snopes.com: John Glenn 'I Have Held a Job!' Quote (http://www.snopes.com/politics/quotes/glenn.asp) ????
John Glenn (DEMOCRAT) said this ----- It should make us all think a little...
There were 39 combat related killings in Iraq in Jan, In the fair city of Detroit there were 35 murders in the month of January. That's just one American city about as deadly as the entire war-torn country of Iraq
When some claim that President Bush shouldn't have started this war, tell them the following
FDR (DEMOCRAT) led us into World War II Germany never attacked us; Japan did From 1941-1945, 450,000 lives were lost
an average of 112,500 per year
Truman (DEMOCRAT) finished that war and started one in Korea. North Korea never attacked us. From 1950-1953, 55,000 lives were lost an average of 18,334 per year
John F. Kennedy (DEMOCRAT) started the Vietnam conflict in 1962
Vietnam never attacked us
Johnson (DEMOCRAT) turned Vietnam into a quagmire From 1965-1975, 58,000 lives were lost an average of 5,800 per year
Clinton (DEMOCRAT) went to war in Bosnia without UN or French consent Bosnia never attacked us==He was offered Osama bin Laden's head on a platter three times by Sudan and did nothing. Osama has attacked us on multiple occasions
This one is a fact that really makes me mad
In the years since terrorists attacked us, President Bushhas liberated two countries, crushed the Taliban, crippled Qaida, put nuclear inspectors in Libya, Iran, and, North Korea without firing a shot, and captured a terrorist who slaughtered 300,000 of his own people. And the Democrats are complaining about how long the war is taking, But Wait, There's more.
We've been looking for evidence for chemical weapons in Iraq for less time than it took Hillary Clinton (DEMOCRAT) to find the Rose law firm billing records
It took less time for the 3rd Infantry Division and the Marines to destroy the Medina Republican Guard than it took Ted Kennedy to call the police after his Oldsmobile sank at Chappaquiddick It took less time to take Iraq than it took to count the votes in Florida
Our Commander-In-Chief is doing a GREAT JOBThe Military morale is high
The biased media hopes we are too ignorant to realize the facts
But Wait ....... There's more!
JOHN GLENN (on the Senate floor - January 26, 2004
Some people still don't understand why military personnel do what they do for a living. This exchange between Senators John Glenn and Senator Howard Metzenbaumis worth reading. Not only is it a pretty impressive impromptu speech, but it's also a good example of one man's explanation of why men and women in the armed services do what they do for a living
This is a typical, though sad, example of what some who have never served think of the military]
Senator Metzenbaum (speaking to Senator Glenn)
How can you run for Senate when you've never held a real job? 'Senator Glenn (D-Ohio) I served 23 years in the United States Marine Corps I served through two wars. I flew 149 missions My plane was hit by anti-aircraft fire on 12 different occasions. I was in the space program. It wasn't my checkbook, Howard; it was my life on the line. It not a nine-to-five job, where I took time off to take the daily cash receipts to the bank.' 'I ask you to go with me, as I went the other day to a veteran's hospital and look those men with their mangled bodies ... in the eye, and tell THEM they didn't hold a job
You go with me to the Space Program at NASA and go, as I have gone, to the Widows and Orphans of Ed White, Gus Grissom and Roger Chaffee ... and you look those kids in the eye and tell them that their DAD'S didn't hold a job You go with me on Memorial Day and you stand in Arlington National Cemetery, where I have more friends buried than I'd like to remember, and you watch those waving flags You stand there, and you think about this nation and you have the gall to tell ME that those people didn't have a job What about Metzenbaum?'
For those who don't remember During W.W.II, Howard Metzenbaum was an attorney representing the Communist Party in the USA Now he's a Senator...
