Soiling the day? Gimme a fuckin break. The Vietnam and Iraq vets that are organizing this rally choose to speak out both against Bush's little adventure in Iraq, and for better treatment for those vets who have been treated like garbage by their own government. We will not be silent.

Want to know what will really disgrace Veteran's Day? When Dubya, Don Rumsfeld, Wolfowitz and the other Administration chicken hawks get up to pontificate tomorrow about the sacrifices average GI's make -- and then use the moment to shill for a a wrongheaded, obscene foreign policy that costs them nothing, and some 19 year old kid from Winnetka -- or Baghdad --everything.

Is the veteran community divided about the war in Iraq -- damn straight. So is the whole country.
