My reply to that with 10-15 people around of all colors and sexes was, "If she don't like it maybe they should ship her butt too iraq and see how she likes it." Then one of the women I work with stated, " she was not proud to be an american." Too that I said, "maybe they should send your butt too Iraq too." I was mad but didn't want to get into it any deeper. So I left it at that.

The next day my boss called me into the office, telling me not to talk about politics or stuff like that anymore because a few of my co-workers were trying to turn that into a racial thing.

IS THAT A BUNCH OF BULL or what eventhough gas prices have got me down, and the govt needs to be put on an allowance I spent 4 yrs in the military, served my country not near as much as plenty of you all here. But now I'm sopposed to be quiet when somebody says there ashamed to be an american. Not gonna happen

what do yall think

I think this belongs on the off topic board... and I SUPPORT YOU.
I am fed up with the people who say they are not proud of this country.
We send our men to die in other countries so that those countries can be free from dictators who kill and murder and they are not proud?
OK, MAYBE we went into Iraq with less than a great plan, but we are better off today and the world is better off without Sadam Hussein in office. I AM PROUD OF THAT. Al Queda WAS IN IRAQ. It was reported widely during the beginning of the war.. and yet OBAMA says they were not there...??
Clinton voted FOR the war, but is against it now because there were no weapons of mass destruction, but there were tyrants literally raping and killing women and childern for pleasure.
The real shame is that we went into Iraq, but did not go into Sudan.
No oil I guess, so no love for the millions being murdered there.
Sudan is where Ossama Bin Laden first killed Americans by the way..
Any way one of you guys who knows the board better please move this to the OFF topic board.
