New York will hold parade for the NJ Giants, wont hold one for returning troops

Why is the crazed left unable to admit


Truth


And always twist truth into bs?
 
Priorities of the left

The cretin above sees the bad visual

So he throws shit around like a feces throwing monkey
 
Protect Obama at all costs.

They're just terrified that we might turn it into a Mission Accomplished moment because they fear without a US presence, which they hailed as a triumph over Bushism, that Iraq will flounder in violence...

... you can't have the parade prior to that! The two images might be put together by one of the giant C-Pacs Obama promised to have nothing to do with, right before he went out and endorsed one...

It's not about right or wrong, or even about actual accomplishment, like so much of this PResidency, the thing is to maintain appearances. Sounds like it's about time to hold another joint session speech and interrupt the Survivor premier.

:cool:

Because they're so emotionally invested in their own beliefs they can't bear the thought of being wrong. It's denial.
 
But all the fanfare — the parade this week is the fourth since 2000 to honor a sports team — has touched off anger and unease among some returned Iraq veterans, who are eagerly awaiting their own recognition.

“Everybody recognizes that the Giants deserve a parade,” said Paul Rieckhoff, founder and executive director of Iraq and Afghanistan Veterans of America. But, he added, “If a football team gets a parade, shouldn’t our veterans?”

Mayor Michael R. Bloomberg, who has long expressed his regret that the United States did not do a better job honoring veterans of the Vietnam War in the 1970s, has cited advice from the Pentagon in deciding it was not appropriate to hold a parade while American soldiers are still fighting in Afghanistan.

But a growing coalition of veterans, elected officials and other public figures are disagreeing, saying it is time to celebrate the men and women who served in Iraq.

Leslie H. Gelb, the president emeritus of the Council on Foreign Relations, a former correspondent for The New York Times and a board member of the Iraq and Afghanistan Veterans of America, called the Pentagon’s position “supercilious sensitivity” and “Washington-think.”

“Celebrating the Iraqi vets doesn’t negate a future celebration for the Afghan vets or deny that we’re still at war,” Mr. Gelb said, adding that “if we had to wait to honor our servicemen and women until wars were over, that would take a long time.”

And former Mayor Edward I. Koch, who in 1981 was the host of a “ticker-tape” parade for American hostages released from Iran over the objection of Alexander M. Haig Jr., then secretary of state, said he thought a parade for Iraq veterans was important and timely. Mr. Koch, who also hosted a belated parade for Vietnam War veterans in 1985, said the Pentagon was making “a political decision” that he termed “ridiculous.”

“It’s not premature,” he said. “I believe that a parade is required, is necessary, and New York City is the place to have it.”

Of all people, EVEN THE NYTimes!
