"How grateful I am for their ultimate sacrifice."

Said Dianne Feinstein.

Are you effing kidding me. Grateful? What the hell is wrong with her.

She said that today on This Week.

I can't provide a link or video to this now, I'm sorry.

I just watched the show and needed to vent. Thank you.

of her ilk are living in another dimension. Here's her quote.

FEINSTEIN: Thank you very much, Jonathan. And may I just say, California has lost a lot of our men and women in wars. And I just want to say from position of a senator from California how grateful I am for their ultimate sacrifice.

Problem is, she didn't misspeak. Her, clinton and the rest of them could give a shit about our young people dying as long as they're getting their coffers filled by the mic..

I haven't mastered a lot of things posting on my phone, which is all I have now at the moment.

          and the thought flashed "Hell No" then I read your content and thought I am glad you did not provide a link, lest I go ballistic. Too many lives lost, too many lives broken, this will never end until we refuse to let it continue.

          As a point of reference: This was supposed to stop back then. All the protesting, all that angst, all for naught, 46 years and counting and still we are playing the same tunes.

She went from merely well-to-do to OhMyGosh wealthy once she won election to the Senate. Her hubby suddenly started winning lucrative Pentagon contracts and building up the bank account. So in her twisted way, DINO DiFi IS thanking those who died, for without the warfare which killed them, she couldn't have achieved financial security (from Wikipedia):

In 1980, Feinstein married Richard C. Blum, an investment banker. In 2003, Feinstein was ranked the fifth-wealthiest senator, with an estimated net worth of US$26 million. [Loughlin, Sean; Robert Yoon (June 13, 2003). "Millionaires populate U.S. Senate". CNN. Retrieved May 7, 2007]

By 2005 her net worth had increased to between US$43 million and US$99 million. ["Personal Financial Disclosures Summary: 2005". opensecrets.org. Archived from the original on April 12, 2007. Retrieved May 9, 2007]

Her 347-page financial-disclosure statement ["Senate Public Financial Disclosure Report for Senator Dianne Feinstein" (PDF). U.S. Senate/Washington Post. June 9, 2006. Retrieved May 7, 200] – characterized by the San Francisco Chronicle as "nearly the size of a phone book" – draws clear lines between her assets and those of her husband, with many of her assets in blind trusts. [Coile, Zachary (June 26, 2004). "Bay lawmakers among wealthiest". San Francisco Chronicle. Retrieved May 7, 2007]

I always thought her votes with the Bush Regime has a little something to do with her hubby making beaucoup bucks from wars. Okay, a big something to do with it. She needs to be replaced.

about Isaac.

Oh wait, no he didn't because he figured out that sacrificing people for no purpose was idiotic. That's a fucking HINT, Ms. Feinstein. Course I know that you have always profited from murders so you wouldn't learn that lesson.

I am heartbroken for their loss.
Each year I watch the Memorial Day concert twice, back to back. I cry on and off for three hours.
The one thing I miss over yonder is IGTNT.
My son is in the Army. I doubt DiFi has a son or daughter in the service. She will never know the fear and worry. Words are cheap.

devolved into a mojo seeking enterprise. I always recommended the diaries, but only very rarely commented in them. It felt wrong to me to get mojo for such a thing. There should have been a "no mojo" rule or something like that in the diaries.

They were sacrificed. There is a difference. That they were willing to go into harms way when their country called is worthy of respect, but that does not mean that the people that sent them or the reason they were sent are honorable. They died because Somebody Fucked Up. More often than not, somebody who will never see the consquences of the situation they made.

Honor the soldiers, but don't forget to curse those who set them to fight.

They say that there's a broken light for every heart on Broadway
They say that life's a game and then they take the board away
They give you masks and costumes and an outline of the story
And leave you all to improvise their vicious cabaret-- A. Moore

To their faces, if possible!

I want to know who the men in the shadows are
I want to hear somebody asking them why
They can be counted on to tell us who our enemies are
But they're never the ones to fight or to die
