“Is that your philosophy too toadie? “
You’re an idiot for even suggesting such a question.
Let’s put it this way: Why do you have a single penny left in your pocket since every penny you have could go to the troops? Are you just being stingy and whishing harm on the troops by denying them your last cent to protect or arm them? Is that your greed denying the troops the best of the best at any cost?

Thinking of a fancy acronym gives the staff pogues, remfs and chairborne commandos an opportunity to feel important. If their acronym is widely accepted, they even get medals. Now That's funny !
Unfortunately true also....;)
