My dear young friend. I think that the best answer to this is to glance into my diary and see what I had to say:
"Dear Diary"
" Today was a very busy day. Met this morning with representatives of all units scheduled to rotate into Iraq for the OIF 3 rotation beginning in about 2 weeks. They were very focused on their mission and hopeful that we washed up old farts could find some way to get them the equipment that they need to carry the fight to our enemy. I hope that I don't let them down."
"Caught glimpses of the Reagan funeral at the Crown Room in the Atlanta Airport. Sorry I missed the whole thing, but after all, we are at war. Important that we remember that Ronald Reagan saved the World."
"Responded to an ill-advised post on Free Republic. A well-meaning and Good American posted a vitriolic and propagandish screed from some commie-leftist newspaper in New Zealand that propagated complete nonsense about the Stryker Combat Vehicle. Of course, this leftist agenda merchant journalist, quoted Lonnie Scholtz, a kind soul, but completely ignorant and misinformed on the subject of armored vehicles. Scholtz has become the favorite source from those on the left who rant against this innovation, as they would against anything military. Unfortunate dupes, whose hearts are pure, but whose understanding of the facts are lacking, join in on the cacaphony. Meanwhile brave men die, not as a result of the alleged malfeasance cited in these screeds, but because our enemies: on the field of battle, in the mosques, in the Congress, and in the Media are undermining the tough work that has to be done."
"Dear Diary: Forgive these misguided souls, they know not what they do, I bear them no ill will."
Don't let facts get in your way pal. I can just imagine who your future employer will be.
