Troops like you could be replaced with lefties if they make it out of basic,

Yes, I could be replaced very easily. Fortunately for you, I'm not going anywhere.

patriots are harder to replace.

You think the Left can't muster a formidable fighting force? History speaks differently. Look up the Red Army, the Khmer Rouge, the Viet Kong, The People's Liberation Army and learn differently.

If conservatives are encouraged to quit the ranks, the ranks will be filled one way or the other. I can't believe this is a matter of debate.

You compare the greatest fighting force on the face of the earth to those guys?  Each one of them got their tails whipped by the U.S. military and still would even by today's military standards.
