Coming from you...
I doubt the gayest nba forum troll crew, which is never posting in the political forum, just happened to stumble into this. Since you are so far up dok's ass, it would make sense for you to join in. I understand your view of the wars we have fought, but to not stand up against people making light of dead soldiers is pretty sickening.it's honestly shameful.but hey keep in good standings with an online group.

Besides what seems to be an injustice with Benefactor's friend, I am appalled at what so many people are implying about the military here.
We don't know the facts behind the guy being called to active duty. There may be a skill he has that's needed. If that's the case, it's another proof that a large organization has problems, in not keeping such jobs filled. Show my any organization half the size of the military or larger that doesn't have some pretty big mistakes.
I can understand people with the at ude "the military's not for me." That's fine, but I must wonder due to the resentment of some here, if your at ude is that you are just pissed off because the military said you were not good enough for them.
It doesn't matter what reason someone joins as long as they do it with honor. Some people are pressed into it financially or because of family tradition. Myself, I was not pressed into it, even though every uncle I had served. My father was the exception to that because he became the man of the house taking care of his younger brothers and sisters. I never knew my grandparents from his side.
The military is what you make of it. The choices you make. Like anything in life, good or bad luck applies to any control you have for yourself.
I would say more, but it's time for me to head off to work. Didn't realize what time it is.
However...
Some of you hare absolutely disgust me. Fine if the military isn't something you want, I have no problem with that. At least have respect for those who serve.
4.5 years instead of 4....that's really the best smack talk you can muster up![]()
people caring more about the puppy David Motari killed than the worthless jarheads who died in Iraq
He went to DeVry or Everest?
hey, they called him up. job is filled. get it?
he took care of them, but he dumped you? that must sting.My father was the exception to that because he became the man of the house taking care of his younger brothers and sisters.
you lose control once you sign up. should have known that going in.The military is what you make of it. Like anything in life, good or bad luck applies to any control you have for yourself.
Should we also have pity for those that get sent off after they signed up on their own free will?
They're dead because of the decisions their made (according to you).
I have a huge amount of respect for people that fought in World War II and the like, where they didn't really have a choice. My first name comes from the brother of my grandfather, and Italian who was captured and killed by the Nazis during WWII. He didn't even sign up for it, there was simply no choice.
Your buddies died "liberating" people that don't even want them to be there in the first place. Wars that have absolutely nothing to do with America. Not only that, they extended their contracts (according to you) to keep doing that. But hey, the reason the political class can keep on pulling off wars like that is because they have sheep like you to go die for them.
Nono dropping truth bombs![]()
I never indicated that, did I. If this is for no real good reason, he has every right to be pissed. It's called "The Ready Reserves" for a reason.
Now I'm the first to say statistics don't make facts, that's why I have mentioned how important it is to base this on his skills. Now that we are drawing down, I simply cannot see why anyone from the reserve forces should be called up. What's wrong with our Commander in Chief?
meh. he has every right to be disappointed, but I don't think he has every right to be pissed.
Based on your posting history, I'd say the first answer you are looking for is that he is a lib .What's wrong with our Commander in Chief?

As a mod, do you really think you should be so unprofessional and disgraceful in your posts?
This is the type of post a sixteen year old would do. Disrespecting soldiers who died in combat? Seriously. Pretty sickening if you ask me.
Have some standards for yourself even though you are anonymous.
So how many of you guys who oppose the govt. fighting this stupid ass war have participated in or organized a protest?
are you looking for a group to protest with?
