If The Ride Was Toronto To Buffalo I would Sponsor Phil

cycle for sight: toronto to collingwood to cure blindness

Two friends of mine, Phil McDowell and Jamine Aponte, are among the riders. Phil and Jamine came to Canada when Phil refused to participate in the war in Iraq.

deserter?

Phil served a tour of duty in Iraq, which is likely more than you can say for yourself I bet...

I didn't label him a deserter....
this was done by the US Military and his friends and supporters in the War Resistance movement. He chose to join the military and he should have been aware of the various obligations he was committing to and failing to meet those obligations says volumes about the individual and those that support him.

I didn't express support either way.

The fact remains. He went over and did a tour of duty under fire.

What have you done that can compare to that?

Unhypentated Canadian said...

Haven't been under fire but when I make a voluntary commitment I keep that commitment.......

I lean to the right but I still have a heart and if I have a mission it is to respond to attacks on people not available to protect themselves and to point out the hypocrisy of the left at every opportunity.MY MAJOR GOAL IS HIGHLIGHT THE HYPOCRISY AND STUPIDITY OF THE LEFTISTS ON TORONTO CITY COUNCIL. Last word: In the final analysis this blog is a relief valve for my rants/raves.
