Watch the May 11 city council meeting.

Just before 44 minutes, during the portion when council members can speak and make announcements.  DEM Marian Porterfield says "....as we are coming up on Veterans Day ..."

Better to have open eyes, see the truths, acknowledge the negatives, and
speak up for the people rather than the politicos and their rich cronies.

There are so many days dedicated to military worship, it's easy to confuse them.

IKR! 2 days a year is very confusing.

another Sissy's Private Jackass Dictionary definition...

noun: appreciation; plural noun: appreciation
1.the recognition and enjoyment of the good qualities of someone or something.
"I smiled in appreciation"

According to federal law, the holiday observed on the third Monday in February is officially Washington's Birthday. It is NOT nor NEVER HAS BEEN Presidents Day.

By the way -- Four Chaplains day has a Schenectady connection.  One of the 4 chaplains, who gave their lives to save others on the SS Dorchester, was Clark V. Poling.  Reverend Poling had been the Pastor of First Reformed Church in Schenectady when WW2 broke out and he then joined U.S. Army as a chaplain.

As for those who criticize our nation giving honor to our military men and women at various times throughout the year, it is because of the simple fact that FREEDOM IS NOT FREE.  These brave men and women have either made the sacrifice in the past, are making the sacrifice today or willing to make the sacrifice in the future to keep our nation free.   It is because of these brave men and women that ignorant dumb assholes like the nayboobs have the Right to express themselves -- and, in Cissie's case - even to say stupid things.

Anyone who isn't happy to live in America is certainly free to move to the iSIS controlled areas of Syria and Iraq.  I wonder how long Cissie, Madam Xlax and the He/She Chickenshit would last in that environment.

Watch any ceremony of any of these "appreciation" days, and if you don't hear the phrase "let's honor those...blah-blah-blah" 100 times you weren't paying attention.  Honor - synonym - worship.  

BTW...I see they added a K9 Veterans Day of recognition.  Honoring dogs forced to go to war now.  Great!

Lol...ISIS and the CHAOS in Iraq and Syria is a result of the military being honored that invaded Iraq.

What does this have to do with Washington's Birthday?   This is about your beloved McTHIEF's partner in crime Porterfield saying "we are coming up on Veterans Day..."  




These brave men and women have either made the sacrifice in the past, are making the sacrifice today or willing to make the sacrifice in the future to keep our nation free.  


So DV, did you serve?   What branch?  When?  Reserves?

Happy to live in America.  But we have every right to speak out and act against the CORRUPTION in this country -- the CORRPTION that exists under your beloved mayor McTHIEF, your former Savage girlfriend,  and all their THEFT from the taxpayers (of which YOU are NOT one).  And the chickensh*t DV is wouldn't ever DREAM about moving into the city he claims is oh so wonderful; not to mention, he won't even dream about growing up, leaving the nest, and become a normal adult as in independent.

Military does not make decision to invade, that's on the politicians.  Military just goes where they are sent.

I'll bet Cicero is the only one who visits this site who was even aware of all those days devoted to "Military worship".

i don't really care one way or the other.....for me, and probably the majority of americans....it's just a day off from work and an good time for a cook out or vacation.

America is involved in soooooo many wars that folks have become desensitized!

like i said.....just another paid day off from work!!!!

IMO, people who participate in government in America should make themselves aware of FEDERAL holidays, what they are, when they are. You know, civics.
