Nicely done. And Obama completed the job by surrendering our soldiers' every accomplishment. Iraq and Afghanistan are arguably worse off than before we began our war against terrorism.
If it sounds like a leftist douchebag, and walks like a leftist douchebag, and smells like a leftist douchebag, then it is a leftist douchebag.
Thank you for walking right into that trap.
I agree: we should have mobilized on the scale of after Pearl Harbor, after 9/11 and gone for full victory in the Middle East. We should have especially dealt with Pakistan, Saudi Arabia and Iran, the primary festering pustules in the world.
Joss Whedon once said, “The thing about a hero, is even when it doesn’t look like there’s a light at the end of the tunnel, he’s going to keep digging, he’s going to keep trying to do right and make up for what’s gone before, just because that’s who he is.” Well, that’s who Chris Kyle was. He was a flawed individual in his own way, like just about everybody is. But that does not discount the courage he showed in tour after tour in Iraq, or marginalize the hundreds or thousands of troops he saved through his actions.
I would say the comments are running at about 30% for, 70% calling him all the things we have been calling him.
The biggest “for” group is the “Bush is evil and should be executed” crowd.
You’re welcome!
This is libertarian mainline thought. Not as nasty as Wrong Paul’s diatribes against our troops back in ‘91 and ‘92, but still typical.
The Libertarians on this board will do what liberals always do. Lie, and claim it doesn’t matter. The only issue the libertarian party is conservative on is taxation. In every other area they line up with the hard left. Military included.
Forty years from now, a Leftist will be in a government-mandated “end-of-life-dignity” facility, lying in a pool of her own piss, gasping out with her death rattle:
“BUSH STOLE THE ELEC...uuughgnghgn”
Hate like this never dies.
Which is the main reason I posted it, vile as it is.

I’m unfamiliar with this sheldon guy but the comments at the link were hilarious in their arguments on whether he is a libertarian, prog, or just plain nutz!
The ones I read were defending him and wanting our troops tried for war crimes. Liberaltarians are Marxists in a different suit.
“A nation that does not honor it’s warriors will be defeated by one that does.”
Another reason the Libertarians are utterly insignificant EXCEPT as a force to sink conservative candidates from time to time. But in the battle against liberalism? Meaningless.
Once Saddam was deposed, the American Forces were ALLIES of the legitimate Iraqi government. Americans were not occupiers, but liberators, then allies of the newly freed Iraqi people against the depraved SAVAGES, who were murdering Iraqis by the bushel.
I wonder if Iraqi “insurgents” fight ISIS with the same verve as US occupational forces?
I think it is indisputable that leftists/liberals/DemocRATS hate America.
Yet another commie liberal head explodes.
