The media is out of hand

That time of the month?

Wow, what an utterly sexist remark. It's great how you show your true colors when you feel threatened. I didn't think your credibility could be any lower, then you do this.

That time of the month?

I didn't write the article, I just linked to it. Did you know that Pat Tillman thought the Iraq war was wrong? Bet you didn't

You are putting words in my mouth that I haven't spoken...and you haven't kept up with current events, otherwise you would know that Tillman's family is very upset with the military over the way they handled the investigation.

Mostly I bad mouth our country's leaders, because they have done such a poor job. You need to realize that patriotism is more than just allegiance to whatever moronic windbad is in the White House.

As for serving in the military..well I can't currently oblige you. I don't feel like committing suicide and paying with my life for president Chimp's mistakes. If you feel so gung-ho about military service, why don't you join up, or maybe you want to stay home and bake cookies.

You're like all the other chicken hawks, professing that other people go risk their lives for your mistakes.

Actually chicken ####, I wrote that post.. and you know what, I VOLUNTEERED to serve my country during the Iran Hostage crisis thinking we were bound for Iran.. when a democrat and probably the worst president in history was in charge.

I did it not for the man sitting in the White House, but for my country.. to pay back what was given me, so put up or shut up pussy.

So take your cowardly ass somewhere else.

Snivel all you want about your country, someone more manly then you is standing watch tonight to give you the right, becasue we know you don't have what it takes to do it yourself.

What goes around comes around.

Well, coming from you, this sort of accusation doesn't carry much water.

I'll play fair when the rest of you hacks do.

Wow, what an utterly sexist remark. It's great how you show your true colors when you feel threatened. I didn't think your credibility could be any lower, then you do this.

You talk the talk.. do you walk the walk?

Do you vote?

I think he has.

Sorry you were so stupid, or financially disadvantaged, to hand you life over to a politician, but that's survival of the fittest then.

Hey look, Sen. John Kerry's a member of our forums as well!!!

I don't know, where do you live maybe I can come pay a visit and and I'll let you decide...

You've just insulted probably 75% of the people on this board, as well as every soldier sailor and marine currently serving.. I've had enough of your spoiled little ass.

 

[forestal]

and I'm sorry you think everybody has to pick up a gun to prove their worth.

If you really were/are in the service, I care that the sacrifices you've made, are making, or will make, are being abused by someone who's not very smart.

We dont' have to support the mission to support the troops. that's the basic tenet I'm trying to drum into your thick skull.

You have a strange way of "supporting the troops" when you say things like this:

Sorry you were so stupid, or financially disadvantaged, to hand you life over to a politician, but that's survival of the fittest then.

When your kind of support is saying that the only reason anyone would join the military is that they are stupid or financially disadvantaged, I'm sure they'd be happy to not have your support.

 

[zimmie]

What does "support the troops" mean to you? Presumably it means that one supports what the troops are doing and rooting for them to succeed. What else could "support the troops" mean? If you say, for example, that you support the Orioles or the Redskins, we assume it means you want them to win.
But most of the Left does not want the troops to win in Iraq. The Left's message is this: "You troops may think you are winning; you may think you are doing good and moral things in Iraq; you may believe you are fighting the worst human beings of our age and protecting us against the scourge of Islamic terror. But we on the Left believe none of that. We believe this war is being fought for oil and for Halliburton and other corporations; we believe you are waging a war that is both illegal and immoral; we believe you have invaded a country for no good reason and have killed a hundred thousand Iraqis [the Left's generally mentioned number] for no good reason; but, hey, we sure do support you."

Honest people on the Left need to understand that the two positions are not reconcilable. A German citizen during World War II could not have argued: "The Nazi regime's army is engaged in an evil war of aggression and is slaughtering millions of innocent people, and I therefore completely oppose this war, but I sure do support the Nazi troops."

Sadly Forestal, you'll never understand

If there were not people that were willing to do it.......then idiots like you wouldn't be able to spew this garbage all over the place.

Just some simple questions.

1. Do you vote?

2. If you believe you can do better, why not run for office yourself?

3. What sacrifices are you currently making for your community? Country?

4. Have you ever studied a mere inkling of political science? Machiavelli? Hobbes? Locke? That crazy Rousseau character?

5. Do you believe war is never warrented? Why?

Why are you opposed to a strike on Iran?
Why do you want Iran to have a nuclear weapon?
Why do you want Iran to destroy Israel?
Why do you hate America?
Why do you hate our military?

 

[forestal]

If the President ordered them to run off a cliff, would you support our troops by wanting them to fly?

The president has them trying to accomplish something that cannot be accomplished. They only thing you are doing by wanting them to stay in Iraq is for more of them to come home in body bags.

If there weren't people to make guns, we wouldn't have anyone able to pick them up.

If there weren't farmers to grow food, we wouldn't have anyone able to fight.

If we didn't have intellectuals to start a revolution, write a Constitution, our military would be a bunch of jack booted thugs.

Stop thinking with your d##K

People stay stupid things when they're pissed off. I'd like to retract part of my message. The part about bob being stupid or poor.

Maybe bob had a good reason to join many years ago, but the only reason to join in the last four years is if you're stupid or naive.

OMG!

Forestal, do you really not realize how stupid you sound?

Better be careful Bob, threatening another member might get your account canceled here...

Comments like this is why I normally don't read your drivel.
