Some Truth The "Unbiased" Media Doesn't See Fit To Report

WHAT SENATOR JOHN GLENN SAID :
Things that make you think a little:There were 39 combat related killings in Iraq in January.In the fair city of Detroit there were 35 murders in themonth 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'thave started this war, state the following:
a. FDR led us into World War II.b. Germany never attacked us; Japan did.
>From 1941-1945, 450,000 lives were lost .an average of 112,500 per year.c. Truman 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.d. John F. Kennedy started the Vietnam conflict in 1962.Vietnam never attacked us.e. Johnson turned Vietnam into a quagmire.
>From 1965-1975, 58,000 lives were lost ..an average of 5,800 per year.f. Clinton 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 threetimes by Sudan and did nothing. Osama has attacked us onmultiple occasions.
g. In the years since terrorists attacked us, President Bushhas liberated two countries, crushed the Taliban, crippledal-Qaida, put nuclear inspectors in Libya , Iran , and NorthKorea without firing a shot, and captured a terrorist whoslaughtered 300,000 of his own people.The Democrats are complainingabout how long the war is taking.
But ..It took less time to take Iraq than it took Janet Renoto take the Branch Davidian compound.That was a 51-day operation.
We've been looking for evidence for chemical weaponsin Iraq for less time than it took Hillary Clinton to findthe Rose Law Firm billing records.It took less time for the 3rd Infantry Division and theMarines to destroy the Medina Republican Guardthan it took Ted Kennedy to call the police after hisOldsmobile sank at Chappaquiddick
It took less time to take Iraq than it tookto count the votes in Florida !!!!Our Commander-In-Chief is doing a GREAT JOB!The Military morale is high!The biased media hopes we are too ignorantto realize the facts.

But Wait. There's more!
JOHN GLENN (ON THE SENATE FLOOR)Mon, 26 Jan 2004 11:13Some people still don't understand why military personneldo what they do for a living. This exchange betweenSenators John Glenn and Senator Howard Metzenbaumis worth reading. Not only is it a pretty impressiveimpromptu speech, but it's also a good example of oneman's explanation of why men and women in the armedservices do what they do for a living.This IS a typical, though sad, example of whatsome who have never served think of the military.Senator Metzenbaum (speaking to Senator Glenn):"How can you run for Senatewhen 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 differentoccasions. I was in the space program. It wasn't mycheckbook, Howard, it was my life on the line. It wasnot a nine-to-five job, where I took my tie off to take thedaily cash receipts to the bank.""I ask you to go with me ... as I went the other day...to a veterans' 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 orphansof Ed White, Gus Grissom, and Roger Chaffee...and you look those kids in the eye and tell themthat their DADS didn't hold a job.You go with me on Memorial Day, and you stand inArlington National Cemetery , where I have more friendsburied than I'd like to remember, and you watchthose waving flagsYou stand there, and you think about this nation,and you tell ME that those people didn't have a job?What about you?"
For those who don't remember ..During W.W.II, Howard Metzenbaum was an attorneyrepresenting the Communist Party in the USA .Now he's a Senator!
