-democracry-spreading. You finally have one of your own to vote for. Goodbye… glad to see you leave the party.
Scapegoat (great handle btw)
I don’t doubt that there are many liberal men who are “flaming” — good grief, look at John Kerry who lives off of his wife. Look at John Edwards! I don’t take offense to silly words that most shallow minded people attach to someone because of sexual preference.
Any Republican (gay or straight) can take on any liberal (gay or straight) and put their flame out faster than you say “gurrrrrl”
I wish I could congratulate you on originality as you did with Devil Dog (whose argument was great btw – good one DD!) but the “Where’s Osama” canard that liberals have been yammering is hardly “original.”
I will accept that though if you can come back and tell me that you support at least ONE of Bush’s anti-terrorism policies here at home such as the Patriot Act, listening to phone calls of suspected terrorists with Al-Queda connections, tell me you support detaining them at Gitmo! Better yet, tell me you support profiling at airports!
The problem with liberals is that they use “Where’s Osama” as their only “anti-terrorism” repartee. I wish one could come forth with something. Frankly, Bush has done many things — including Iraq — to show these savages that we mean business.
Your blather would be more credible if you supported just one of those things.
Steve, sometimes their insanity is just as telling as the ineptitude I have at trying to respond – you just don’t know where to begin.
They are all over the board.
They won’t tell you they support one of GWB’s efforts, because they still can’t get over the 2000 election. When it comes down to everything, that is the deciding factor in condemning GWB. I don’t have any doubt they want the best for this country, but they only want it after the destruction is complete and they can build it their way.
That is insanity!
Yeah, Al Qaeda was everyone (hell, they were in Canada), but they weren’t in Iraq?
That is insanity also!
Hey, SCAPEGOAT, I have a statement and a question:
All libs state the real work should be done in Afghanistan. I believe there is progress and there is now a government in Afghanistan.
If the real work is to be done in Afghanistan, shouldn’t the libs be with GWB in the hunt for Osama, instead of their typical line, “Where’s Osama?”
Shouldn’t you be rooting that we find Osama, instead of criticizing?
Nawww, I don’t think the support is there and never was there for capturing Osama.
I am for going after Osama, moron. Your saint-in-chief isn’t doing it. In case you haven’t read the latest intelligence reports, al-qaeda has regrouped in Afghanistan and Pakistan (which is a miliray dictatorship with nukes, a trigger finger against India and a proven record that it will do NOTHING about the terrorist groups.)
But, I suppose you also refuse to believe the intelligence reports and whistle-blowers that are coming out and telling us that we are now FUNDING and ARMING al-qaeda linked groups against Iran. How many of those weapons made their way into the hands of those killing our men and women?
I would support Bush if he actually took national security seriously. I WOULD be for profiling at airports, if that were actually being done. But it isn’t. So he has failed in that too.
I suppose you also don’t believe that the guys in the Fort Dix incident came across our open borders during a time Bush was fighting the American people and calling them racists.
I bet you also don’t believe that an armed Mexican Army was invited into Katrina to help disarm the populace there.
I guess you also don’t believe we are borrowing nearly 1 million a day from China to fund this war. China, a communist country that would become a threat to us if we invaded Iran.
I don’t support Bush because he is a failure as a conservative.
Call me a liberal all you want, if it makes you feel better. I don’t usually get too upset over sophomoric name-calling of a liberal pretending to be a conservative. Morons like you just dismiss anyone that criticizes St. Bush as being the failure that he is. Unlike you, us real conservatives police our own.
I ask again, where is Osama. If the left are saying it too, I am sure it is only politics for them. Or maybe they are just an American that actually reads the intelligence reports (I doubt it, though.)
Later, Sparky
“I suppose you also don’t believe that the guys in the Fort Dix incident came across our open borders during a time Bush was fighting the American people and calling them racists. ”
It wasn’t conservatives like Bush that set up that sainted structure that told the rest of the world that we took ANYONE in just as they were. It was Carter in the 70′s that betrayed the Shah and left Iran to be taken over by Muslim crazies.
I’m glad you brought up the Fort Dix case. How about the JFK Plot? How about plans to blow up the Brooklyn Bridge and the Sears Tower?
I do believe that the man you claim doesn’t care about national security – GW Bush – implemented and supported the Patriot Act and NSA wiretaps that led to the prohibition of these attacks being carried out.
How about the Bush endorsed “John Doe Amendment” that prevents American citizens from being sued by different races when they turn them into authorities for suspicious behavior? You know, the amendment Democrats wanted stomped out.
