I adore this song, My cousin went to Iraq recently and I sent him and his military wife this song to listen to,,,,they were both crying and said that this was the best song they ever heard and that they adore and are now addicted to your website. :)
My dad went to Iraq and watched two of his friends die. I LOVE this video. I hate it when people complain about the military and completely disrespect it, I mean without those guys going over seas and fighting for our freedom we wont be able to do the things we do now. But anyways i really love this video!!
Bonjour,
C'est suite au visionnement de votre clip que j'ai pris la décision de me réenrôler et de servir pour une seconde fois mon pays. Mon but est de servir en Afghanistan.
Merci pour ce clip très patriotique mais aussi, soulignant le sacrifice de ceux qui vont servir outre-mer.
Bonne journée,
Bernard Nava (Canada)
was combat fieldmedic in 1983+ 91alpha.I remember,messhall FortDix basic training the song "Girls Just Want To Have Fun"CindyLauper playing over loud speaker.I respect what you people did for them that are still there.PLEASE LETS BRING THEM ALL HOME!!!!
Yeah, like the US troops over seas would really be something to be proud of! The USA foreign politics has for decades waged wars for the profit of the Big Capital. There is nothing to be proud of dropping bombs on women and children! I despise the lyrics and mentality of songs like this! Spitting at your general direction.

@Bring down the NWO How much more disrespectful could you be? Really? No doubt you're sitting safe and snug in front of your computer with no real idea in your liberally brainwashed mind what the troops actually do, and with no appreciation for it. Try not spouting the nonsense you read on leftist blogs and start loving your country for once. If they didn't do it, who else would? You couldn't find stronger, more diedicated people anywhere. I LIKE A BOY!

Clinton's two terms in office there were over 14,000 ... during President Bush's two terms: less than 8,000. So, in 8 years of Clinton and no "war" we have over 2/3 more active-duty combat related deaths than in 7 years of "War" under President Bush....go figure.
Let's make some facts aparent: when you include the total number of active-dury, combat related fatalities, you will find that during President Clinton's two terms in office there were over 14,000 ... during President Bush's two terms: less than 8,000. So, in 8 years of Clinton and no "war" we have over 2/3 more active-duty combat related deaths than in 7 years of "War" under President Bush....go figure.
Pehaps the point of the video is to simply tell the troops that - contrary to what the main-stream media reports - there are many, many people in the USA that support them? Like the war or not, the troops are there for the long-haul...and as anyone who knows anything about the military would - I am sure - agree....nothing can replace the prayers and support of the people. I wonder when we will find a place where we can leave politics out of it and simply tell our troops - WE ARE PROUD OF YOU! And "WE" means: liberals, conservatives, black, white, rich, poor, etc.
A great video, relatively non-partisan (honestly, no-one thinks we should not respect the troops themselves). Catchy tune, good cause, hot women. It's all good. Raises the profile of the military in an unusual and enjoyable way.
I have two sons in the Military and want to thank the creative team that put this video together. Their has been a lot of misinformation and poor decisions from our countries current administration, “we can debate if it was deliberate or honest mistakes” however this video shows the United States agrees on one thing (we support our troupes)
Thank you,
Great job girls. I am serving over in Iraq (Camp Victory), and would love to kick the crap out of any of the pansies posting crap about this song and questioning your honor. Nothing ticks me off more that those un-American pansies sitting behind their computers thinking that they no it all. You think this war is so important, get off your commie ass and go down to the recruitment center, go through basic and come over here. After that, I will respect your right to post shit. Until then, shut the hell up. GO ARMY!!!
PS Aquil, I love ya and feel your pain, but man up and move on. If you don't it will eat you up. There are a lot worse things that could have happened to you over there, trust me, I know. You served your country, and you did your job. Be proud, stay strong!
I'm a marine that returned home in 07 after 13 months in IRAQ > My wife(21 yrs old) had 2 other men she was fucking so after 3 months of trying to work things out we seperated > While in IRAQ I killed men,women & children and now I can't sleep at night > They need to bring all the troops home > NOW > PLEASE PRAY FOR ME >
Thanks for the "Support the Troops" nature of this video. I appreciate the intent of those that support the troops, even if they do not support the current administration's policies.
Please keep in mind, unless you've been there, or routinely talk to people that have, your have a very limited perspective on the policies and the progress of the war in Iraq. Your beliefs and viewpoints are shaped by various media outlets that nearly all have a common theme - they disagree with President Bush and the war.
I work with military officers, all veterans of Iraq and Afghanistan, every day. A significant majority of them will tell you what you see on TV news outlets and read in the nation's papers does not truly represent the progress being made.
loved the video, but it's easy to get emotional and nationalistic and forget about the background and the reality. it's sad the guys and the gals have to be over there in the first place, and as many US soldiers that are over there, there are almost as many private armed contractor ("mercenaries"), some of which are from south america (among them former Pinochet soldiers recruited by Blackwater), and some of which are russia afghanistan veterans,
some of those non-americans are abused by their poverty, and risk their life for a war we ent into based on lies for /day, the us corporations that have contract with the government are essentially using one third world nation's former soldiers against another undeveloped country's people, for a war about money and oil, and we're paying for it, what is it, 7/month/person.
something is seriously wrong,

