This story brought me to tears. My dad was career military, and spent a lot of time overseas. It was always a blessing when he returned. Not just for me, but for my Mom.
Thankfully, he came home unscathed every time, and is now retired. I hope this young girl will be able to enjoy her father as a grandfather to her kids, as I have.
As for Molly, I ignore her. She (if she's even a "she") is not worth my time.
I always enjoy seeing your posts. It is encouraging to know that there are people out there who understand what's going on.

Everyone here IS happy for the father and daughter, EXCEPT for molly, who thinks everyone is a Nazi wingnut who drinks babies' blood.
Liberals, sheesh! |
|
I find it appalling that this thread was turned into a hatefest.
This was about a family welcoming home a man who fought for us. All of us. Right, left, Dem, Repub, Independent mean NOTHING to this story.
This young girl just got her father back home. Can anyone on this thread just be happy for her? |
|

You are a pityful human being |
|
|
Yes i am old and I guess now I am getting bitter. I am getting bitter because idiots like you are destroying my wonderful country. You see I love this country. You and your group have nothing but distain for it that is obvious. |
|
actually, i'm a Joneser. kinda like Barack. it is generationally distinct from the Boomers who came of age during Vietnam.
in any case, this is America. we are capitalists here. your little experience with the Soviets and the Road to Serfdom is not the American experience. it is just that sometimes, capitalism must be saved from itself. sometimes, allowing men to chase their animal appetites without restriction or sanction does not create the best outcome. Sometimes it creates wicked and evil outcomes. and that is what we got from Boomer "conservatives." their radical fidelity to consumerism and the unregulated market led to the moral cesspool we are in today. add to that their stupid misreadings of "the lessons of history," and our country has been driven into the ground by these fools.
yeah, there will be renewed a public presence in American life, but at least it will be democratic and represent the face of our country--the character of our country. your clowns tried to privatize the gains and socialize the losses, and unless you learn how to fix that inequitable nonsense, youre cooked. we have seen where your leadership takes us, and that trumps those clever technics which you used in the past, appealing to the baser instincts of men and pitting American against American. |
|

I am so glad that I am of an age that I will not be around for too many years to live in a country that you libs would create. If given the chance all will be controlled by the government. No one will be responsible for themselves and no one will bother to work hard as everyone will be equal. Yes I spent sometime in a former Soviet country and I saw how well that worked out for the people. I guess that you post boomers are just too lazy to take care of yourselves. Glad most of my life was during the good times. |
|
|
that has led our country seriously astray. No matter. his era is over--it is all over but the snickering and the preening. A new, post-Boomer liberalism has emerged. It shall govern the business of our country for the next decades and extricate Her from the mess these louses left. |
|
You're SO very funny. And delusional.
The best thing you guys could have done (if you're so convinced that moderation of the GOP is in everyone's best interests) is vote for McCain.
That would have VALIDATED the message.
But no- you helped get Obama elected, and the GOP is on notice that moderation is the wrong track because who needs a choice between "Ultra-leftist Liberal-Socialist" and "Democrat"? That's no choice.
If the GOP wants to destroy itself by going "moderate", whatever. I won't return to the GOP until they get their conservative principles back, and neither will a lot of others. I have other means to reject Liberalism and I'll use those.
And Frank, evil never wins the war. A few battles here and there maybe, but never the war. What a great day to recognize and reflect on that. Liberalism will die. Freedom will win.
Oh, and this: you said "Molly and cottoneyed have more in common that first blush would suggest." You should know that Liberals can't blush because they feel no sense of shame. |
|

