Well said, Michael.

I note that UNCG never had a problem accepting ex-military GI Bill payments.

Thanks for the thoughtful letter.

Just when I'm beginning to think the leftists have won and America's future is where the likes of algore and Queen Pelosi rule over a servile population, here comes a message from a youth (I assume) that rekindles my spirit.

Thanks Michael.

UNCG joins countless academic institutions across the country in trying to convince America's youth the the US is the REAL threat to world peace and those who died in it's service are not to be honored, but forgotten.

Well said, Mr. Garrett.
And thanks for your appreciation of the sacrifices of our veterans.

Keep hope Neo. I was well on my way to becoming brainwashed in liberalism through my first 3 years of college. Then I was fortunate enough to spend my senior year in France and get a good taste of socialism. Unfortunately, most college students will not get this opportunity, however there are more folks like Micheal around. They just aren't as vocal as their counterparts on the opposite side.

One of our church members has been in Tikrit for the last year serving in the Army Guard. I saw him this morning as he is on a three week respite from Iraq. He is a gunner serving to protect supply truck convoys, not an easy or safe job. We thanked him for his service. His reply, "No need for thanks, it's my job".

Compare him to an American family travelling to Europe with Canadian flag patches on their backpacks.

Michael, thanks for the LTTE regarding this matter.

However, I would note that it was probably not the decision of the Chancellor or Board of Trustees. Rather, it is not a State mandated holiday. So, before all of the blame is laid at the feet of the Chancellor and BOT, make sure that is where it all belongs.

Shalom

What does this type drivel do to advance dialogue:

"UNCG joins countless academic institutions across the country in trying to convince America's youth the the US is the REAL threat to world peace and those who died in it's service are not to be honored, but forgotten."

ANSWER: NOTHING

This response is what happens when Archie Bunker meets Pa Kettle. :)

Dan,
Tell us again, how have YOU served your country in the military? Nuff said.

Uh...THE LIBERAL CANADIAN,
The ltte topic was UNCG squelching the Memorial Day observance. Surely even such a feeble mind as yours can make that connection, no?

BTW, how's that Canadian flag flap workin' out for ya? Wanna make a retraction?

Oh one more thing THE LIBERAL CANADIAN, one doesn't have to be an active or even a former member of the military to serve and support their country. It's the twats that sew Canadian flag patches to their and their kids' backpacks that I wouldn't trust in an outhouse with a muzzle on.

TM,
You are not only a racist, but a dispicable person hiding behind the flag. Do you EVER read your posts before hitting the button?

Hiding behind the flag???? HIDING BEHIND THE FLAG?????????????????????????????????????

THE LIBERAL CANADIAN, do YOU ever read your posts before hitting the button?

Hiding behind which flag? Canadian or American?

"You are not only a racist..."

Again... I am reminded of Friedrich Nietzsche.

"If you gaze long into an abyss, the abyss will gaze back into you."

Projection is a component of many mental disorders. Perhaps someone forgot their medication today.

Does playing in the pool, getting drunk and fishing, or sleeping off the previous night's hangover qualify as recognizing "the service and sacrifice of the military"? That's mostly what I saw over the weekend.

Darryl,

Memorial Day is a state holiday.

http://www.osp.state.nc.us/holsched.htm

Interesting that UNCG is also opened on Veteran's Day which is also a State Holiday.

I see no one thought to see if this was in fact NOT a State holiday and therefore, State entities were open for business as usual.

Shalom

Once again, neocon and Dan make my points, by their own posts. You really can't make that up. :)

Danny,
I think LastVOR put you in your place on another thread with:

"Its one thing to do something to avoid ill feelings from others or similar reasons, however, you might find it interesting to know that all military and DOD civilian personnel must take anti-terrorist training once a year. Most of this is geared to staying alert and taking safeguards while traveling. The training stresses than when traveling to Europe of other overseas places, never wear or have anything that might identify you as an American and make you a terrorist target. They specifically mention flags and include stuff from sports teams and anything else that might single you out, including uniforms, if off duty. As you well know, most European nations have large immigrant populations with many from countries where terrorists originate."

His post should put you and your small minded friend to rest for awhile.

In fact, you might want to add LastVOR's post to your...your "ARCHIVE". LOL!

In searching through the Summer 2007 Session calendar's of the UNC System Schools, I found that Applachian State University did not observe Memorial Day as a holiday. It seems that the writer of this LTTE did not research before writing. I guess that point (researching) is no longer taught in institutions of higher learning. How sad.

Shalom

I already read VOR's post Demon Deacon. I didn't see anything that recommends hiding behind the Canadian flag when traveling in Europe.

I'm still dying to know how you explained to the kids that they are to pretend to be Canadian. Can you tell me? Please?

N'oubliez-pas les enfants, nous sommes Canadiens, pas Américains.

