    Huh?? And you aren't clouding my argument with shades of grey; By your philosophy you should never question anything in life but believe blindly. Blind faith. Way to go, thats called ignorance, and I think you just defined it better for everybody.

    Nope, I'm exposing your argument for what it is. Don't you hate it when people make you feel like your avatar?

    Oh, not the "blind faith, sheeple, never question anything" cliche! Oh, I'll never be the same after that, sigh...

    You should read your last quote and think about what "you sounds" like from my perspective. I'm beginning to think your avatar is a self-portrait.

    I have been following some of your previous posts and you are a typical brainwashed, out of touch with reality, closed minded individual, incapable of reason and constantly attacking everyone with an opinion. It is apparent to anyone with half a brain and an IQ over 80 that you are a right winged Bush loving, war hungry, missinformed idiot.

    By the way if you are making fun of the avatar, you should, its your lover George W.

    Ah, no, according to anyone who has been paying attention. The war ended a long time ago. Since that time, it has been about liberation in post war Iraq. Don't you remember the carrier landing that pissed every left blooded Neanderthal from here to Kenny Bunk-port?

    There is something called the War On Terror, which "IS" still going on. As for the "War for Iraq" as it was officially called, that has long since ended.

    Isn't "support our troops" a reflex to Vietnam that came about during the first Gulf War?

    Its sort of a stupid thing to say or even discuss. Yeah, I support the troops. Why wouldnt I as an American citizen? Not supporting the troops would mean that you wish them ill, no?

    Useless excercise in semantics...Brilliant choice of words---"support" Is it possible to support the troops and not the mission? Of course not---Either way--its a gross oversimplification of foreign policy.

    First off, Semper Fi

    Second, nOR, not everyone here feels that way. Just a cowardly few who hail from places where purchasing used Russian subs is cool, those living off mommy and daddy, and lets not forget those where the wind is a plenty.

    It's always been that way though. Nothing has changed. I remember dad telling us stories of being spat upon while in uniform as a young Marine during Vietnam. There will always be a few cowards, traitors and haters, and there will always be a few, proud, that defend them so they can maintain that right! That is just the way it is. Nothing is different today.

    Thank you for your service, you deserve so much more!

    I put you on a pedestal right next to Bush, for the whole world to laugh at you. Now we can call you "Bushist"

    It is useless trying to nail this point home with GWorld. He hails from a place that has spent their entire history living under the US Shield of Protection. The most fearsome warriors they have dawn lovely velvet coats of red, and pretty brim polished black hats; mounted upon even prettier still pure breed steed.

    He has no idea that part of a Marine's training is to kill your enemy before they kill you. There is a reason for this.

    The main reason that Iraq is not a Vietnam today is because Marines are actually allowed to engage the enemy and kill them before they kill Marines. That was not so in Vietnam.

    GWorld will never look at the big picture. He will always seek to find little incidents to justify his distaste for Americans and Christians alike. His way or no way, that is his mantra.

    I really appreciate your comments and praise mia. Thanks :cool:

    The stories are true to this day. I know when I went back home to visit last year, I would wear my uniform out on town and people would come up to me and tell me "I feel so sorry for you" or call me a "baby killer" or "terrorist".

    I would laugh and ask them why? It would always lead back to our President some how. I understand they have strong feelings against our President, but to harass a Marine and question his ethics and loyalty, that just blew my mind.

    They are not the same thing. Soldiers do not make policy, they implement it when need be.

    If they were the same thing, the US would be a military dictatorship.

    I don't agree with it 100% Im far from a terrorist. Unless you ask a liberal wacko. In that case, I rape, pillage, and steal.

    Had prior service under your belt.

    How you look at it, doesn't make necessarily true or reality. :rolleyes:
    Many people live with illusions. Hitler also believed that he is saving the western civilization and Christianity. ;)