Thank you,
Firstly, THANK YOU for making this video. I have friends (both gals and guys) serving Over There, so this warms my heart that you gals are showing them so much support. I know I am, too, and will keep doing so 'til we bring every last one home for good.
Robert, you stand corrected, it is DEROS and you are correct about lil dick (richie), I fully realize how far out there he is and was only trying to placate him long enough to keep him from becoming a tatooed skinhead at least till he gets out of grade school. You on the other hand seem highly intellectual and I want you to know that I truely appreciate your comments pertaining to this patriotic video. Thank you!
OK, on a more positive note...
Doesn't this vid remind you as to why you love women? I don't just mean the scrumptious featured models, but even moreso the girls loyally awaiting their guy's RFOS? ;-)
"Richard, your skewed view of Obama Girl lacks merit..."
MajE, this guy is beyond "misdirected":
"Liberals are Fucking Left wing , Anti American , Terrorist Appeasing , Fag lovers ! And the Obamba girl is a dumb Whtie Trash Nigger Lover !."
Yeesh! This is is straight out of KKK 'literature.' Scary.
Robert
Richard, your skewed view of Obama Girl lacks merit, there was no mention of Obama in this tribute to our troops, Obama Girl is a paid model actress basically doing a commercial, your bias is clearly misdirected!! Your parents are surely not very proud of you. Grow up!
I love the support and the fact that their are girls out there that prefer "doggy tags" over jody. cause i was starting to wonder. lol. thx again for the support its much needed.
Liberals are Fucking Left wing , Anti American , Terrorist Appeasing , Fag lovers !
And the Obamba girl is a dumb Whtie Trash Nigger Lover !. . Mommy and Daddy must be proud
You should take the Ape over for dinner !

Wow, FU liberals, What is your rank and MOS?!?! I am a SSG in the US Army and took particular offence to the enlisted comment. I have been to both Iraq and Afghanistan. What more would you like a person to do? Enlisted not doing anything, you should be ashamed of that comment.
Oh and by the way, the video and the song rocks, thanks to IAVA for helping with this and bringing it to my attention.
As a BP.com resident openly right wing conservative, I would like to comment on the posts by FUL. I've abbreviated his name because i'm sure he breaks out the speed lube every time he sees it in print. First, conservatives use our real names because we have the courage and conviction in what we say and believe. Second, we are fully able to laugh at ourselves and the humor as so well done on this site. Third, we are better educated and don't need to lower ourselves to FUL's level of vernacular to make our point. I believe FUL is really some pre-teen idiot and the best thing is to just ignore him. He's obviously suffering the effects of EMF radiation from continuously pushing his face up against the TV screen while attempting to look down the various Fox News anchor's blouses.
Mr. Sabatini,
Hey Bro, I may be a liberal, but I am totally down with what you have to say in your post. However, please note that it is a two-way street--i.e., there are vulgar, ill-informed boobs on both 'sides,' as well as (thankfully) informed, educated, civilly behaved individuals.
Cheers,
Robert

i want to thank you guys for this video from the bottom of my heart....my husband is currently surving in iraq and it made me smile and lord knows i needed its so thanks
I have commanded U.S. Paratroopers and indiginous militia forces in both Iraq and Afghanistan and am still fighting hard for our country; I hate partisanship and both political parties equally (go General Washington!, go Bloomberg!, go Governator!, go Teddy Roosevelt Bull Moose Party!!!) . I think, however that this web-site and the videos produced are the best examples of what our Country's young talent has to offer. Nobody in Hollywood is producing stuff like this with this type of message. This particular video really makes me proud; the others are equally as great--good use of catchy music, lyrics, and well produced videos with very attractive people in order to achieve political commentary. My beret's off to you BarelyPolitical.com!!!! I think that you will make a real impact on politics this election year (and show that big money doesn't buy you a winning candidate anymore!).
Just to clarify: I am down with this video. I don't support this war, but I sure as hell support the troops and their families. Believe me, I DO NOT mean this as any sort of partisan jab, but the national debate would become far more constructive if some people on either 'side' of the whole issue would realize two things: some on the left need to stop realize the difference between the military and militarism, and some on the right need to realize that criticism of war policies does NOT equal criticism of those who sacrifice and suffer the most for poor judgement on the part of our leaders. Sound trite? Perhaps, but no less true. Robert
so mister murphy. what do you suppose do then see as every war from here on out is going to be some form of guerilla warfare. lets see you finish what you start and you go an educate the people. i mean im ok with isolationism if you are just say goodbye to all the things you love cause there all made outside the U.S. going to a military school and being surrounded by people who are in the military i may have a better insight into the one light colonel you know (granted he is a bad ass). the middle east has always and will always be a problem we need to get some allies so it doesnt come to our land like 9/11. i have included a link to remind you of why we are fighting. and dont say well that was afganistan they come to us in Iraq. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xDh_pvv1tUM
Er, whilst I know this has the ring of patronzation (and for that I do sincerely apologize), turns out you are a far smarter cookie than I intially took you for.
OK, I know: Kill my arrogant, revolting ass--hey I would too.
You are entirely right in most of your contentions, and, I must concede, generally correct--if not in your assessment then in your perception--of the overall situation.
Very Respectfully,
Robert

