How would you know, cynicom? I actually spend every day working with the troops in Iraq and some of my weekends working with the wounded. Only somebody with zero knowledge of this war or any war of insurgency would fail to understand the damage that petty perverts like Graner caused.
Instead of the image of the brave and professional soldiers and Marines that are the majority, we have those sleazy events with Graner's rear-area commandos to serve as our emblem.
You claim to have served, but what kind of scumbag outfit did you serve with, if that's what you think American fighting men should be allowed to be? And how low a standard should we conservatives have? Have we sunk to the level of trailer park trash?
Take a look at your posts...Ponder your language...You do the military a great disservice. Personally I saw many in the military that were carbon copies of you. That type are always there and have to be tolerated.
Armies are not made up of choir boys. It takes all kinds, from criminals to saints. You seem intelligent enough to be able to place yourself somewhere between the two. Via your posts you have already shown the rest of us where you belong between the two. Have a good day...
