LOL! This is getting pretty amazing. And I mean that in a really childish kind of way. I mentioned on here the other day that I was dealing with some DUmmie wannabies on a local forum in my hometown newspaper. The Rats on there were sooo desperate to smear little ol me they were sinking to asking if I was "wasting their tax money" Well it's gotten worse. Check this out. It's from a Rat going by the name of "Proud American". It seems he has a few questions about my service in Iraq. Here's what he had to say:
"Tx, i commend you for your service in iraq, if you really did spend a full year over there.
Question for you? Just what did you do, what was your responsibilities while you were over in iraq? Were you involved in any combat? What division, brigade, company were you in and were abouts in iraq did you serve.
Were you in the U.S. armed forces over there or were you working for a private contractor, ie; haliburton or someother?
And finally, if you saw combat, did you have to kill anyone either insurgent or
iraqi civilian? Nothing meant by that, just courious if you had to kill anyone.
It would be real interesting to know what your capacity was with the military while you were over there if you dont mind telling us.
I be waiting to here your answer."
And here's my reply:
""if you really did spend a full year over there."
LOL! No bias or agenda in that question is there PA?
I was there from April 2003 to April 2004.
"Just what did you do, what was your responsibilities while you were over in iraq? Were you involved in any combat? What division, brigade, company were you in and were abouts in iraq did you serve."
Primary responsibility was Public/Civil Affairs. I also pulled guard duty...I personally participated in raids and helped secure areas during cordon and searches and vehicle searches at traffic control points by other units within our Brigade.
"Were you in the U.S. armed forces over there or were you working for a private contractor, ie; haliburton or someother?"
You obviously haven't been paying attention here PA. I'm active duty. I was in Baghdad with the 3rd Brigade, 1st Armored Division based right ehre at Ft. Riley, Kansas. We had responsibility for most of NW Baghdad. Our sector ran from the Tigress River, weat to the Abu Ghraib Market area to the Green Zone near Saddam's "Four Heads" Palace. Nice try at the Halliburton smear. You guys crack me up.
"And finally, if you saw combat, did you have to kill anyone either insurgent or
iraqi civilian? Nothing meant by that, just courious if you had to kill anyone. "
Yes I was involved in combat. Never killed an Iraq civilian. I hope that doesn't disappoint you too badly. I know you were just hoping to recommend me for a war crimes trial if I'd said yes. Try again sucker!
Now I'm not sure what kind of fun you're going to have with my full disclosure of my year in Iraq. But then again I could really care less. I have nothing to hide."
If any of you would like to give this idiot a little dose of reality...here's the link.

Howdy, Tex!
Glad to see your cutting edge is still sharp as ever.
Personally, I won't talk to them - ever. I have too little time as it is, to waste words on clueless parasites who live off the fruits of your labor and mine.
These guys are complete idiots. They haven't a clue why they have the right to say stupid stuff. And they will never understand what our military men and women provide for them.
But we know and understand. Thanks to you, John, for your part in keeping us free and safe.