Danny,
You were sucked into neo's ignorant rant and you fell for it hook, line, and sinker. If you choose to lie down with dogs, you'll always come up with fleas. For once, just admit how ignorant you were to go down that road and maybe you can salvage a tad bit of self respect.

You might want to add LastVOR's post to your "ARCHIVE" as it will come in handy whenever you get the urge to follow the Little Kitty next time. If you didn't get it the first time, here it is again:

"Its one thing to do something to avoid ill feelings from others or similar reasons, however, you might find it interesting to know that all military and DOD civilian personnel must take anti-terrorist training once a year.

As you well know, most European nations have large immigrant populations with many from countries where terrorists originate."

Danny, you really should try to shake loose from Little Kitty. He's no role model.

I know VOR gave you a ray of hope since you've copied his post twice in a row, but I STILL didn't see anything in his/her post that recommends Americans lie and pretend to be Canadians when traveling to Europe. Maybe copy it a third time and it will appear? BTW, do you work for the military or DOD? Wife & kids too?

I wouldn't consider someone who lies about his country of origin, especially implicating impressionable children, a role model sir.

Yep, those Frenchies sure are a scary lot. One time one of them snubbed his nose at me. I was terrified.

Dan,
Bless your heart. Your immaturity is only eclipsed by your ignorance and narcissism. I suppose it stung to be dressed down by facts, but it obviously has had no effect on your arrogance.

Danny,
Once again, if you've not already added to your extensive....ARCHIVES! LOL!

Dan,
Facts always throw you for a loop. As I said, water seeks its level. :)

Demon Deacon, Hey you did copy VORs post a THIRD time as I requested, congrats. I still didn't see anything the recommends Americans lie and pretend to be Canadians. How about a fourth time? Maybe your kids can help.

Since you are so insistent on constantly repeating VORs post as your justification for posing as a Canadian, please consider VOR's later post from the same thread:

Dan - The Pentagon didn't advise to lie or deny but to be discreet in dress and appearance and when talking to strangers. I hope you never have a problem and hopefully to risk is small. Of course, you're right that if you can't talk to people and share stories about your homeland it wouldn't be much point going. Very different world we live in since 9/11.

Posted by LastVOR [TypeKey Profile Page] | June 4, 2007 5:51 PM

I guess you didn't read that one. Official Pentagon rules state no lying or denying. Listen to your government.

Did you talk to Frenchies and Brits and tell them about your hometown in Canada?

Spin it anyway you want, it's better each time.

Remember kids, we went to Bridgewater Nova Scotia last summer, NOT Bridgeport, CT.

*PANT,PANT,PANT*... "Read VOR's post". *PANT, PANT, PANT*... "Read VOR's post".

"See, I'm not a coward...READ vor'S POST"! *PANT PANT PANT*. "See, the government is encouraging everyone to sew Canadian flag patches to their backpacks...*PANT PANT PANT*...Read VOR's post!

Pitiful.

And pathetic.

Be sure to remember now children, that's 'Parkville'...not 'Kernersville'.

Ahhhh, c'mon Neo, he only posted the exact same post three times in a row. I was hoping for a fourth, now you spoiled it.

Problem was he forgot to read the later VOR post, the Pentagon doesn't advise lying or denying being American and he/she said what is the point in traveling abroad if you have to do either.

I still want to know how it was explained to the kids that they were Canadian instead of American. My six year old would tell me I'm nuts if I started sewing Canadian patches on his backpack. I also wonder if the wife protested and was overruled.

Remember kids, it's Split Lake Manitoba NOT Salt Lake City, Utah. Hell them evil conservative Mormons like Mitt Romney come from Utah. After all, they both have lakes non?

The pentagon advising military personnel (and civilians) not to wear uniforms, flags, etc. while off base in any foreign country is NOTHING NEW. This is just plain common sense. It was (is, I presume) one of the first things they are lectured on when arriving at a overseas base. This has been going on for decades...not just because "George W. has squandered the good will his father had built up". What a crock of $#!+. The radicals in the foreign countries where the American military are deployed suffer from the same BDS that American liberals harbor. Theirs are ADS (American Derangement Syndrome) and it has been spreading since the new generation of radicals worldwide have not been taught what Americans did for them in the previous wars. They are no different than American liberals in that their hatred for the military is increased ten fold when there is a republican in the WH.

There is NO comparison to this policy and THE LIBERAL CANADIAN sewing Canadian flag patches to his backpacks and exposing his cowardice to his family.

This just highlights the ignorance of such matters on the part of liberals.

******************************************

LastVOR,
How does it feel to have one's leg humped?

Danny,
Seems I remember a certain "little" person continually posting a comment from Denzien...last count, was SIX times.

Your hypocrisy is about to overrun your immaturity AND your narcissism. You are a funny little man who has joined forces with the an overt racist and otherwise dispicable human. How's that working out for ya? LOL!

