You use the term “serve” as if you did this thing which you signed up to do without a paycheck. This slavish “thank you for serving your country” BS is rediculous.
If the military had accomplished a damn thing in the past 11 years except self aggrandizement I might be impressed.
Hey, you’re the guy who called us “mercenaries” specifically because we get paid.
You also stated flat out that you hate us.
You also stated that we are dog killing skinheads.
Don’t like being poked about it?
Aww, poor baby.
So it's the fault of the actual servicemember's that Iraq and Afghanistan are potential failures?
Last time I checked, the frackin' ahole in the WH is the CinC...
Your comment is frackin' stupid, because just about everyone of the servicemembers "accomplished some damn things"...the military performed quite honorably with the ROE and constraints imposed against them in order to ensure that they could not win.
And the thing is, they did it KNOWING they had little chance to be successful, but still followed orders and did their level best to perform as professionals.
"...self aggrandizement..."?
Get bent.
Aren't you momma's little darling? Clearly, you have absolutely no clue what military service during time of war is all about and you never darkened the door of Bethesda Naval Hospital or Walter Reed when Iraq and Afghanistan were going full bore. You have no appreciation for the guts it took all of those young men and women to give up the best days of their youth to travel to a hellhole and maybe get blown up in the process, all for precious little you so you can hang out at Starbucks in perfect safety.
People like you disgust me - but at least you didn't volunteer, so we didn't have to put up with your whining and incompetence on our flanks.
And you can take that snide, damnable attitude and go post on Dem Underground, you’ll fit right in. I hope you don’t mean Marietta GA!! I’m moving up toward there soon and I wouldn’t want you anywhere near!
