    Please take a moment and pause to remember those many troops that paid the ultimate sacrifice of the beaches of Normandy 63 years ago today. Never forget what they were fighting against, and how their sacrifice saved the world from Hitler and the Nazis.

    Now that's something worthy, to remember. I think we honor them, by thinking how terrible war is, and advocating peace, by not blindly following leaders, no matter who, and that war should always be a last resort.

    We should remember them by, holding leaders accountable to tell the truth, and if they use lies to mobilize armies for aggression, we should give them a fair trial and meet out appropiate punishment, for thier abuse of power. If we don't then they died in vain if we continue to let the rhetoric of leaders preach our young men into the battlefield, to serve the causes of the super rich, and imperialistic leaders.

    The opening scenes to saving "Private Ryan", which gives pause to the strength and courage that soldiers gave on that day...on any day they are called upon.

    Frankie, somehow I knew you would not be able to simply pause and remember the sacrifice of those that died to protect your right to spout such utter nonsense.

    I watched it on the History most of the afternoon.I felt proud of all our guys and gals and also to know my Dad was in that war, however, he was in Guadacanal, which was also a real hotbed.

    A self-contradictory statment, and a good example of why leftists frighten me more than conservatives.

    Is your hatred of some people so overwhelming that there is nothing that anybody says or does that you can't twist into a chance to spread bile?
