Oh my gosh - you will not believe my story!  Yesterday I posted a "Thank You" to all American military Veterans in honor of Veteran's Day.  I thanked them for their personal sacrifice and courage to keep all of us safe and free.  I received my first "violation" notice today that said my HEARTFELT THANKS TO ALL VETERAN'S ON VETERAN'S DAY was removed!!!!  It was removed because it was not a question!!

I just got my first violation notice today.  I was on "military" category Sunday and posted a message of thanks to all the veterans on Veteran's Day.  The violation I got today said it was not a question and it was removed!  Why would you remove a thank you note to the veterans on their special recognition day?

Great post!!  Your facts do not lie.  I really don't understand why people are so worked up over this Iraq situation.  As you stated, these are not alarming death tolls.  Our country has chosen to defend ourselves through a terrorist hosting country.  I give great credit to those who put their life down for our country, the 2,839 that were killed could be a very small number compared to the next terroirst attack on the US. THANKS FOR THE STATS!!! Happy Veterans day to all of my co-servers. =)

While i applaud your idea of doing something for the Veterans, I am not sure that alcohol bottles on a Christmas Tree is the right message to send. Isn't there a better way to decorate it? Maybe Angels? Flags? American food like burgers and apple pie? Something that will be funny. The holidays are a difficult time for a lot of people and a lot turn to alcohol at thhat time of the year. Maybe it would be better to send a positive message.

Thats the problem with this country--citizens do not know their history--they do not do their own thinking and research. Much easier to simply believe what the media tells them or some obscure article on the internet.\n\nMore than half do not even bother to vote but they cry the loudest!\nToday is memorial day and it isnt just a 3 day party weekend--it is a day to honor the men and woman who die and continue to die so you can ask dumb questions without reprisals.\n\nHere is a thought--if your so sure of wrong doing--then do something about it. Oh no wait--thats right--the US boogie man might get you!

Yes Veterans day is a day to rejoice in the feedoms and liberty that many people take for granted.  It is to celebrate the fact that many brave men went off to war during WW1 (of which there are so few remaining), WW2 (numbers also dwindling), The Korean War, Vietnam and any other war torn countries that North American has lost it's youth.  Today you can include females in that mix also as there are many brave women who have gone to battle in the Gulf War and the oil war that is going on now.  I usually don't answer homework questions but feel that everyone should be aware of the brave sacrifices that these veterans gave in order for us to live as we do today.  Bravo and hope that your paragraph will educate others in your class on what Veteran's Day is all about.

There is a service that you can use to help direct people to your website.  When you type in certain words it will place your website in top priority so it does not get lost in the millions of websites that are out there.  I am sure that GW did not pay to have this done more than likely it was a group like Moveon.org or hey even Michael Moore who you will note comes up next.  Anyway thanks for sharing...have a great day!

One point would be that all veterans put their lives on the line when they signed on the line, not just those that were sent to war. I feel that Veterans' Day has turned into War Veterans' day and, while I am very thankful for the sacrifice the war veterans have made, let's not forget that all the veterans were subject to the same possibility of being sent to war. Let's honor them all.

Veterans Day, this year and every year, is November 11.  It commemorates the signing of the peace treaty in World War One, which was signed at 11:00 on November 11, the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month.\n\nHowever, the *celebration* of the holiday will be on Friday, November 10, in order to give people a three-day weekend.\n\nGood luck!!

to be honest, i don't really celebrate lots of holidays anymore. just been really busy. but i do love this country. i'm even thinking about joining the marines after high school. i think people should know the history of this great country and know why they get july 4 off. well... some poeple still have to work on that day and any other holiday too. but you know what i'm trying to say right? \nfor ex: kids think it's just a day where you can blow up fireworks.\ni used to think like that when i was younger. now that i know some history about this country and others, i'm thankful for the things that i have. \n  SUPPORT OUR TROOPS! U.S.A

Yes I agree...Veterans system is in bad shape today, there is a lot of work to be done with that system.  I do not like to hear when my fellow troops come home and have to shell out money to pay for medical bills for injuries they received while serving.  It is like saying thanks for what you done but now you deal with the consequences.  I hope the government get the picture and help out our vets who have done so much for all of us...protect freedom

no all veterans should be honored. those men have rised their lives for us and given us the freedoms we enjoy everyday.  that is a very unpatriotic thing to say.  should we quit celebrating your bday?

"True meaning"?\n\nI get nervous anytime someone even mentions "true meaning". It's usually a sign that we're all about to get preached to.\n\nBut if you'd like to know why we have a holiday called Veteran's Day, you can read about the history of thecommenorative  holiday here:\n\nhttp://www1.va.gov/opa/vetsday/vetdayhistory.asp\n\nAnd you can also check Veteran's Day FAQ here:\n\nhttp://www1.va.gov/opa/vetsday/vetday_faq.asp
