Each of the 700 in attendance were card carrying Bush supporters who are in awe of the giant spotted urethra and think he can do no wrong.

Mezro...include some of those guys who are stuck in Iraq on a stop-loss and you'll see a realistic reaction to this fucking protein hose...

Thanks Mez... ..it's good to be back.

But, tomorrow I'm leaving on a week long trip to a family reunion in South Dakota of all places, so I won't be seeing you again until the 11th of July. Hold down the fort and keep up the fight! :D

Per the topic-

Have any of you guys ever been in the military? If there was no applause, it was because it was discussed beforehand not to. As mentioned before, it was not a rally. This is how the military works. Each of the 700 in attendance were briefed on expected conduct prior to the speach.

As the article states, Bush had allocated 40 minutes for the speech and only used 28 of them. Personally I think the reaction to his speech was not what he expected. I can't imagine Dubya telling anyone that he doesn't want to hear any applause, especially at this point in time.

Who wants t2o applaud their own deaths? huh

Unlike WWII these are the most educated, informed troops we've ever fielded since Vietnam.

"Yea, yea, let's die for lies!" That welcome didn't happen.

REMEMBER SADAT
