Re: For Veterans and Military personnel only.

I can sort of imagine NP sitting there, consumed in the idea that pot shots at Obama on the internet actually matter, thinking to himself, "Hmm, what can I post to beat on Obama, that I can actually win? I know! A vote aimed at military personnel!"

...And the roaring "GODDAMNIT!" when the votes started rolling in. :lol:
I was about 13 or 14 before I realized that goddamndemocrats wasn't really all one word....
Grandpa was a repubican, to be sure. IT probably irked him a little that his only child was a democrat...
 
Re: For Veterans and Military personnel only.

Obama, Unless christie is picked as VP. I am hedging my bets for a Christie run. :thumbs:

You may want to reconsider.


If I was from a competitive state, I would be voting Romney. As I am from Alabama, however, I will vote a 3rd party to his right - to help keep him on his toes.
 
Re: For Veterans and Military personnel only.

If the vote were taken today: Third Party

US Navy Senior Chief Aircrewman 1985-2010

Brother, I stopped reading that as soon as they tried to link him to Al Qaeda..

:shrug: The man has a soft-spot for Islamists and their enablers in the US. None of that stuff is made up.


but hey, if you want to go hero-worship on him, that's fine. :) I had my own fairly public thing for Mitch Daniels. He's just not a plausible Republican candidate for POTUS.

Please tell me how you came to this conclusion.

This is the same Gov. who said the NYPD did no wrong spying on said islamists.... This is a free country, Is he a statist for everyone except terrorists? It makes no sense.... (I disagree with christie and wish he would arrest invading NY agents).


The issue Christie has is he's not a GOP insider, works well with the other side, and is pragmatic. Neither party can have that.

Hero worship? nah..... I just think he's the best of the bunch... :shrug:

I saw a brief interview with him a few months ago and I have to say, while I don't agree with him on every subject he impressed me a great deal.

sand?
Idaho is a right to work state, union and non-union work in close proximity...
I once showed an article that smeared unions to a fellow at work, suggested he read it. He came back and said he agrees, then I had him re-read the part he likes. He missed a negative, got it wrong.
Took a while, but I convinced him that his union was screwing him over by paying him the same as others who either could not or would not do the hard work, the mentally challenging work. He bid a job on the non-union side the next month, and got it, and got a raise out of it.
when a person is excessively biased, he sees and hears ONLY what supports his pre-existing opinions...and this describes people like NP.

Yep, this is called confirmation bias.

When he told philly to go **** themselves, I was proud.... :mrgreen:
 
Re: For Veterans and Military personnel only.

Dunno about hazl, but IIRC Wiggen is a Vietnam-era veteran and Pete's profile pic at one time was a photo of himself in uniform in Korea I think.
 
Re: For Veterans and Military personnel only.

I was also a little skeptical at the number of "military" who selected Obama in the poll_

No offense guys, but most liberals are simply too wussified to serve in the military_

Can you imagine a liberal stationed in a country with no Starbucks, much less in a combat zone_

This would be insulting coming from anybody but you. Coming from you it's filed away in the 'inane babble' folder. Which branch of the service was it that you served in again? I'll tell you mine - U.S. Navy, 1969-1972. Vietnam.
 
Re: For Veterans and Military personnel only.

1964-65 Vietnam Vet.

BTW - Where is all that liberal media we hear about? Most reps on talk shows are republicans. Check out Sunday mornings, main stream media. There are left and right medias. But the montra is ALL are left wing. Check radio stations across the nation.

Yes, Obama, is my vote!
 
Re: For Veterans and Military personnel only.

12 years active duty starting in late 64, 2 years of school, then 67-69 Fast attack submarine, 69-70 Vietnam, 70-71 more school, 71-74 AAWC, GTMO, 74-77 COSL, Norfolk, then out and into the reserves for 10 years...
Pretty sure that Obama has done more for veterans his first year than GWB did in 8 years....
During Obama's watch, I was diagnosed with Parkinson's and 2 weeks later PD, IHD, and DMII were added to the agent orange presumptive list. I submitted my paperwork and now get a disability check from the VA.
I don't hate Obama, but I will vote for Romney....after all, Romney is the first republican in many years that I will be voting FOR, instead of just voting against the democrat's candidate.
 
Re: For Veterans and Military personnel only.

Thus far, without a spurge from the tea-bagging conservatives, a surprise...
IMO, Romney cannot be trusted; our President can be...
USAF, '58 - '62.....
Maybe our military is above average where is comes to "being up on things".
