There is a very big difference...

No, you don't get it. I never insinuated that at all, that Paul is qualified to be CIC because of his military service. No, not at all. I'm saying that it's disingenuous when FReepers dismiss Paul's service as if it was a week in summer camp or something. Paul's military service is just as honorable as those who died in the battlefields, and it's annoying when holier-than-thou types sneeringly look down on Paul because he was in a non-combat role. The same FReepers who rightfully defended Bush's service against Kerry and the MSM are now dismissing Paul's service like a joke, never mind that Paul served in the same branch that Bush did in his last 3 years. I'm not saying that Paul's service exempts him from criticism. Criticize Paul's foreign policy all you want, Hell I'm not completely sold on it too but there's no need to bash his military service.

I understand. I guess we’re both making a point about people who are acting like jerks rather than each other. Never mind.
