I got a peek into what is going on behind the Army as I watched the Senate hearings on the Fort Hood massacre. Useless Senator Carl Levin brought up a quote of Pat Robertson who had said that Islam is not so much a religion as a totalitarian system. Levin asked everybody of the panel what they thought of this and everyone dutifully expressed their disagreement with what Robertson said. I was shocked to see what was going on in our government today. It was like Levin was asking everyone on that panel to bow down before Islam. No Senator has any right to ask anyone what they think about any religion—this is a violation of his position as a US Senator. Everyone is entitled to their religious beliefs without being questioned by a Senate inquisition.
This look at the Senate hearing was a shocking glimpse at what is going on behind the scenes in our military. This only slipped out by accident because Levin was too clueless to see how bad this made him look.
There is also lots of sleazy politics behind these actions of Levin since he is a Senator from Michigan which is a state with a very large Muslim population. It had the appearance of the Democrats pandering to one of the newest immigrant groups just as they pander to the Mexicans.
Hey Viking, thank you for your service dude. Thanks to all the vets. Everyone here is kicking taliban a## and taking names. I’m just one in a continuing line.
I appreciate all the good words from everyone here. Unlike the turd in the story we’re talking about, I can’t describe how humbling it is to wear this uniform. I remember flying though Philly on the way here and I was just blown away at the comments and folks just offering kind words. It made me feel special. But when I think about it, its normal. Its what real Americans do. I’m just proud to serve dude.
I can’t tell you how much I agree.
thanks for your service.
regards,
You’re correct. The military (speaking solely from my Air Force perspective) isn’t the same as it was when I came in. Its been injected with all kinds of tolerance/PC nonsense and frankly I fear it’ll ultimately destroy it or at the very least make it ineffective.
Politicians want to view the military through civilian lenses and its just incompatible with the order and discipline a fighting force requires. Openly gay members? Are you kidding me? I could care less who a man (or woman) wants to be with, but openly? When/if that happens it will all begin to erode.
The recent Army incidents are just examples we know about. Unfortunately there are degrees of that in every branch.
Hey thats the plan amigo! You all sound like guys (and gals) I’d be proud to enjoy a “cold-one” with. God speed to all of you too
Roger that, brother.
Tell all your buds in Bagram that there’s a whole lot of us over here still thinking about them every day.
If you care to freepmail me... if there’s anything you aren’t getting that you need... maybe we can do something about that.
“Liberalism means never having to explain yourself” LOL
Mooselimbs in the US Armed Forces are a Trojan Horse, placed there by the treasonous.
Our military is being ripped to shreds from the inside as they (Obozo admin & libs) move to change DADT - and, allowing these followers of that pedophile Muhammad to serve in our military is simply asking for huge trouble IMHO.
Wonder if we might see a ‘Seven Days in May’ scenario.
And where the F is he, letting the POS talk to Al Jazera??
Oh, right. I forgot the CiC is an ROP POS too.
Agreed!!!!!!
You know it! I know it! They know it! But the appeasement crowd deny it!
The ACLU, the CAIR, the Feminist, the GLADD united will destroy what you defend; Our Freedom and Liberty!!!!
Amen & Amen!!!!!And that bomb is much nearer than we ever thought!
Again that depends on vowel sounds that do not translate well into English. The designations are ARBITRARY. Some imam has made a pronouncement thus we should adhere to his fatwa or whatever. They are Mohammedans.
Interesting thought ;-)
“ONE muslim guy who died on active duty.”
That does not prove a thing...
That train has long left the Station..
Had there been thousands of American Muslims sign up to serve in Infantry Companies and Battalions after 911 like the Japanese Americans did in WWII.. they might have a leg to stand on..
The Moslems did not and they do not.

It is a capital office to leave Islam in Muslim countries. This is both a religious and state law. We cannot even relate to anything like that in our country.
Don’t they check new recruits for possible irratic behavior or mental illness?
