So unless you see that as using the poor student to advance a political agenda, your claim that the anti-women in combat people are behaving disgracefully looks like crocodile tears. (Unless of course that you know of some behavior that I'm not aware of.)

Please direct me to the post where I made that claim.

"Please direct me to the post where I made that claim. [that anti-women in combat people are behaving disgracefully ]"

"…However, it's been my observation that the folks who are against women in the military have been the most vocal to date.

Of course, either side using this woman's courage and patriotism to advance their political agenda is contemptible. As the father of a woman in the military, I find some of the condescending gratuitous remarks about women in the military especially offensive…." -#47

I suppose that could have been more of a warning than an accusation. But there's something of an implication of "contemptible" behavior there. I'm a little on guard for this accusation. Two weeks ago a woman accused me of "hijacking" a thread on the torture of prisoners after I made a single angry post after seeing a photo of Jessica for the first time, saying that she had no business being anywhere near combat. It's that freeper's curious inconsistency in thread purity that has motivated me to hang with the topic here and see where proponents will take this issue.
