So your saying that you didn't support the "Commander in Chief" when Clinton sent our troops out?

Yes, I don't know how to say it any more clearly. When troops are sent to do immoral things, I do not support the people who send them. If a future President sends troops to enslave people or capture territory, will you support him?

Did you EVER hear Presidents Bush and Ford speak out against a sitting President?

It is irrelevant to my point, and I addressed it in anycase. I am not a past President and their silence doesn't not signify support, only lack of speaking out against. They have their way and I have mine.

I'm waiting... because you are missing my points entirely.

That may be more due to your communication skills than my perception skills, but it is a mute point in anycase.

I tried to see if there was anything on your homepage that would indicate if you had ever served, and can't find anything.

My page is purposely empty to deny those who cannot address points from changing the subject and attacking me instead of the subject matter. It is very telling that you look there for things about me instead of making your points.

But I can assure you that we serve at the command of our Commander in Chief and that thier political party doesn't matter a hoot.

Goody, when Hillary becomes President you can serve her too. Blind patriotism is blind. Your blindfold seems to be the flag.

Your comments speak volumes about your cognitive process.

Since you feel knowing "anything" about you could "taint" a persons opinion of you when debating, that leaves me to ponder a multitude of things. Heck, for all I know you could be a serial murderer, a White Supremist, or a ton of other things I would find disgusting or contrary to my own beliefs.

One thing is certain, you obviously do not understand the role of a person serving in our nations military.

How we felt about Clinton as President and as a person are totally different than how we felt when he was "Commander in Chief" sending our troops into harms way. For the sake of our troops we stand behind a "Commander in Chief" during times of conflict or war. To do otherwise weakens us and as we are witnessing today, can severely hamper our nations strength and security in the world.

We adamantly oppossed Clinton and supported him being impeached. We are talking about two totally different things regarding the presidency.

You seem unable to contemplate those ideals and to seperate them..

I Leave you with a quote:

"A closed mind is like a parachute that won't open"

Hopefully, you will allow yourself "time" to ponder those words.