What American needs is true Americans that love their country and we are not going to get that from the likes of you. |
|
When the poster child of blather responds so synchronistically-perfecto to what we discussed earlier, it maketh my day. Gold Freakin'Star, Girl!
So very glad you're back from sabbatical. |
|
|
Hopefully everyone knows who this poster is on the TH site. Pay this person no respect and do not bother posting anything in response. He does not deserve the attention. Let me count the contradictions in his statement..... |
|
|
You make me sick. Your sick hatred has now gotten boring to say the least. Your guy has not brought home any troops sooner than Bush planned. He now is stuck because he has no clue how to close Gitmo and the American people now know that it is the best place for these people. His stimulus that was rushed through based on keeping unemployment down to below 9% till the end of the year is also turning out to be failure as unemployment as of the end of May, only 5 months into the year, is now 9.4%. The realization has hit that his spending spree cannot be paid for by 5% of the people. 100% of the people will face large tax raises. He is sinking fast and you and your buddies are getting more vile trying to cover up the facts. Your lack of respect for this country and our military is disgusting. Why not go the way of Lonny and enjoy your hate with your friends over at Huffington. They deserve the likes of you. |
|
we did win, and we will continue to win. the lack of glee is because there is much work to do. a generation of failed right-wing leadership has left our country in a mess, and you radical clowns have not learned a thing from the experience. quite the contrary, you blame everyone but yourselves.
we are grim--we are angry--because your juvenile radicalism is the right anchor-point in the American political space. you get much more of a hearing from the corporate media than you deserve. meanwhile, the left anchor-point is in the center-left zone, where President Obama is. it is a moral outrage that mere right-wing radicalism is equated with responsible left of center moderation. it is a frigging outrage. but that is the way the deck is shuffled in this country. We are here to tell you that the realignment is here, and you are heading to the margins. America could use some responsible conservatism, but we are not going to get it from this generation.
The Boomers contaminated conservatism, just as they contaminated the Left back in the 60s. In those days, they were young and their youth was an excuse for the bad moral choices they made. But during the "conservative" period, they were middle-aged and had no excuse. They were just as radical, just as useless, just as destructive, only now they were on the right.
you need to clean up after these fools. you need to restore conservatism. and our anger will persist--even in the face of winning elections--until conservatism grows up and assumes its civic responsibilities. until then, you are just partisan radicals who put country behind your base lusts and ambitions. |

Was always one of my favorite stories growing up. The Hen is a farmyard John (Jane?) Galt. |
|

Funny to hear Molly discuss the thoughts of the military men. She is so far off base. The military for the most part do not adore Obama, nor do they trust him. Perhaps she should start to listen to those soldiers like my son who have come home proud of the people that they helped to free. it is quite easy to give an arm chair assessment of what the war accomplished and twist it to conform to your beliefs. Molly is one that would not sacrifice one thing for this country. She will hide behind a computer spouting her vile comments. She makes accusations and assessments that are those of a serously deranged individual. |
|
Look at you, all growed up and reaching out to counsel molly!!
Man, is this the tear-jerker thread or what?
So, I noticed a thread earlier where you mentioned "the struggle", and something about that bothered me, and I guess the question I have for you is this:
What "struggle"?
I mean, you WON: Liberal President, Liberal Cabinet, Liberal House, Liberal Senate, Liberal Media. Liberal EVERYTHING. You got it ALL.
How come I sense something less than glee and cheer from you Libs here at TH?
|
|
The best soldier ALWAYS question their superiors when the orders they get seem unreasonable or illegal or stupidly dangerous. Those who are or have been in the military know very well that Obama does not have this country's best interests at heart; he has Venezuela's best interests at heart. He loves Iran and North Korea more than America, probabaly.
I'll remind you again that he could bring the troops home anytime, since he's the CIC, but I guess he realized that BUSH WAS RIGHT! |
|
Notice how the folks who have never served in the military feel qualified to tell those who have how they should think or act?
Life is good when a person is one of those who expect others to care for them and protect them, but contribute nothing theirselves. Remember the tale of The Little Red Hen? None would help the hen do her work, but all expected to share in her efforts. The person who wrote that tale much have had experience with liberals. |
|
|
If you were a real soldier, as you seem to claim, then you would NOT be talking the way you do about your current CIC. I suppose it's easier for guys like you to back sadists in chief, those guys who torture first, wage wars of choice first and send troops to die first - before all else - and it proves my point that when it comes to mindless wars based on greed there is a contingent in this country who willingly fall in line for the aggression and bullying, period. You seem to fall into that category, hence the more appropriate name of "neejerk", emphasis on "jerk". |
|
You always seem to forget that as soldiers we volunteer to serve the President and our Country and must go and do things we don't like to do.
People like you will never get it. You are the type of people who let others do the work and then are the first to bittch about the results.
The COWboy President is now learning that as a leader some things are easier said than done, even though he won.
Three years from now, you will probably still be screaming it was all Bush's fault. Whatever. At some point, The COWboy will have to own his mistakes.
Did I say it would suck to be you? |
|
President Obama CAN'T bring them home - bush screwed them over for the long haul. It will take time and Obama deserves at least that, given the clusterfu*( he inherited from Bozo and Shooter.
_________________________________________
So then BO "lied" when he said that he would immediately bring the troops home. Also, BO was either lying about the whole campaign or he was an idiot. You can only blame other's for so long and then people are going to wonder why this a$$*ole was put in office. What happened to the "uniter"? He can apologize all he wants for him not having any kahones, but the foreing countries are laughing at him. Kind of like Hugo patting him on the head and giving him a book to read. LOL "Here, read this sonny!"
Most of the stuff he has done for the 1st 5 months now makes him responsible for any mess that HE created. 1 termer at best! |
|
I like new molly!
lo-balls!
LOL!!! |

