Yesterday was thanks - giving , a time where you sit around the table and tell what you are thankful for .A time when your loved ones travle miles just to see one another for one day . But for some , thanksgiving is a hard time , for people who have lost someone in the war , the war that they are fighting for our safty . They did not have to do this , but they did , for us and our country . For those many people who have lost some one in the war my heart goes out to you.
This is to all who care about our country.
God Bless all who serve

I agree, God bless ALL of the soilders, US, and more, and all of the victims of this war. My cousin is out there and she is a trooper, we hope she will come home soon.
I ask this every year but what is Thanksgiving? Why don't we (the British) get a holiday for it. Why is it always the last Thursday of November? Why do you need two excuses to eat dry white meat (god I HATE Turkey) and why do you put Pumpkin in a pie. There's only one filling for pie and thats Meat and Tatty.
I'm sure it's a celebration of the first harvest in that cruel winter of 1621. Fuck, I wish we had a holiday like that.
Is that it?!?! Bloody hell I know Americans like to do thins big but celebrating a Harvest? We just take baskets of tinned food to old people's homes.
I think it's just as bad as Guy Fawkes Day.
I remember once talking to a particularly dim acquaintance of mine on Halloween a few years back, and we were commenting on how it was a much bigger thing in the USA than it was over here. She agreed with me, and then added: "Like Thanksgiving. We don't really celebrate that as much over here either."
"No," replied I, "or, indeed, at all." I then attempted to explain that it was kind of an American thing really, but I don't think she understood, poor cow.

Thanksgiving is a purely American holiday (or should be). Long story short, it started when the people came over here on the Mayflower. They made a feast and the Indians came and shared their food with them. They were all thankful for what they had and thus, Thanksgiving Day in America was born.
Haha... that just made me think of the Will and Grace episode on Thursday, when Jack was convincing Vince's sister, Ro, to come out on Thanksgiving. I'd explain further, but it wouldn't really be as funny.

Just you. No-one else.
I care about our country...that must mean...that kaede and I are one in the same...hm...
I care about my country, too. Your theory is miserably failing, Paul Rodgers.
I mean all of you people of USA!
What kind of hypoempathetical, selfish, iniquitous person would be wanting of care?
I too, care about my country..and all of those voters, whether for Bush or Kerry, must too.
AGAIN: I don't think that ANYONE ELSE IN THE WORLD WOULD CARE ABOUT USA. Got it?
I think all who voted for B*U*S*H don't care about your own country... he's leading you people to the chaos, destruction and death.
You just bought and image of protection and patriotism that don't exist.
A flag it's just a piece of fabric, the anthem a song and the mother land the ground where you're standing on.
This is just an opinion, not tryin to make a socialist, politik or any kind of propaganda.
I know you love your country but, I think, you don't support Bush's government. At least in theory...
When I start feeling the destruction and death, I'll owe you a sincere apology.
