Posted on November 12, 2013 by Eric Verlo

Unlike in Colorado Springs, Americans in Auburn, Washington were not subjected to a completely pro- more war parade on Veterans Day

Posted on November 11, 2012 by Tony Logan

What a contrast in Auburn to what Right Wingers subject us all to here in Colorado Springs each and every Veterans Day as they use our collective public tax monies to parade their pro war sentiments through public streets. See … Continue reading →

While the rest of the world celebrates Armistice Day…

Posted on November 11, 2010 by Brother Jonah

We have Veterans Day, or, as I like to put it, “your recruiter lied to you and society used your entire childhood to condition you to accept that, so to make up for getting screwed like that we’ll have a … Continue reading →

Veterans Day eleventh hour jeopardy

Posted on November 11, 2009 by Eric Verlo

Well here’s a clever twist of a knife into a phrase. Had you heard the “eleventh hour” emphasis on Veterans Day before? What used to be two minutes of silence to commemorate the signing of the Armistice at 11am on … Continue reading →

A Veterans Day wheelchair parade

Posted on October 24, 2006 by Eric Verlo

This year’s Colorado Springs Veteran’s Day Parade falls on Veteran’s Day. The theme is “a nation at war, a community of support.” Doesn’t sound much to do with honoring veterans. Are we holding an active-duty support-the-war parade on honor-the-Veteran’s Day? … Continue reading →

Veteran’s Day parade, part 1

Posted on November 7, 2005 by Eric Verlo

I should say that I had never watched a veteran’s parade, I think. Wasn’t it supposed to be a parade of veterans? This was a parade of mostly active duty soldiers and soldiers-to-be. It was very disturbing. There was a … Continue reading →
