1. Unfortunately........
all of these folks will probably be spending Thanksgiving in jail. Georgie will want them removed so his family isn't bothered on their holiday. The POS is a selfish little brat and anyone trying to disrupt his "much needed rest" at the pig ranch will pay a price.

I hope he chokes on a Turkey bone. I wouldn't heimlich the son of a bitch, I know that!

2. Good wishes for all these people...
... they're right, and Bush is wrong. If they disturb his Thanksgiving, even a little bit, all the better. This asshole needs his life disturbed at every possible moment. Why should he have any peace when the people he sent to war do not?

3. Amen I Wish I Could Be There!
But I had to come back to Sicily because my four year old was missing me. I had plans to leave Bethesda and join up with Cindy. I am there in SPIRIT! These are the best people in the world and many have lost so damn much!

Disturb the vile little Dauphin. Make the wretched fucker feel some pain.

Happy Thanksgiving Ben, Robert, & Kade!

4. Happy American Thanksgiving
to these fine young men, who have had to pay the neocons' price. We must see to it that we don't treat them like Nam vets. Theirs not to reason why, theirs but to do or die....
