The troops are over there fighting so high school football can be played!! [View All]

I just saw the most pathetic, jingoistic reason put forth for the war in Iraq in a brief blurb on the morning news.

A high school football coach from some town in Tennessee is deployed to Iraq and he sent a videotaped pep talk to his team for their season opener last night. The report showed the players getting emotional listening to and watching the tape. While I hardly felt the report was newsworthy, I thought it was touching in a corny kind of way.

Then, toward the end of the report they highlighted the team captain giving a tear-drenched pep talk to his teammates saying "He's over there fighting for OUR freedoms, for OUR rights, and so we can go out there and play on Friday nights." :puke: :puke: :puke: :puke:

Wow...I never knew we were over there fighting so young republicans could have the freedom to play football on Friday nights. That young man enlightened me so.
