"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.
Nancy says
He got exactly what he set out to do - he got a reaction. I looked at his blog and what he wants is the attention and gratification of knowing he got under your skin.
Kudos to the Colonel for his response.
He is not worth a reply on his blog nor a breath I take.
On of My favorite lines from a movie (Pure Country) is:
Funny thing about chicken Poop, the white stuff on top is chicken Poop too. Took me awhile to understand the line but makes perfect sense - he's no better than the white stuff on the chicken poop.

I DROPPED BY TO WISH YOU AND THE COLONEL A VERY BLESSED THANKSGIVING.
I AM SO VERY SORRY FOR SUCH UGLY AND MEAN COMMENTS LEFT ON YOUR BLOG. THIS IS OBVIOUSLY A PERSON CRYING OUT FOR ATTENTION ANY CRUEL WAY HE CAN AND I THINK THE COLONEL SAID WHAT NEEDED TO BE SAID. THIS PERSON WOULD NOT MAKE IT IN THE MILITARY. I HAVE LONGED PRAYED EVERY DAY FOR OUR PRECIOUS MILITARY AND I WILL SAY AN EXTRA PRAYER ALL 365 DAYS THE COLONEL IS SERVING ON FOREIGN SOIL FOR THIS COUNTRY...FOR OUR FREEDOM TO BE ABLE TO EVEN WRITE CRUEL COMMENTS TO PEOPLE.
THANK YOU FOR BEING THE BEAUTIFUL WIFE OF THE COLONEL AND FOR THOSE DAYS YOU ARE ALONE. MAY YOU FEEL MY PRAYERS ALSO.
HOPEFULLY BLOGGR WILL SHUT THIS MAN DOWN...YOU DIDN'T SEEK HIM...HE CAME TO YOUR BLOG...I WONDER IF HE HAS SAID THIS TO OTHER WOMEN WHO BLOG AND HAVE HUSBANDS IN THE MILITARY.
MY DEEPEST APOLOGIES TO THE COLONEL FOR HAVING TO SERVE FOR SUCH AN AMERICAN AS THIS CRUEL MAN

Matthew 5:11-12: "Blessed are you, when men shall revile you, and persecute you, and shall say all manner of evil against you falsely, for my sake. Rejoice, and be exceedingly glad: for great is your reward in heaven: for so persecuted they the prophets which were before you."
Be blessed and encouraged, Colonel and Lois! You have a lot of support out here.

What a weirdo!! Anyone that can think that is off their rocker and UnAmerican. Some people are very clueless, and should not speak of things they know nothing of. God Bless All Our Troops and May The Lord put a hedge of protection around your hubby!!

Oh my goodness!!!
That is TERRIBLE to read.
It is SO sad what people can
say and do!
"For the mouth of the wicked and the mouth of the deceitful are opened against me: they have spoken against me with a lying tongue."

I'm so sorry that person left such a ridiculous and tasteless comment! Some sad people just get their kicks out of being nasty. Just know that most people do not think that way! Your Husband had a wonderful comeback!
I hope you have a wonderful Thanksgiving!

I've known several military members, and they are all highly intelligent individuals---the best of the best, I would say. I think the person's blog name says it all.
Redeemed By His Love says
Hello, I came to your blog via Noreen's at "Life Blessings".
Please tell the Colonel that was an excellent answer! We are proud of our military and keep them in our prayers & their families! As a former military wife (some years back) and an American I thank the Lord for our brave men & women that help to keep us safe from our enemies.
Be safe Colonel & his bride, may God guide your every footstep and surround you with His loving presence.
Linda says
I am so sorry for the comment of that insensitive person. Just don't pay any attention to such foolishness.
Please thank your husband for his service to our country. I for one appreciate him, as well as all of our wonderful servicemen you give so much for our freedoms.
And thank you for being such a supportive and sacrificial wife.
I know it must be so very hard for you and the kids when he is away.
I pray you will have friends who fill your life with love and friendship,...and family members who will help you get through this time apart from your man.
Have A happy Thanksgiving!

I'm so sorry that you had to read such a comment. I agree with Debbie- to report him to blogger. Such senseless spewing of hate. The Colonel's comment is right.
Take a deep breath and think about all the wonderful people in this country:)
God bless,
Linda C
