"The military is an excellent way to keep the
stupid members of society off the streets.
He will be gone for a year, but if he is injured or killed he will be home sooner."
The above quote is what someone commented about my last post.
The post where I was talking about the Colonel leaving in a few weeks.
To go to Afghanistan.
To fight for our freedom.
Below is what the Colonel had to say:
"You may one day realize the value of those who man the wall on your behalf.
But first you will have to move out of your mother's house."
I think that says it all.
Oh, the name of this person's blog is called
"The Crap Blog Detective."
I guess he needs to start with his own blog.

The Colonel got the best of that little exchange.
What a peculiar creature! He's undoubtedly compensating for *something* and goes around making mischief because he's such a wormy-looking little guy. Couldn't make it through boot camp in a million years.

Oh, sweet Lois, just forget this ridiculous comment and remember all who are so thankful for families just like yours. Prayers and blessing!

Dearest Lois, I have been reading your posts over the last few weeks without reading the comments, so I didn't spot this until you posted today. How very sad that some people feel this is an appropriate way to act - and how amazing that you have such a fabulous husband, and friends (real and virtual!) who stand alongside you when people of no consequence at all try, and fail, to be 'funny' or 'smart.' Ignore him, and let your blog remain the amazing, edifying place it is to visit for those people who value what is important. Love Fiona x

I am SO sorry someone would even think those words!! What is wrong with people? And I want to say THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU to all the service men and women out there (AND their families) fighting for ALL of us.
Loretta says
Oh my Lois,
What an insensitive nasty comment from a very strange person! I am sorry you had to read that. I just went to his site to see what he's all about and belive me he's not even worth discussing.
I want to wish you and your family a most blessed Thanksgiving. Blessings, Loretta
Sharon says
I agree and feel that this needs to be reported.
My heart goes out to you and your family that have to get such comment.
If his blog will not take comments then I would say he is a total zero.
Prayers for all the good men and women who protect us so no accounts have the privileged to make comments.
Have a blessed Thanksgiving.

He has been deployed to Iraq on three occasions and my heart grieves each time for him, my daughter and his family.
Work from home India
Jill says
Are you kidding me?? What a complete idiot and the Colonel's response is priceless!
Just remember, for every idiot, there's at LEAST 12 (that's how many people have commented ahead of me) of us who love and are thankful for all the men and women who serve this country and defend our freedom.

Pay it no attention, Lois. This guy thrives on the attention he gets by making ridiculous, distasteful comments.
Jacque says
please accept my gratitude for your husband and you and all the sacrifices you make to keep me and my family free.
HAPPY HOLIDAYS AND THANKS
