A Letter To The Troops;

John Kerry Is An American Embarrassment!

I'm sure by now everyone knows about John Kerry's ignorant, degrading, and stupid comments about the troops serving in Iraq.

Since his, " ... If you can't navigate through the educational system in America, you'll end up in Iraq," comment on October 31st, Kerry's political popularity doesn't even register as a blip on the "2008 Democratic Hopefuls" screen.

In my humble opinion, Kerry should disappear with his millions (and his wife's ga-zillions) and just go away forever. 

But noooooooo,  what does Kerry do? He decides to visit the troops in Iraq and wants to apologize! (he thinks we'll all vote for him if we see him in photo's with the troops .... what an asshole!) When I heard he was going to Iraq to waste everyboody's time and money yesterday morning, I blew a gasket! That sleazy Son Of A Bitch is now going to pose with a few of our awesome troops to show how much they "really love him." He is going to USE our men and women for his personal and political gain. Not that our great troops have anything more important to do!!!!!! (Lock and load troops, Kerry's coming! hahahaha payback is a bitch Johnny boy.)

But seriously folks, I am appealing to the men and women of our great Armed Forces. Please don't be fooled and used by John Kerry. He insulted every man and woman who is serving and who has served in Iraq. Now, he wants to use you all for his gain and his gain only! John Kerry is loser who can't and won't lose gracefully.

Please remember all the Gold Star Mom's and Dad's who have been insulted by Kerry's ridicules comments. Please help make this another one of the worst decision of Kerry's "soon to be over" political career.

I received an email today from Debbie Argel Bastian who's son, Capt. Derek Argel, USAF was killed in action on Memorial Day 2005.

Debbie Writes;

Dear Joe,

I have just posted to all of the troops I have addresses for in the field, asking them NOT to pose with John Kerry during his photo op tour to Iraq.

I have just returned from Iraq myself on a trip to support the troops. Each one of the troops I talked with had no respect or regard for this man. I have written him two letters expressing my disdain for him. I asked for him to step down as well. He is no longer a Senator to my family. Mr. Kerry is on a self-serving mission for photo ops with our troops. I have asked the commanders I am in touch with, not to force their troops to pose with this man. I would appreciate you posting this message.

Thank you,

Debbie Argel Bastian

Debbie will appear on Neil Cavuto's show tomorrow afternoon on FOX NEWS (national TV from NYC).

To Debbie, may God bless you and your family and thank you from the bottom of my families heart for the gift of your son Derek. We all sleep in peace because of men and women like Derek.

      DEB,

      My brother and dear friend Joe Cantafio contacted me. I read your letter and I want to thank you on behalf of all those who I served with at Ground Zero and my brothers lost on 911. I was a firefighter and was proud to serve under our President.

      My son, age 16 at the time of the attacks, decided that he would put off his life long dream to become a firefighter in NY and joined the Marines. I couldn’t have been more proud of him. As I look back, I see these brave souls and what they meant to me and our great nation. Those like Kerry don’t deserve to shine your son’s shoes! Your son is a true hero in every sense of the word. Our brave soldiers took the battle to these animals and they continue to do the right thing in spite of horrible pressure by a treasonous media. My heart breaks for you at the loss of your beautiful son. Words that I can say, even from the heart could never replace the loss you must feel. All I can say is that this country and our world is a better place because of your son and his sacrifice.

      Please give my love to my good friend Neil Cavuto who I have appeared with several times. Let him know Cousin Vinny Forras gives him a big hug and thanks him for covering IMPORTANT stories such as this one.

      Should you ever need to talk please don’t hesitate to write or call. It would be my great honor to meet you and your family to thank you personally.

      God’s speed and may God bless you and yours forever and a day....

      Debbie,

      I would like to thank you as well. Your son Derek has helped to preserve a treasure that so many in this world wish they had, and that is freedom. Freedom for women to speak their views without the threat of being sent to the rape rooms, freedom to express ones displeasure with our governing bodies, and freedom to practice whatever religion one chooses. Those are powerful rights given to us by men like your son Derek. Everything we enjoy in this great country is because of our brave warriors past and present, here and gone, who stood up to tyranny and oppression and did what was humane and right. No politician, president, or preacher gave us our freedom, men like Derek did. My brother is a serving United States Marine and I couldn't be more proud of what he does for me, and how he handles himself while doing it. I can never fully express my deepest thanks to you and your son for the sacrifices you all have made. I only pray to God for more brave men and women like Derek who will protect this great country, and the people here... who call it home. Your son Derek will never be forgotten, I assure you of that.

      Thank you also Debbie for taking time out of your life to show our troops how much you care about them by visiting them in Iraq. I don't want to get too deep into John Kerry here, he's not worth it. But if you want to really know my opinion on the man, ask Joe to send you one of my past comments when this all broke out. John Kerry doesn't really understand the treason he committed to our troops, and he never will. Political gain is all that is on his mind. Once again he will try to use our brave heroes for his own personal gain. Sounds kinda familiar, I think he has done this before. This time he crossed the line, and our troops know it. He will wish that he never went to Iraq. I don't see many bright pictures in his future.

      Take care Debbie and Thank you again.

      God Bless you and your family.

      Dear Vincent,

      What a kind and loving letter. Thank you for all that you do. I often tell people that Derek's heart and soul went to war on 9-11. I thank you and your son for your service. As the daughter of a carreer marine and navy nurse, I grew up with the knowledge that some are born with the will and bravery to serve in dangerous jobs as our protectors. My Derek was one of those people. He made the decision in the 5th grade that he would attend a service academy, and would serve in special ops.

      I can't express what your letter means to me. This is a difficult time, and I live in comfort thanks to people like yourself who are willing to give their all.

      Much love and thanks,

      Debbie

      Hi Joe!

      I just shot Debbie an email after reading today's blog (I hate that word "blog" as well).

      Don't get me started on Kerry! ... Well, you already have! He is a worthless piece of shit that can't' take back what came out of his mouth. He is an idiot without a brain. I take offense as he thinks he now can correct the damage he has done.

      My son-in-law Manny gave up an outstanding career to protect his country and for him to insinuate every member who joined one of the branches of the Armed Forces is an uneducated low life appalls me!
