That doesn't make you an expert on the war in Iraq or any other. Soldiers are there to fight, not to make politicial decisions. They follow orders as best they can and still stay alive. I know many Vietnam vets and none of them were interested in talking politics during and right after that war. But many of them are very interested in stopping the Iraqi war because they see us going down the same road.
you know many vietnam vets? well young lady i probabaly know a lot more than you know! from all branches of the services, wanna swap numbers ?
i never claimed to be an expert on thae war in IRAQ or any other war. howeven unlike you I HAVE had some experence in battle field!
YES i did join the swift boaters i was one of them. navy seal never met KERRY but he sure as hell was not anywhere near any of the patrols i made and i am darned glad of that because i wanted a spotter that had good vision not clouded, my spotter was almost as important as my rifle and scope. yes i have 2 purple hearts and the navy cross. i would give them up in a heart beat for one more minute in a buddy that did not make it home like i did.
of course you can spell hyocrite, it is easy when it is your last name.
i never once said i was an expert on the war in IRAQ or any war for that matter, nor do i spend countless hours looking for cut and paste items to post here!
Am I stepping toes now that I point out how the Bush Bunch and Republicans in general have disrespected veterans? Yet you get on here and proclaim yourself as a know it all because you have wounds from a war. Did you give John Kerry the respect he deserved in the last campaign? Or did you join the Swift Boaters? Did you give John Murtha the respect he deserved when he called for withdrawal from Iraq? I can answer that with a no, you didn't. His Vietnam wounds don't make him smart and knowledgable about Iraq, but your wounds make you know everything there is to know about war. Can you spell hypocrite? I can.
I don't claim to know everything that goes on over there. But I do have the good sense to know that, going on four years after the invasion, we're sending more troops in. That does not mean we're succeeding; it means we're failing. Only a blind idiot would say things are going well in Iraq and I don't have to be there to see that. Neither do you; you just refuse to admit you were wrong. So more young Americans will die before someone in the White House has the guts to admit the whole endeavor was wrong and get our troops out. It took years and tens of thousands of lives in Vietnam. I don't think it's going to take that long in Iraq.
not once did I say things are going well in IRAQ, thengs never go well in war and only an IDIOT would imply i said it was!
OK, you tell me how successful we are in Iraq, bearing in mind that the military just extended the tours of hundreds of young men and is putting additional troops in country. And the government we've put in place with the blood of our young and billions$ won't even denouce terrorism! Tell me how that equates success. I'm waiting. All I expect to hear from you are insults. Surprise me, why don't you, with a real response? :roll:
how about this for a real response.
i do not have the information to tell me how successful we are over there and niether do YOU. all you have is a lot of cut and past articles from the liberal news groups you suscribe too, as well as your employer LIFD.
gotta go feed the puppies
and i thank you for not respecting me for that in itself would be a DISgrace to the rest of the AMERICIANS and patriots on the board. and my fellow soldiers.[/quote]
I didn't say I didn't respect you. I compared my respect to you with the respect the Bush Bunch and the Repulican party gave some other Vietnam Vets. If you think they were properly respectful, then you should have no problem with my comment. If you think their service to our country was disrespected, then you should stand up and say so.[/quote
like i said i am glad you do not respect me for that would be an insult to know you did
gotta feed the puppies, here DIS here NONO, come get your treat

if not then how can you be such an expert as to what goes on over there? or anywhere in the world for that matter all you KNOW is what READ your'e just like your sister no nothing,
