Someone finally stepped up to the plate and said it.

I concur

You mean Michael Jackson died? When? d@mn, why didn't someone tell me?

It's sickening to see all the praise and media coverage that's been given to the pedophile.

What a creep! JMO

He isen't a pedophile, he gave those parents $40 mil cause he liked them.

Okay, I need to rant.

After listening to all the coverage of the death of Michael Jackson last week, I figured this guy deserved a little more "coverage"!!!
Ed Freeman
You're a 19 year old kid. You're critically wounded, and dying in the jungle in the Ia Drang Valley , 11-14-1965, LZ X-ray, Vietnam . Your infantry unit is outnumbered 8–1, and the enemy fire is so intense, from 100 or 200 yards away, that your own Infantry Commander has ordered the MediVac helicopters to stop coming in.
You're lying there, listening to the enemy machine guns, and you know you're not getting out. Your family is half way around the world—12,000 miles away—and you'll never see them again. As the world starts to fade in and out, you know this is the day.
Then, over the machine gun noise, you faintly hear that sound of helicopter, and you look up to see an un-armed Huey, but it doesn't seem real, because no Medi-Vac markings are on it.
Ed Freeman is coming for you. He's not Medi-Vac, so it's not his job, but he's flying his Huey down into the machine gun fire, after the Medi-Vacs were ordered not to come.
He's coming anyway.
And he drops it in, and sits there in the machine gun fire, as they load 2 or 3 of you on board.
Then he flies you up and out through the gunfire, to the doctors and nurses.
And, he kept coming back…13 more times…and took about 30 of you and your buddies out, who would never have gotten out.
Medal of Honor Recipient, Ed Freeman, died Wednesday, March 25th, 2009 at the age of 80, in Boise , ID …May God rest his soul.

Medal of Honor Winner
Ed Freeman!
Since the Media didn't give him the coverage he deserves send this to every American you know.
THANKS AGAIN ED FOR WHAT YOU DID FOR OUR COUNTRY.

Wow, Spare... Leave that post here but post ya another copy in its own thread to give it the attention it needs. THen we can link it on our facebook pages.

The reason we are in the shape we are in, is that nobody is paying attention to the important things around us(like why the dollar is tanking, Congress increasing our taxes daily, troops not allowed to kill the bad guys without permission, ect...) Everyone is to caught up in a pervert dieing, or another movie star drunk in public. Or how we can inprove the lives of some varmit in a swamp somewhere. I used to think I wouldn't live long enough to see the demise of America, but now I believe I'll be here for it all.

We just have to pray this never happens.

No doubt...What a