|
|
The effects of the epinephrine are wearing off and while I am still sober I want to say that I have been a real tool and I will try to get help for all my issues. Bush was a nice man who did the best he could with what was handed to him. I can see now that obama will make poor people even poorer and he is the tru tool!
Can you send me money? |
|
You own me everytime I come here, and you and Bea bat me around like a plaything and I just want the attention. You are both so awesome and I just wanted to say, in this brief moment of lucidity, I admire your commitment to your values. You are strong women, and I will try to be more like you if I get over my self-loathing and obsession with Bush. I love you.
And I love DocInsight too.
XO! |
|
I can't help it. I need ACORN money for my habit.
The drinking doesn't chase away the pain anymore. I am reduced to making Phillips' Screwdrivers (vodka and Milk of Magnesia). My girlfriend calls them "lo-balls".How did I get so lost?
I woke up this afternoon, and whoever stayed with me last night had wet the bed and written HA-HA on my forehead in permanent marker.
I have back hair.
I need a therapist.
Please help me. |

NO one blame Obama for what Bush did or didn't do.
But he gets all the blame for what he and his administration have done or not done.
Historic deficit spending.
Unemployment rates highest in 25 years (by next month it will be double digit).
Oh, no! Crazy Liberal spending means inflation is on the way!! Bye-bye, struggling housing market! Hello increased foreclosures! What's up there, spreading middle-class misery?
Oh, and our country's allies are annoyed by Obama's stupid antics. But our enemies are encouraged! Look at them get ready to launch attacks everywhere, all at once.
What will Obama do?
He has NO IDEA! The TelePrompTer can't help.
Obama is sad :(
Michelle is mad >:< She feels entitled to stuff!
Better take her to NYC for dinner again on the taxpayer's dime! Hang out with Beyonce, girl!
Libs are so retarded. Don't worry- we'll take over again and straighten it all out while we prosecute Biden and Pelosi and Frank and Dodd and Rangel and Clinton and Murtha and Burris and...
|
|
Why is Obama following the Bush policy? If the war is one of choice, as Obama has stated more than once, why is he sending more troops to Iraq instead of bring them home?
Obama owns the war now, just like Truman, Johnson and Nixon when they inherited wars. The differnce bewteen our former presidents and Obama is he whines about what he inherited.
Real men don't whine, but however immature boy's do.
|
|
Poor widdle Obama CAN'T bwing dem home.
He is onwy the Pwesident.
Commander In Chief. Poor, poor wittle Obama.
What happened to "Yes We Can! (seriuosly f*** up this country!")
Where's the Can-Do spirit?
You Libs control:
The House
The Senate
The DOJ
EVERYTHING
Can'T?!?!
How about WON'T!!!!
Obama knows: BUSH. WAS. RIGHT.
EAT IT UP, YUM! |
|
When MSGT Myers could tuck his cherished, non-aborted little girl in that night, safe in her bed, they prayed together and thanked God for the safe return of MSGT Myers, the unity of the family, and the success of the Iraqi Liberation from Saddam Hussein's awful tyranny.
They asked God to protect the United States from Barack Obama's terrible blundering and dangerous naivetee, asked for blessings on Rush Limbaugh, and thanked God for sending His Son Jesus Christ to redeem the sins of all mankind, especially the stubbornly unrepentant Sodomites.
Then a goodnight peck, an "I love you, Daddy. Welcome Home." Lights out.
God Bless America. |

