Default Meet Joe the Vet

This is powerful!

www.youtube.com/watch?v=TG4fe9GIWS8
Apparently, You Tube is not showing this one any more. I found this one on Fox News website. In the video, Joe, a vet, is standing in a park, next to an American Flag. He says that the Iraqis are no different from us. They wish to be free of tyranny and terrorists, and wish to prosper, like us. He says the war is right, and it would be disrespectful to all vets who have lost their lives, and render their efforts meaningless if we turn tail and run from Iraq now. He implores people to vote for McCain; then he turns and walks away. He only has one leg, and a prosthethis.

Actual video. You can see it on both Fox and CNN. It brought down dozens of the You Tube servers, as the most watched video in their history; they pulled it to keep the servers up.

You Tube is owned by Google -- and they're to the Left of Castro. There are thousands of examples of how they manipulate their searches to the left.

You have to take any media with a grain of salt. Everyone has an agenda -- you, me, them.

I believe Hannity said the video had been bought by a group that was going to start running TV adds with it.

I wouldn't be surprised if that video does not end up in a vote for juanny ad. It'll get you.
