Re: For Veterans and Military personnel only.

Your unwarranted name-calling is very telling. Good luck in your career with an attitude such as yours.

What name did I call you?:confused:
 
Re: For Veterans and Military personnel only.

So you are saying Bush is blamess? And you call other people uninformed....

President Bush was a much to big spender for me......Other then that I don't have to much to criticize him for.
 
Re: For Veterans and Military personnel only.

Yep, according to the links below, you're voting for a regular pacifist there Catawba. You would have thought he won the Nobel Peace Prize or something.........oh wait.....I wonder if we will see a recall on that like we did on Gov Walker lol.

Since pacifists don't get elected except in the fairybook stories, we have to deal with reality. Or, some of us do. So let's examine the positions of the only 2 viable candidates we have to choose from.

The drone attacks kill far fewer innocent civilians then conventional bombs and are done with the permission of the countries they are used in for that very reason. Romney has never said he would not also use them.

From the beginning, Obama said that Iraq was a dumb war, and Romney supported it.

Obama withdrew all troops last year, and Romney said that was a mistake.

Obama has begun to withdraw troops from Afghanistan, and Romney says it is too soon.

Obama has proposed cutting military spending, and Romney has pledged to increase military spending.


For me, since I don't believe in fairybook story endings, I have to go with person that I feel will wreak the least amount of damage to others abroad for the sake of US hegemony.


That is the meaning of my quote that you took out of context and so proudly fly on your posts.
 
Re: For Veterans and Military personnel only.

why am I not surprised someone as far left as you would prefer Hitler to Romney.......We are not looking for your vote.

Did the guy you keep calling beautiful change his name to Hitler?
 
Re: For Veterans and Military personnel only.

It's even sadder when a person can't remember what they wrote.

Whatever.......If I said something that was not true I would apologize but if it looks like a duck, walks like a duck and quacks like a duck then my left win g friend its usually a duck

Not sure but I do believe he doesn't like Jews or Catholics

Bravely spoken safely from behind your keyboard. Did you have to have a couple of drinks to work up the courage to make that post or were you confident your anonymity and ITG persona were enough to protect you?
 
Re: For Veterans and Military personnel only.

Be careful my left wing friend I received violation points for calling someone clueless.

When you make unsubstantiated accusations, I'm sure any honest person would recognize that you are clueless in doing so....but given your persona so far, I expect you or your little buddies will report me anyway. That's how people like you work, right?

Hey, I'm fine with you being a kool-aid drinking lib who doesn't have the spine to step out of party line and not vote for President Obama. If that's your gig, by all means, have at it. My beef with you is that you trumpet this anti-war rhetoric all over DP but still vote for a war mongering POTUS. IMO, the only way you can not be a hypocrite is to A)Criticize President Obama for his polices as much as you do President Bush's or B)Just don't say anything about it.

Again if you tell me the names I called you and they are not true I will apologize...........As far as the clueless comment I am not reporting you I just thought youwould like to know....

You say your in the military and instead of Old Glory your avatar is one that was on Japanese Kamikazes that killed many of my shipmates......R U in the Japanese military, that might explain it.......

ITG. Great. BTW, I'm not in habit of explaining myself to every joker who acts tough on the internet much less one who not only continually insults and attacks me but which hasn't earned one shred of my respect.
 
Re: For Veterans and Military personnel only.

Of course. You were in the Navy. :)

That was so awesome!!! I literally laughed out loud on that one. Friggin squids.

That is fine then I will just assume you are Japanese and retired from the Japanese military...Nothing wrong with that...Have a nice evening or day which ever applies.....

You are free to assume whatever you like. I seriously doubt you will change your ways for little ol' me. 'Rots o' ruck, swabbie.
 
Re: For Veterans and Military personnel only.

Yeah and proud of it..............A squid, swabbie, give it your best shot.......I sure as hell was not a Jarhead..........Reminds me of a couple of things though

1. Jarheads ain't bad though...They have never lost a main gate yet......:lamo

2. a riddle for you............What has a 200 GCT and crawls in the bushes? 200 Jarheads :lamo

I couldn't resist that............

What is sad is a person who laughs at their own jokes. Pitiful.

Why do squids have tattoos their backs? To give the Marines something to read in the shower.

If there were a viable liberal running for president, I would vote for him or her. However since I am a pragmatist, I realized that voting the least hawkish of the viable candidates is a better alternative to voting for someone that cannot possible win. That doesn't change or dimmish my ideals, it just means I have chosen to be realistic in the choices available. If you wish to throw away your vote for someone that cannot win, and therefore will have no effect whatsoever in the fruition of your ideals, or even get you just a little closer to them, that is your prerogative.