President Obama CAN'T bring them home - bush screwed them over for the long haul. It will take time and Obama deserves at least that, given the clusterfu*( he inherited from Bozo and Shooter. No one blames Obama for Bush's mess - a look outside your frightfully flatulent wingnut bubble would tell you that much. |
|
Must drive you crazy that Obama won't just make those troops come home. He must know Bush was RIGHT.
Obama TALKED about closing Gitmo, but, gee now he knows BUSH WAS RIGHT and he can't figure out how to get out of the predicament! No one wants the inmates!!!! Not even the Europeans he had to suck up to! Oh, Nooooo!!!!
Oh, gosh, Obama did something without thinking first AGAIN!!!
Bush was always so good at thinking first and THEN acting!
Obama can't get that whole order of operations thing straight.
Maybe Obama needs to call Bush again and ask for help! |
|
Another moment for the rightwing to use a darling little girl to trumpet their war of lies? Not a chance. Here, this video loses it's charm, because here at TH we are among supporters of lies and cheerleaders of torture. You make me sick. You've made this country sick. Stop using this video for your Hallmark moment, asshats - her pain and suffering without dad this past year is evident, and it's because of YOUR Party's evil greed she dealt with it.
I'm so glad her dad's home and the homecoming was a wonderful one, but DO NOT hijack this for rightwing false sentiment. We are sick to death of you. |
|
Sanctimonious, much? Enough piety and get real here. This girl hasn't seen her dad in a year, and WHY? Because of the Bush doctrine of lies. I've seen this video elsewhere, where those who posted it aren't asinine war cheerleaders and it moved me beyond words. But here, in the toilet of wingnuttia, it loses all it's sweet charm because HERE we know these sanctimonious fools see this as merely a soldier who volunteered to fight Bush's war and suffered due consequences as a result. He is a stat here, a means to an unending war of lies, and that is unacceptable.
You were right about the Playboy tripe, but that is about it, my friend. |
|
is all it took for Molly to spew her vitriol. Rather than simply focus on the wonderful homecoming for this soldier, and appreciate his recognition of the maturity and sacrifice of his young daughter by helping around the house, Molly resorts to her typical rant.
Molly, it would be perfect if all our troops - even those stationed in S Korea, Okinawa and Germany (now decades since those conflicts ended) could remain home. But despots and terrorists don't give us the luxury of a perfect world of harmony. Must be hard to be so naive.
Frank, thanks for your first post and response to Molly/Raelei/Rachel/SFB. |
|
You called me a racist earlier, but you missed my response.
Here's the thing, jerk. Had you seen the video of the black panther boys, they were as racist as you are labeling me and yes, they are black...what WAS that remark? Oh yeah, something ...about "a black man about to be president, cracker"!!
And like I said, If I, white person dressed in KKK garb had stood outside a polling place with a night stick and tried to intimidate "Jungle boy" voting for Obama as opposed to whom he was free to vote for, it violates the voting rights act. Period. But Holder let them slide because a black man is now president and they do not need to follow the law or be held accountable.
As usual Frank, you have missed the fukking point. |
|
For one ever loving moment can you just focus on the kid and the love she and her father share?
It would so suck to be you. Even Frank needed a tissue...but you, you hold onto the hate.
It. would. suck.to.be.you. |
|
We will remind you every day, every hour, every minute for years to come, of just how badly your guys screwed up this country.
_______________________________________________
It's pretty much forgotten since the head Marxist Socialist has continued to screw the pooch. In just alittle over 5 months, this amateur has taken this country to the brink of being just another Banana Republic. BO will be lucky to complete 1 term. He can run but he can't hide from all the idiotic decisions that he made thus far. |
|
|
you can remind us all you want, that still won't stop the war and bring home the troops, which is what you said you wanted in your first post. For that to happen, the Big O will have have to do call them home. But, then, you knew that already. Nice attempt to pivot though. Anyway, I plan on having an excellent weekend; may you be the happy recipient of one as well. |
|

