Stop thanking the troops for me: No, they don’t “protect our freedoms!”

Why is pro sports constantly jamming military fervor down our throats? Their claims are wrong in more ways than one

Liberals, not nearly as smart or educated as they think. They are doomed to repeat history.

With a Masters degree in “public policy” you are not qualified to do anything else useful in life

“They are doomed to repeat history.”

And, unfortunately the rest of us along with them.

Our freedoms are slipping away. Although our soldiers have served with honor in the past and most of those currently serving still have a sense that they are upholding the constitution and the values that made this nation great, the CIC clearly does not share foundational American principles. Moreover, the great usurper is conducting a leadership purge that rivals Joseph Stalin.
The fight for freedom now is very different than in years past because the enemy is not foreign; it is domestic.

Liberals like this pissant truly believe that the power of their own intellect is what keeps them safe and above the fray. In short, they believe they are gods

1. Seal Team grabs Justin and snatches him away to undisclosed foreign hostile country.
2. Air drop Justin over said country.
3. Wave bye-bye to his sorry a$$.

OK, now who’s next the POS to complain about the military NOT defending their right to be the biggest whiners and wambliest humanoids on the planet?

I know LOTS of military pilots who fly jets that drop REALLY big, effective bombs—maybe they can do some target practice over Justin’s undisclosed location in that hostile foreign country...

“With a Masters degree in “public policy” you are not qualified to do anything else useful in life”

No kidding!

He forgot to check his marxist handbook... guys of his rank in the “movement” are only qualified to procreate with the hairy armpit women of the ows.

what are Bradley Manning and MLK?

Bradley Manning is a confused queer traitor, we know that.
MLK was a wonderful orator and didn’t deserve what happened
to him, however I think he would be shocked at the state
of blacks in this country and time.

Dinky D. here just doesn’t realize how close he IS to
losing his freedom...
