Oh, the hate-filled critics like you never do. They always throw out that caveat "...but I support the troops!"
Then continue on with their venomous trash, which of course can be read and/or heard by those very same troops that you support oh-so-enthusiastically.
You're a disgrace.

'Another day, another attack and another life lost. Wonder if Rummy will be playing a little golf at the country club this week-end.'
And what are you doing while another life is lost? I guess Rummy should be living in a tent behind the white house, eating military rations, and being shot at. Would that make you feel better?
You dont give a foot about our soldiers; anyone with even a small brain can see that.

Serving in the military has its place but it surely isn't for everyone. Just ask most senior members of the administration.Me thinks you are confusing the Bush administration with your buddies in the Clinton gang of "draft dodgers"!

Kind of like me merely observing disgraceful trash soiling a thread? I see your point.

Yeah and I wonder how many children would have been tortured to death if hussein would have been still in power...
That was a problem the Iraqi people's put up with, gutless and spinless as they were/are, their problem to solve, not worth one American Soldier or Marine, not one. Blackbird.
To: Mr. K
How many children are being tortured in the Congo now? Please don't use the "humanitarian" argument unless you are willing to police the world....and please don't fall back into the "they had WMD mode" becaue that *isn't* the argument you are making now.
To: BlackbirdSST
That was a problem the Iraqi people's put up with, gutless and spinless as they were/are, their problem to solve, not worth one American Soldier or Marine, not one. Blackbird. Wrong. Some people have the ability to see big picture, others do not.
Regardless, I still grieve for the soldier lost today - which was originally what this thread was all about.

"pathetic piece of crap." Isn't a refreshing to find a freeper who belives in rational debate rather than name calling!
To: Austin Willard Wright
Isn't a refreshing to find a freeper who belives in rational debate rather than name calling! I'm quite capable of debate, thank you. I also have no problems calling 'em like I see 'em. And I will not apologize for getting emotional at the likes of this pathetic piece of crap feigning concern for our troops as he blows hot air.
Now, would you care to debate, perhaps on a more appropriate thread, or will you simply let your name-calling (albeit indirectly) post above stand?

Indirect name calling? The shame! I am so sorry for taking the low road, but then you're the expert on that right?
To: arete
I stand corrected. You're a disgraceful, petty coward.

Not high level thinkers?! I don't know. Coop also impressed me as a mental giant before I read his posts this moning.
To: arete
An American soldier has died for freedom.
That never has happened before.
After all, soldiering is the safest of professions, and our enemies use paintballs.
We must immediately panic and slander our leaders.
And by all means, let's make sure we don't bother killing any terrorists this week. That might get an American soldier hurt. And if we close our eyes and wish really hard, there won't be another 9/11.

Oh oh, there's the hate word again. Sure is an awful lot of hate being passed around lately. So what is it when a useful idiot like you comes into this thread and spews what you're spewing? Why don't you just go urinate on the kid's grave when he comes home?