NADA, to ever comment on the troops. NONE! You and yours, "loathe" the military, you and yours, call them "baby killers", if given the opportunity, you and yours would spit on them, and you and yours would behave just as that "she monster", that supreme fool of fools, did the other night, to Donald Rumsfeld and his wife, as they were walking into a gathering. That "she monster" and you, have the same fanatical, rabid, contemptible, miserable, disgusting, attitude toward the men and women in the United States Military. If they all died tomorrow, you and yours would only care to the extent, that it could be used to further your political ends. I'm sick to death, hearing you and yours, feigning disgust at battlefield casualties. You and yours hate the Military, and every thing they do, and stand for. Ya' got NO right to ever talk about them, in any context. And if that ain't enough, then you and yours got blood all over your hands, because you and yours sees nothin' wrong with the wholesale slaughter of 60,000,000 babies killed over the last 37 years. Excuse me, i just don't buy, all this "righteous indignation" that you and yours are always so very, very, quick to exhibit, and very good at putting it on display for all to see. Just, STICK IT, and ya' know where, too, don't cha'! |
|
(yawn.)
That's it, crawl on back to your crypt.
What a retard. |
|
"Molly" AKA rachel/lorraineanne/etc is not human.
It's a Liberal monster.
An ACORN troll.
A sociopath.
You can't reason with it.
It doesn't feel love. It can only hate.
|
|
They're Obama's troops now, so stop whining. No more "Bush's war". Obama is President. Obama is President. Obama is Commander In Chief. It's Obama's war. Obama's war.
BY the way, how's that whole "closing Gitmo" thing doing?
Looks like Obama wrote another check his sorry Liberal butt couldn't cash, huh? |
|
|
Trouble is, wulfie, the bush policies are going to dog your Party for YEARS to come, and affect our troops every. single. day. While you'd LoOvVeeE to pretend now that Bush is safely locked away in Texas and Cheney's in his "I'm innocent!!" deaththroes before being frogmarched, that the world will somehow transfer your Party's horrific policies onto Obama. Haahahahahah! We will remind you every day, every hour, every minute for years to come, of just how badly your guys screwed up this country. Count on it. By the way, have a good weekend :) |
|
|
These people are fighting to give you the right to be stupid!Now I know you are going to spew the old hate Bush unnecessary war talking points but the fact is anywhere are people are fighting they are drawing a line in the sand and sending a message to our enemies that we are willing to fight for our principles.Why else would Obama send more troops into Afghanistan if he didn't believe that? |
|
|
posting that - made my day. |
|
"Enough of this war of lies. Enough of bush's horrific deception."
The evil Bush/Hitler/Chimp isn't in office any more. Alas, as you may have heard, the leftists control the House, the Senate, and the White House (Supreme Court under construction). If you don't want any more blood for oil, lies, torture, or profiteering, talk to your boy, O, about it. Why he continues to wage for these things we can only guess. |
|
|
hope we get our troops home soon. |
|
|
I need some more kleenex too. |
|
|
Enough of this war of lies. Enough of bush's horrific deception. Make every one of these soldier's families light up like this one with the arrival of their loved one, home safe and sound. No more blood for oil. No more lies, torture and war profiteering. |
