You know, I must say that these issues were vetted in Canada in the late 1970s, as promotions were given in the CAF based on whether a soldier was bilingual or not. There was a wave of early retirements.And so Trudeau, Canada's quintessential liberal fascist at the time ,succeeded in all but destroying the CAF, using political correctness and budget reduction.He too saw Canada's military as a colonial tool to be destroyed. He got rid of regular service regiments which were of Scottish tradition and made them into reserve units. Only now under Harper has the CAF begun its long climb out of its evolution away from being a peace corps like organization with political correctness ruling national defense.
This is the way Obama intends to demoralize and dehumanize real combat soldiers, not that this award alone would do it, it is a symptom, and indicator of the direction Obama intends to take on military culture. Obama intends to destroy our military culture, and substitute a fasist one, in which the military will become a threat to the general American populace. For Obama and his fascists, the military is a colonial military, one which exploits racial and ethnic minorities ( cannon fodder), and forwards capitalist colonialism around the world.Thus America will become weak militarily, subject to a diminution of its role in the world, and its national defense array inviting invasion from the South in particular.
Soon, the next images we may see is that such awards will have at least one open gay in the line up, to demoralize our military further.
Not so long ago Canada was presented with the image of two gay male RCMP officers in full scarlet dress, being married in Nova Scotia. SO you need to know where Obama is going with this, and the effect it will have in the future on our military.
The fascist goal is to destroy our all volunteer military and return to a draft system of national service,in which young Americans can chose national service ( Acorn Domestic Military force)or military service. That process has begun. Soon we will have young Americans patrolling our states in twos, bearing sub machine-guns, to keep order between racial and ethnic minorities, run by an ACORN like hierarchy?
You bet this is propagandizing, and this is the direction in which we are headed, according to what I have seen i Canada with a very similar historical liberal fascist evolution.
Note that I am not denegrating the service of these young women. I am denegrating the use to which they are being put as propaganda tools.No one should be standing up there on a platform as an icon of service without combat experience, male or female.I wonder which of them has that?
but how can you be so clear-thinking and eloquent so early in the morning?
crikey...i've posted "nom nom" on a thread about Obama at a sub shop...and even THAT took a cup of coffee first.
Mounties Mountees?
Likely at least one of 'em, anyway.
That's simply fabulous.
