The union says Marines in foreign cars, displaying Bush stickers unwelcome.
By Eric Mayne / The Detroit News
"DETROIT -- The United Auto Workers says Marine reservists should show a little more semper fi if they want to use the union's parking lot.
The Marine Corps motto means "always faithful," but the union says some reservists working out of a base on Jefferson Avenue in Detroit have been decidedly unfaithful to their fellow Americans by driving import cars and trucks.
So the UAW International will no longer allow members of the 1st Battalion 24th Marines to park at Solidarity House if they are driving foreign cars or displaying pro-President Bush bumper stickers."
-Tom Enright
"But there is no doubt about the credibility of Giuliana Sgrena. She entitled her story "My Truth," perhaps to distinguish it from the bourgeois concept of truth that depends on adherence to fact.
Many on the left in America embraced Sgrena's "truth," while refusing to give their countrymen the benefit of the doubt. But hey, liberals support our troops. They say so all the time.

Maybe the president should request $10 Billion in emergency funding to secure a parking lot for the poor Marines.

Yes I did, but I really don't take issue with this as much as I take issue with the fact that they won't allow vehicles with pro-Bush stickers/signs. That's disgusting.

That doesn't count.
Very comendable. Will veterans who come to visit their children be allowed into the parking lot with a "W" sticker on the car window?

No. Bush hasn't exactly won the hearts and minds of workers.

Evidently the UAW hasn't exactly figured-out that perhaps their membership is not monolithic.
Bush appears to have won the hearts and minds of some United States Marines.

Their support's not monolithic, either.

Yeah, recruitment is really up! Pretty soon they'll be sending homeless Vietnam vets to Iraq with the promise of stock in Halliburton or Stevedoring Services of America.

Of course it doesn't, real patriots slap W stickers and yellow flag magnets on their cars and post pro-war stuff to RSFC, they don't do wimpy stuff like actually help veterans (or fund their benefits if they happen to be in government)

Does treating patients at the VA count as helping veterans?

Does putting vets back to work count? How about helping them get into housing? Or do you only count popping off against Conservatives in government as support to vets? I'm a vet. Keep your support to yourself. It does not help.
