The Vets of ALL wars should be treated with the utmost respect. What we did to them is simply shameful, especially those from the Vietnam war-it wasn't their choice to go, but they did when they were called. My dad was part of the 13 days in October, 1962 (recalled) and thanks to that little incident, I have life.
I love Rolling Thunder and all the good it does.

I didn't see Dear Leader amongst the crowd of true Americans, he was too busy kissing some foreign dictators ass after doing the REQUIRED placing of a wreath @ the Tomb of the Unknown.

I can't wait for the day when I can stand over his grave and piss on it.

Thanks for the video and pics Wild Thing. I wish I could take part in the Memorial Day/Rolling Thunder event. At least I know it gives a lot of vets and patriotic Americans an opportunity to get together and show their love for America. These events take place all over America on Memorial Day weekend.

I bet Artie Muller, the president of Rolling Thunder, did not meet with the commie asswipe in the White House.

Move over a little bit cuchieddie so I can join you and the crowd pissing on that grave.

How's about we share a bottle of Scotch... or Jim Beam no matter, then piss on his grave.

Lynn, love ya but "What we did to them is simply shameful"

It wasn't you dear, you are a patriotic, thinking American, your own flesh and blood are serving to protect us at home, thank you. Please don't blame or include yourself in what these vermin did.

It was those un-american malcontents that demanded "humanitarian intercession" against Communist aggression. It was on who's watch that a Catholic ally Ngô Đình Diệm Jean Baptiste was assassinated? It was their 'George Bush' who fabricated the Gulf of Tonkin resolution, after JFK was assassinated. It was they who unconstitutionally committed troops to battle without a declaration of war, it got bloody due to ROE's and the will to negotiate rather than win decisively, they then bailed out when we'd won all the battles and the war, they capitulated Vietnam to Communism at tremendous human costs then blamed their own countrymen for their failures.

The same halfwits in power pulled the same vituperation attacks on the Korean veterans, they were maligned and mistreated for the political failures of - make a guess.

The Vietnam war or the Korean war would never have happened if not for the WWII veterans. Should Americans blame them also? The goddamn frogs didn't even invite the Queen of England to the Normandy memorials, she and her mother served the war effort to free Europe. WTF is wrong with this picture?

If only the UN had been around in 1939 and if the same spineless politicians we now have were in office, just think, all of us, including the ladies, could be sporting short black mustaches, wearing jackboots, doing the Storm Troopers Lambreth Waltz while singing our Sieg Heils!!!

They are in total control now and isn't that what we are about to do for Obama? Look back to see the future.

Yes Mark, Tom and Cuchieddie. Let's water board the bastard first, piss without letup.

One of my favorite quotes:

We, the unwilling, led by the unknowing, are doing the impossible for the ungrateful. We have done so much, for so long, with so little, we are now qualified to do anything with nothing. ~ Mother Teresa

Yes Mark, Tom, Jack and Cuchieddie; I shall join all of you. Perhaps we can all car-pool together.
Jack, the waterboarding is a nice touch.
