    How is supporting our troops a good cause? Hopefully they all get shot before they get home and breed with their mindless/violent genes.

    Perez,
    You so very rarely see any support for our troops come out of Hollywood. As the wife of a military man, thank you for posting this and bringing the plight of these Americans to your readers. Another great program is the Wounded Warrior project. Check it out.

    Thank you for posting this site Perez. No matter what our differences are we have to come together to support the men and women who have made such sacrifices. I hope that there is a great response.

    The troops that are currently fighting have never once fought for OUR freedom. They have spent a trillion dollars creating plenty of new enemies for our country, but no, they are not fighting for our freedom.

    what we can do is vote for clinton or obama…cause either one of them would do their best to bring our troops back home!! fuckin racist mccain will only send more troops over, and start another fuckin war and put our country in more debt! VOTE FOR CLINTON or OBAMA to avoid having to go through shit having to worry about the troops over there or whether our brothers will be sent over!!! FUCK war! FUCk BUSH and all his supporters! FUCK mccain!!!

    This is a GREAT Cause.. I am an Army Wife and I know first hand how hard it is on these soldiers that come back wounded or severely injured. It's hard for them to get their lives back together. This is a such a great cause.. help those who help you.. PLEASE DONATE!!

    David is right. He is an ubermensch who thinks for himself. The rest of you are conformists and sheep.

    They aren't fighting for anyone's freedom… and many aren't even intelligent enough to switch to the place where the real money is– mercenary work for the private sector.

  31. woody says – reply to this

    re; jez… well yeah we're idots. also, having been a fan of perez for a while…. the prospect of being first appealed to me greatly and in seeing there were no comments… I found my opportunity. You are a tard in general.

    However, i did not consider the articles content.

    also, we might as well try and help our troops since they're already out there! The truth is we should have never have gone to war in the first place! However, mistakes were made and weapons of mass destruction were proposed. And after all these allegations were proved to be false, it was too late as we had already began war and meddled.

    It is now far too inappropriate to remove our troops, whether we like it or not due to the fact we have created a war zone. We can't just create a mess and leave! So if you were in agreement with the war or not… that is irrelevant. The point is they're there now so we should show our support. Each individual soldier did not agree to go to war… this was the country's decision and they were merely following orders. Let's not punish the people who are brave enough to risk they're lives for the country. Their aim to protect us… blame the country not our men! Give to this charity to support them. Support our soldiers… not the war.

    Maybe you should of though of that before INVADING an innocent country. Dum asses. your prez should be up on war crimes. He / your pathetic country did 10 times worse things than S. Hussain could of ever done. Ya, I know here comes your pathetic rant….

    Re: david
    Well, that do you expect people to do when you make sweeping generalizations of an entire group of people you don't know? I'm not afraid to tell you that I hope you die a horrible death, because honestly I do. All the people like you who refuse to realize that you can be anti-war without being a total asshole to the people fighting it. Some of them didn't have a choice, they were already enlisted when it started. It wasn't like they could said "Oh sorry sir, I don't want to go."

    So there you have it. I'd love to see you go over there, and get mortared, or shot at, then have the balls to make the assumptions that you do.

    By the way, my daughter says thank you for assuming her Dad is violent, you douchebag.

    pilotsfor911truth.com….its a horrible time to be an american and the war is not for freedom…anyone who thinks knows or preaching that it is…

    all i can say to those who dont know…

    Hey "ME",
    Your a dum ass. Was your country REALLY in jepardy of loosing it's freedom. Give me a break. And as far as "hate in a heart", what about the 1000's of Iraqies that have died or have been displaced, or injured??????? Oh ya, I almost forgot. Your the type of american that only thinks of yourself and your strip of land. You and your kind make me and SOOOOO many others sick. Shut up!

    BRAVO PEREZ!! for posting this. as an army wife whose husband is serving in 12thmonth of 15 month tour it means alot that someone in the entertainment industry is looking out for us!!! it is a worthwhile program that needs to be addressed.

    and to all those haters, post your address here so the mizzle can come and personally kick you in the balls, you pansy yellow c*cksuckers who don't kno what freedom really means.

    These poor folks are dying for a lie.

    Saddam had NOTHING to do with 9/11.

    Iraq had nothing to do with it. There were no WMD's…

    I'll happily support the troops when they're actually defending democracy, and not marching across the Middle East, spreading fascism.

    More than 7,000 people dead from the "false flag operation" that was & is 9-11.

    No wonder the world hates us.

  41. david says – reply to this
    41

    Damnit!!! you already managed to breed. Your daughter should realize that her father is a willing participant in one of the worst genocides in history. Their is no pride in what her daddy is doing. He is a willing accomplice to murder. She should see the shame that her father has brought to this country.

    Without the troops who volunteer to participate. There would be no war. There would be no hundreds of thousands of dead iraqis.

    Your daughter should be ashamed of her father.

    Re: Allison

    and just a reminder to david asshole. not all the troops want to deploy, especially after their 3rd and 4th time out there. do you think alot of our troops joined to alone serve their country? HELL NO! they joined because they and their families needed stability. most of the guys i know hate the fact that they are even over there yet again and don't think their occupation in iraq is even making a difference. they just want to come home to live the life you are lucky to have. i hope you do rot in hell!

    Re: david – YAY DAVID! You managed to get attention. So sad that you have to come on a site and bash real heroes. You're such a fag. You would shit your pants if you would have to go to IRAQ. That's only for real men. So stop insulting the military.

    Re: david
    You know what, I'm done fighting with you on this. Because at the end of the day, you are the type of sick asshole who will be getting whats coming to him.