“Where’s Osama” doesn’t cut it. You obviously weren’t paying attention after 1979 when it all started. You weren’t caring about all the attacks we endured during the Reagan, Bush Sr., and Clinton administrations.
We weren’t attacked on 9/11 by ONE MAN, we were attacked by an idiotic ideology that was dreaming of that day for 20+ years.
That simple-minded idiotic thinking out of someone who claims to be a Republican while claiming that I am a liberal is not only dangerous to what our overall focus should be, it just doesn’t make any sense.
Not one thing you said truly supports you wanting to fight terrorism. It seems to me that your ultimate goal is to do what all liberals and “liberals pretending tobe Republicans” do, Bush bash and lay blame.
This is a long haul, finding Osama, killing Saddam, Zarqawi – capturing and killing hundreds of thousands on insurgents and eliminating Al-Queda of their precious 9/11 mastermind shows me that Bush DOES care about our security.
Couple that with the fact that your shady ass hasn’t been attacked in almost six years sort of makes my case for me.
“This is a long haul, finding Osama, killing Saddam, Zarqawi – capturing and killing hundreds of thousands on insurgents and eliminating Al-Queda of their precious 9/11 mastermind shows me that Bush DOES care about our security.”
Yep. So when exactly is he going to start getting around to doing this? So, he really didn’t mean it when he said he doesn’t know where Osama is and doesn’t really think about him much?
And you listed some potential terror attacks. You mean the ones that weren’t even remotely credible and were usually spurred on by FBI informants? The ones hyped up by the media?
If these are the cases you site, I say we are chasing our tail. I wonder what the REAL plots are, that they missing while playing at losers who weren’t even attempting to hide what they ‘dreamed’ of doing.
BTW, when was the last major terrorist attack in the 6 years before 9/11? A case? Maybe a weak one. With open borders and public infrastructure being sold to foreign countries, I’m sure it won’t be long now.
I guess we’ll have to agree to disagree, because I just think you are f*cking stupid and I am obviously wasting my time arguing with you.
Maybe you aren’t a liberal but you sure have the intelligence of one.
The ones hyped up by the media? Are you insane or have you just not been paying attention for the last five years?
Everytime our government puts forth a new “classified” anti-terror plan, it manages to go right into the hands of the New York Times and Moveon.org.
Liberals like yourself (I’m sorry, until you learn to use real facts and stop avoiding the ones I put to you, you shall be deemed as a liberal in these parts) use cases (as you just did) like Fort Dix and the JFK Terror plot to tell us why Bush is failing. I then point out why these incidents only strengthen Bush’s case for taking terrorism seriously, you then brush them aside as if they weren’t a big deal. Which is it dude, are you using Fort Dix to make your point or aren’t you? By your own description, I guess the post you slammed Bush on the basis of these would-be attacks is null in void since it wasn’t even “remotely credible” to begin with.
You’re the one arguing like a liberal. My position has stayed the same throughout this entire discussion while the importance or lack thereof of these foiled terror plots stopped by Bush’s anti-terror policies seem to shift on your own end depending on which point they are supporting.
Seems to me they are only important to you when sadly attempting to make the same arguments as Cindy Sheehan or Howard Dean.
You asked when Bush is going to get around to doing some of the things I mentioned — again you’re acting like you don’t understand English.
Let’s recap:
–Zarqawi is dead.
–Saddam is deposed and dead.
–Saddam’s psycho sons are dead.
–Saddam can no longer fund and harbor terror.
–Hundreds of thousands of insurgents and terrorists have been killed or captured.
–The 9/11 Mastermind was captured, detained, and is now been put away forever!
–Most of Al-Queda’s top officials have been rounded up or killed.
When Bush says he really isn’t thinking about Osama, he is correct. While we cannot forget and while we still must find and destroy him (if he is even still alive that is) we have to keep in mind that the bigger picture here has to be kept in focus.
All sorts of terrorists have plagued us since 1979 and they weren’t all “one man”, “one group”, or from “one country” — the entire fighting spirit of that ideology has to be destroyed and OBL is just one element of that.
It’s a complex issue and we cannot stop. But it is only because of liberals like you who run out with your “bumper sticker slogans” that attempt to persuade Americans to think that capturing and killing ONE MAN is going to end it all tomorrow.
Contrary to what you say, you’re welcome to post whatever you want. But if it isn’t any better than what you have given me, be prepared to grow frustrated very fast.
But, Scapegoat, you will never concede anything that Bush has done correctly.
Again, please read my post and answer my question.
Again, you were the first with the sophomoric insults (i.e., moron), not me.
If it acts like a liberal, talks like a liberal, then it must be a liberal.