Oh, since reading is not your forte', here's the post one more time:

"Its one thing to do something to avoid ill feelings from others or similar reasons, however, you might find it interesting to know that all military and DOD civilian personnel must take anti-terrorist training once a year. Most of this is geared to staying alert and taking safeguards while traveling.

Dan, you could really pull yourself out of the tar baby if you'd just admit when you've been duped (by Kitty) and then start to R-E-A-D. BTW, the kitty just loves having you for cover...it makes him feel important too! :)

Four times, that's some impressive cut & paste skills. I read it yet again and I sttiillll can't find anything in VORs post that advises sewing Canadian flags on backpacks and denying who you are, much less having children do the same. Can you find it for me puleeezze?

If VOR is now the resident expert then don't forget his/her other post. Bottom line from that one: "Of course, you're right that if you can't talk to people and share stories about your homeland it wouldn't be much point going."

I don't see a tar baby, what I see is a hole that you started digging on March 20 at 9:47 am. With each post you dig deeper, now to the point that that famous quote has defined who you are in perpetuity. Your best bet is to quit digging.

Frankly it's quite entertaining to watch, plus I'm learning some Canadian geography to boot:

Remember kids, your best friends moved to Youngstown, A-L-B-E-R-T-A, NOT Youngstown O-H-I-O.

Note there is no response to the facts I posted about military personnel and civilian being advised for decades about ventures off base while in foreign lands, just more drivel from THE LIBERAL CANADIAN that says nothing. But then when you have the facts fly in your face of your distorted view, what else can a fool do?

THE LIBERAL CANADIAN, you never responded to my question on the 'globull warming' thread...what percentage of the shallow gene pool humps LastVOR's leg?

Also, how's that Canadian flag flap workin' out for ya? Ready to make a retraction yet? I suggest you change your moniker again and try to keep the mouth shut next time.

No need arguing with two mental midgets. I'm off to a book signing in Chapel Hill this afternoon--you know Dan, where you "CLAIMED" to have studied, until you "outed" yourself on another thread saying you did most of your study at UNCG.

Just carry on with TM, as he loves you.

No need arguing with someone when the facts do not square with your argument either, eh THE LIBERAL CANADIAN?
Also, you would know all about "outing' one's self, huh THE LIBERAL CANADIAN?

"Listen closely now kids... that's Manitoba, not Manteo"...

", where you "CLAIMED" to have studied, until you "outed" yourself on another thread saying you did most of your study at UNCG."

Neo, you know facts don't matter to Demon Deacon, but it's fun to consistently prove him wrong as I will here.

Outed myself? I spent first two years at UNC-G, one year at UNC-CH, one year in France in a UNC-CH sponsored program (was considered a UNC-CH student that year), and one more semester at UNC-CH. Most importantly, my diploma hanging above my head reads "The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill."

In total I spent 4 semesters as a UNC-G student and 5 semesters as a UNC-CH student. Here is a hint for Demon Deacon, 5 is greater than 4.

I really don't even know why it matters to him where I went to college. Maybe he doesn't like UNC-G, hell I don't know and I don't care.

But for someone to bring up my college education as a means to switch the subject from the cowardice of the Canadian flag flap reveals desperation. Yeah, he did "out himself" on March 20 & I bet he wishes he had never revealed his true spots.

Don't forget kids, make sure you say "eh" instead of "ya'll"

Danny,
You have proven your ignorance beyond a shadow of a doubt. Joining up with Little Kitty shows just how desperate you are for attention--that is really sad. Your narcissism wins out over your hypocrisy, and is probably the cause.
Seriously, you do need to read more.
Unlike you, I am not going to wallow on the ground with dogs. I'll leave you and your "buddy" to wimper back under the porch.

Never mind the facts Demon Deacon. Seriously, you need to look at facts more before making statements. I notice you didn't refute my facts about my education, rather the same ol BS about reading, blah, blah.

That will not change the fact of your March 20 post, it is there forever and you cannot deny it. Spin it anyway you want, but it is what it is.

Thanks for waving the white flag Demon Deacon. I'd wallow in the ground with a dog anyday before hanging out with a coward.

TLC,

Alligator's mouth and a hummingbird's ass.

" I'll leave you and your "buddy" to wimper [sic] back under the porch."...

Translation: I'm tucking my tail under my hummingbird ass and getting the f*** outta Dodge because I can't take the heat of the truth.

And yet, the facts of the issue of this LTTE that have been posted have yet to be refuted. Man I love it when a plan comes together!

Shalom

Me thinks sweet pea is cross threaded.

Poor thing...

Darryl,
Those two just love "playing" together. Remind me of my neighbor's dogs.

Oh, Danny. You just can't stand the fact you are such a woefully inept human being. Glad you found a friend though. Neocon and you are PERFECT for each other. One smart (neo), and one stupid.