    As far as my daughter being ashamed of her father, fuck you. You don't her father, me, or any of the people you are so hellbent on defaming.

    Re: MPG

    sorry mpg but it takes a certain type of insanity to willingly go work to blackwater. and most of the guys don't even want to work for them because they are a waste of a mercenary organization.

  46. david says – reply to this
    46

    There is a process of getting out of the military if you don't agree with what they are doing.

    Btw it is called a conscientious objector

    So your excuse for being forced to participate is bullshit.

    Wow… Truly digging what passes for intellectual discourse around here. Thanks for the post, Perez. And for all you soldier haters out there, I can't tell you how grateful I am that you have the right in to trash the fighting men and women of this country, who take a solomn oath to defend the very Constitution that you hide behind while spewing your ignorant venom. Strange how there haven't been any attacks on American soil since 9/11, isn't it?

  50. Married to the Army says – reply to this

    Thank you for posting this! My husband is currently in his 14 month of a 15 month deployment. It has been a hard deployment for his unit and several are recovering from serious injuries sustained in combat. Support has definitely faded the longer the war has gone on. Funny how supportive people were following 9/11 when it was 'cool'…where is everyone now? Bet if there was another attack you would see flags pop back up in people's yards and yellow ribbons on cars. I would love to see more support on your site Perez! You are a huge influence on so many people! Thanks again : ) And for lack of better words to David (who posted our soldiers should be shot) F YOU! My husband is deployed so your ass doesn't get drafted!

  51. Show Respect says – reply to this
    51

    This is a great cause!!!

    Just because you Support the Trrops DOES NOT mean you Support the WAR. They are seperate things. These people were told to go there and do what they do, it is their job. Weather or not you support them, you should respect them. Most of them are in their early 20's and being killed off by suicide bombers and land mines. Can you imagine, and if they dont die, they come back with limbs missing or blind and therfore cannot work to the full capability they once did. Can you even imagin staring death in the face for your country? Once you are Military and go though what they do,then you have a right to tell them they all deserve to die, untill then, when anyone decideds to think that because they are over there figting that they are worthless mineless violent people, think about if it was your brother/son/sister/spouse brought home in the casket. Some of you people are disgusting. I am Canadian and I support MINE and the American troops that are over there, even though the American people wont do ti themselves.

    Re: david – yea like the army just gives out that conscientious objector clause to everyone who says boo about the righteousness of this war?!?! give me a fucking break. get your facts straight before you come here spouting your brand of ignorant bullshit. you don't think our troops know that the military has done them dirty?! oh they do but what else are they supposed to do about it.

    WHY SHOULD ANYBODY DONATE? WHY? THE GOVERNMENT CAN'T AFFORD TO HELP THE PEOPLE THEY WONDED BY SENDING THEM TO A WAR THAT HAS NOTHING TO DO ABOUT PERSERVING FREEDOM…
    .
    I THINK THE AMERICANS FREEDOMS ARE AT RISK BY THEIR OWN COMMUNIST GOVERNMENT.. THE TRUELY FREE COUNTRIES OF THE WORLD SHOULD INVADE AMERICA TO FREE THEM FROM THEIR HITLER LIKE LEADER'S!

    Re: david

    Oh? And have you used it?
    Guess what, that clause is there to make people feel like they have a say in their lives. You actually think they give people that shit? Guess what, they don't. Get your facts straight before you sit there and act like you're intelligent.

    this is rediculous.
    how about living in a country where supporting soldiers is something the government takes responsibility for.
    I am supporting my troops, have you seen that fucking war budget lately…were ALLLL supporting the troops and will be for the next 100 years whether we like it or not. And thanks to that little war we'll be Saudi Arabia and China's BITCH for the next 100 years.
    get over it, supporting the moral of the troops great..giving money? NAH!

  58. david says – reply to this
    58

    The war has been going on for over 5 years. Which means every single person in uniform is out of their first tour of duty. Which means that every single person in Iraq is there by choice. Conscientious objector or not, the troops are now willing participants in murder.

    Why are they in Iraq again?
    Could someone remind me of what Bush said to brainwash you?
    How about your troops that you seem to adore so much, stay home and clean up America.
    What is your country gonna do when the wars over and you REALLY have no money?
    I guess your prez will just make up some more bullshit and then you can all go back off to war and kill more innocent people.

    Fucktards!

    Why is it that the US government, who sent these men & women into harm's way, won't provide for them after they've come home injured (either physically or mentally)? The best estimates are that this war will cost us 1 TRILLION dollars and still there's nothing left for the vets? SHAMEFUL!

  62. simple says – reply to this
    62

    Sayings like, "we don't have to support the war, but we should support our troops", just doesn't make sense.

    I don't support the war,…but I should support people who would go off and make war?

    The only think I truly support is our troops coming home. I don't wish them harm, but I also don't feel like spending more of my money to make up for Bush's mistakes, or the mistakes of military people who chose to follow an ass.

    Bush has gone through our money (taxes), like it was going out of style.

    I'm done.

    As for some soldiers who don't want to be there, hey, they took the money (pay), and they took their chances. You can't put a price on what they do over there? Sure you can, and they (the soldiers), accepted that paycheck.

    All you blind sheep & cattle who keep attacking folks who speak out against the war should instead be challenging Bush, a coward who did whatever he could to not fight for his country, but has no problem throwing US lives away, along with our cash.

    Yeah that David guy is right, They chose to be Murderers… How is that a good thing? He should be ashamed of himself and everyone that would call him friend should be ashamed for not trying to stop him.
