There are few places on the internet where you’ll find more genuine respect, gratitude and affection for our citizens who volunteer to wear the uniform than Free Republic.
Senator Graham has CHOSEN to put himself front and center in a contentious presidential primary season. I happen to disagree with his views on how to run our foreign policy. I know he’s been “over there” dozens of times. So have people like my son and thousands of others. If they all came back with hare-brained schemes to play fast and loose with the enemy, like your misguided friend, you’d hear us hollering at them too.
To respect Graham’s service does not mean I must respect his ideas, his politics or his uncontrollable hysteria. That’s not passion FRiend, that’s mental stress showing itself ugly.
I have met all the GOP candidates and Democratic candidates a number of times. I know some of them on a first name basis. I am not saying that makes me well informed but it does help me to understand where they are coming from, and what they represent. Presently, I support Cruz for President..but would support any one of these candidates over any one of the Democratic candidates now running.
