My Dear Spaniards,

It is with shock, anger, and sadness that I find myself writing to you. My heart hurts for the Spanish people today, and my prayers and best wishes are yours. The tragedy of mangled train coaches is the failure of President Bush to be honest with the Spanish people, and the world.

President Bush does not speak for me, and I tell you that it is on the innocent spilled blood of the slain Spanish that Bush will slip and fall. It is my fervent hope that his fall shakes this world, and the people of the United States into waking up to the lies and crimes of the Bush administration. There is no reason Spain should pay such a price, and I am humbled by her resolve.

With my sincerest sympathies,
Wally Wilson
Seattle, WA, USA

Yeah, Bush caused the 3/11 attacks. Idiot.
France Receives Threat From Islamists

I didn't see France supporting us. What's your excuse there, Einstein?

I'm sorry MadridMan, people that don't research and buy into the first thing they hear just, quite frankly, piss me off.

There are likely many things that you haven't yet seen in this world.

1. I'm not an idiot.
2. I didn't "buy into" anything.
3. I have done my research.
4. I'm entitled to my opinion.
5. I'm entitled to let the people of Spain know how I feel.

I thank you for taking the time to share your _Opinion_.

YOU blamed Bush for what happened to the Spaniards. I would like an explanation....if you can provide me with one. I have already posted something about France getting terroristic threats even though they didn't support us. Can you elaborate on what YOU would do...oh wise one?

Yes, blaming Bush OR Aznar for the attacks is assinine. TERRORISTS are to blame.

You are out of line. See item #4 in my previous post.

I was expressing my sentiment to the people of Spain, and it appears that you want to fight.

It is truly unfortunate that you feel that way. You are certainly entitled to your own beliefs and opinions, and I do not owe you even the courtesy of an explanation for having my own opinion.

Live and let live? I wonder.

Ok, explain how this:

"The tragedy of mangled train coaches is the failure of President Bush to be honest with the Spanish people, and the world."

...is even REMOTELY the truth.

Good night, Kevin. Sleep well knowing that I do not owe you any explanation at all. If you wish to make war because I expressed my feelings and my opinion, please continue to do it by yourself.

I will sleep well and you do the same in Washington knowing that I served 8 years protecting your right to free speech and right to exist in any aspect you choose.

You do, however, owe an explanation to your accusations as something like that, without supporting facts, is usually considered inadmissable.

Oh, you _only_ served eight years? Do you habitually poke hot sticks at people you don't know?

I served twelve years in the U.S. Coast Guard, was injured in the line of duty, and am now medically retired and a disabled American Veteran.

An opinion is an opinion. I owe you nothing. Please figure out a way to cope with life from this point forward. Please stop poking at me. You are really, really out of line here. You are being abusive.

It is rather uncouth of you to have pushed things this far. Now you are simply ignored.

Coast Guard?

.....nevermind.

BTW, I was also injured in the line of duty. Of course they call it "Wounded in Action" when you are in the other branches. SGT, USArmy, 24th Sig. attached to the 10th Mountain Division, Somalia, Africa.