Mr. SRA Derby,
It seems good sir, that you have failed to note two things: first, I am responding to what I thought was an, uhm, short sighted post on "fuck U liberal's" part, and second, criticism of what I believe to be most misguided foreign/war policies on our president's part is NOT criticism of our troops and their performance in Iraq. Get that the $#@$#@ through your head. To equate criticizing the policy of our commander in chief with directly criticizing our troops on the ground frankly smacks of neo-facism. Forgive me, for I know this will sound arrogant, even snide, but I am tired of this sort of crap argument: if you have a genuine argument--I mean there isn't much to debate one way or the other over "assclown"--make it. Otherwise, keep your damned vulgar idiocy to yourself.
Robert
Being a conservative I came to this site expecting it to be a joke. I viewed a few videos and couldn't help but to laugh. I them viewed this video and I was very impressed. Very well done and non-political. Great job ladies. I may not like it all, but you are doing your part for whom you believe in....good for you.
Mr. Loneagwolf,
Hey Bro, right or left. we're all Americans. OK, I know that sounds really trite/cliche, but it is the truth. ;-)

hey i think that those girls need to do a tour! i think that mims did an awesome part too. and if someone has a problem with this stuff, they should talk to me and ill set em straight!
If you really cared about the troops you would not support a president that will not let them finish the job. talk to some people that actually do something in the military not all the enlisted guys you have in ur video. get your shit straight and dont be so short sided. if u elect a president that brings them out why dont u go ahead and spit on the troops like they did after vietnam cause thats what ur supporting
"fuck u liberals wrote on January 3, 12:11 am..."
Mr., uhm, Fuck U:
Yes we liberals support the moron who got us into this bloody stupid, unnecessary war in the first place. (NOT!) Oh, and while we are not holding bake sales for Al Quaeda, we're watching CNN, because their nothing that warms our hearts more than seeing our own f*cking countrymen get blown or shot to sh*t.
And as for talking to someone who actually actually "[does] something in the military" well, I have a friend who is now a Lieutenant Colonel, who commanded a ranger battallion in Iraq, and he agrees with me that there is simply no military solution in Iraq. Any 'victory' (sorry, but the time has come where that last word can only be posited in apostrophes) has to be one of pacification. The opportunity for that is fading fast, but at least America has its best general (Petraeus) in charge: if he cannot retrieve something from this nearly unmitigated disaster then no one can

Mr. Fuck u, You said "talk to some people in the military that actually do something, not all the enlisted guys in ur video." WHO THE FUCK DO YOU THINK DOES ALL THE WORK???? It's the enlisted soldiers, sailors, airmen, and marines that do all the hard work so if anyone deserves to be in that video, they do. Why don't you figure out what you're talking about before you go spouting off at the mouth?

Shut the fuck up. Is this fucking video about supporting the war!? NO. Its about supporting the troops! The troops aren't the ones that declared war. Your such an ignorant asshole.

I agree with you but with not such an expletive tone. I watched the video, "You're so lame", where they mocked Busch and had a great time doing it. Bill Clinton, Hilary Clinton, John Kerry and Ted Kennedy said that Hussein was a threat and had nuclear weapons. Bush was the only one who went after the bastard (okay, I will also use some expletives). You can't play on both side of the fence. If you are against Bush and what he did, don't have a video admiring our troops no matter how hot and sexy you are!

Comment written surely by a "chicken hawk" ... like most conservatives are. Very "pro" war but to coward to enlist and fight in a war. As far as those chicken hawks are concerned, our soldiers are simple chess pawns and are expendable, do not deserve our best medical care and may have their benefits cut to save the gov'ment money to pay no-bid contractors like Halliburton!!

The enlisted men are what keep this military afloat. The are the ones on the front lines. I have met very few officers that I actually respect and those that do have my respect are former enlisted. The enlisted men and women are the most hardworking people I have ever met. I am sorry do not know where you are getting your info but you have been sadly misinformed. If it weren't for an enlisted man like my husband the Air Force would be nothing more than an unscheduled arline.
is there somewhere to download an mp3 of this song? =)

Won't let them finish what job? The troops were never over there to help the Iraqis in the first place, otherwise they would have been ordered to stop the looting and the violence. But that's apparently not what they're there for. So what job is it that liberals won't let them do that is so important?

OMG! I absolutely love this video! I saw this on someones myspace and just had to have the song! I'm married to a US Soldier currently fighting in Iraq, and this video brought tears to my eyes. Keep up the good work!
