And by the way, how does everything get twisted around to being about you having been in the service?

Why is it so important to not allow him his vet status, while you disagree with his politics?

[2ndDivisionVet]

I never said he didn’t have “veteran status” and if I had, that’d be stupid. You were using it as a shield to defend a political hack and many of us called you on it. See the difference?

"My post didn’t say anything about mocking him,"

"Graham spent 33 years in service, there is no need to mock that,"
"LOL, you don’t need to be mocking a man’s 33 years,"
"Quit playing the drama queen and mocking 33"

Que?!

[Night Hides Not]

Oh hell no. Arm the Kurds. I’m against putting our soldiers in harms way with the chain of command we have, and knowing they’ll be under bs rules of engagement.

[ansel12]

No, I;m not using it as a “shield” to defend Graham, I am saying and meaning exactly what I am posting.

You are so emotional, that you can’t separate the two.

Thirty three years is a lot of military service, liberals try to do this with Reagan, and ignore his 5 years in the reserves, before his being called to active duty, and some even denigrate his active duty service, or dismiss it entirely, as being support.

Fall of a barstool at the NCO club?

I did that at the O'Club a couple of times, I need to resubmit.

[ansel12]

Look at those, they are not about mocking the man, or his politics, but about mocking military service.

[2ndDivisionVet]

OUCH!

[Darksheare]

Point is, you said that you never mentioned mocking Graham.
You did, three times.
You lied.
Proof is in your own posts.
Which I linked.

Now, yes, we WILL mock lipstick Lindsey Graham as often as possible BECAUSE HE DESERVES IT.

[Darksheare]

Attempted backtrack at post 47!
SEE the spin!
HEAR the desperation!
FEEL the angst!

[ansel12]

See post 47.

Ouch!

[Darksheare]

Perhaps if you are real nice you can ask the mods to remove those linked posts so that you are no longer lying in post 36!

[ansel12]

Mocking 33 years military service, this is like talking to a child.

Mock Graham all you want, but mocking 33 years military service is pretty bizarre, especially in an America where so few serve at all.

[smokingfrog]

Send 10,000 lawyers over there.

[2ndDivisionVet]

Gay, straight, transgender or a mixed bag?

[Rome2000]

Short bus material.

[Darksheare]

"My post didn’t say anything about mocking him,"

We will mock him no matter what.
If that gets your undies in a bunch, too bad.
And anything GOOD he did in uniform is negated by his actions to help the enemies of the Constitution.
You know, the SAME Constitution that ALL soldiers AND POLITICIANS swear to protect uphold and defend?

[ansel12]

The links proving my point, about 33 years military service shouldn’t be mocked?

They will do fine, but your childish glee and excitement is a little demeaning for you.

This from the senator who was nearly in tears after seeing the photos of the torments at Abu Ghraib -- including prisoners with panties on their heads, etc.

“Are you 100% service-connected (actually 230% but they don’t go beyond 100) totally and permanently disabled plus housebound? Because I am. Yet I never jumped out of an airplane. How’d that happen? Did I mangle myself in a Remington-Rand typewriter? Fall of a barstool at the NCO club?”

Tell us ALL about it.
