Interesting how quickly your hypocrisy can be revealed. First from accusations of "chickenhawk" now to what, "ever ready military man"? What's amusing to me is that you, as a member of the militia, were expected to be the defense against me, a member of the standing army, should it be necessary. Forgive my smirk.
Our founders would be aghast at even your standing military presence.
Actually, they would be aghast at your ignorance after writing so elequently about it in Federalist No. 8, 24-28, particularly 29 and Anti-Federalist 24 and 25.
Personally, I think Hamilton would be quite pleased.
Burkeman1, I see that you think that you have great insight, but you sure blew this one!!!
optimistically_conservative, thank you for your service and as a member of the militia, I have my eye on you!
