Much continuing gratitude & many kudos to all of our active duty servicemen/women.
Cant wait until 2013 when we can finally just let those damned neandrathals rape & shoot themselves into oblivion... our guys, gals & money are simply too good to waste on dead-end people like that. |

Houston is having a parade to honor the Iraq war veterans tommorrow. Organized by the city. First one in America. Who: US Military Veterans who served in Iraq or operations supporting OIF, current service members, and family members.Where: Texas and San Jacinto (Downtown Houston) When: April 7th @ 3:00 pm The Lone Star Veterans Association will be participating in the Houston parade to honor the men and women who served in Iraq. Members of the LSVA and those who wish to join are invited to meet us at 3:30 at the corner of Texas and San Jacinto. Click here to view the parade route. Mayor Parker and Houston Astros Owner and Chairman Jim Crane today invited all Houstonians to come downtown Saturday, April 7, 2012 for a welcome home parade honoring returning Iraq veterans. The parade, sponsored by the City of Houston in partnership with the Astros 2012 opening weekend festivities, will step off from the corner of Texas and San Jacinto at 4 p.m. and then proceed east on Texas to Crawford and then north (left) on Crawford to Congress, ending at Minute Maid Park. “I want to thank Jim Crane and the Astros for joining with the city in planning this event,” said Mayor Parker. “It is an opportunity to support and thank the men and women who have sacrificed their lives and time away from loved ones to preserve our freedom. We owe them a debt of gratitude and recognition that their service is appreciated. Please come show your support.” “America and our military have always had a special place in the heart of baseball fans throughout the country and especially here in Houston,” said Crane said, “It's only fitting that we will celebrate these brave men and women with a parade that culminates with a ceremony at Minute Maid Park. We are honored to be asked by Mayor Parker and the City to be a part of this special event.” At the end of the parade, the troops will proceed inside Minute Maid Park for a special on-field ceremony just prior to the Astros 6:05 PM game. The Astros will provide free tickets to the uniformed parade participants and their immediate families. View the Chronicle story about the parade.
