Compared to Palin who:
1) Has been to Iraq to visit the troops (and looked like she was enjoying it)
2) Sent her son off to war...with pride (and not for some jive JAG duty like Biden’s, but to front-line infantry).
Nice.
I agree with you that Biden is a dirtball, but Gov. Palin didn’t “send” her son to the army. He’s a grown man who made up his own mind. (though I’m sure the upbringing he had helped).
I’m not trying to pick a fight, but the left is constantly playing up the idea that 18 year olds are duped children who thought they joined the Military to play video games. we shouldn’t buy into that same mindset just because it makes one of our own look better.
Parents don't "send" "kids" off to war. They turn 18 and join themselves.
...thanks for pointing the front line aspect out. There’s a big difference there.
Don't be surprised if young Biden ends up leading the prosecution of some poor army fire team because they did not give captured terrorists mint juleps when they detained them.
