Take up the White Man's Burden, Pat.

Yea it's aboot Scotland, but near the end those pesky Muslims from Africa get in the picture. I guess Pat yearns for pre 1948 Europe.

Unless Ferdinand and Isabella return to the Spanish throne, it ain't gonna happen.

Pat is so interesting, and so bizarre. He's a 19th century populist-racist fixed in amber. To be honest, he is probably closer to the way of thinking of most people than anybody on the traditional left or right.

There's a reason for internationalism, Pat. Nationalism and nativism lead to warfare, both between and within states. That was cute when the top of the line war machine was the frigate, but the world just can't afford it in the age of missiles and nukes.

Is there a USCHO Poser of the Year Award for dumbest statement?

Yup. It's named after you.

Remember this is Pio...you are either with him or completely normal!

You are a liberal just like I oppose Israel cause I hate Jews...dont tell my parents or I will be stuck going to Yom Kippur services to atone

Still playing your favorite song on the calliope I see: "I'm a Jew so I can't possibly be wrong in anything I say about Israel. Oy Ve."

Re: The Global War on Terror 5.0: Putin on the Risk

Yup, you nailed me. I'm a typical libtard.

Well, suggesting today's concerns motivated opposition to that self righteous old bat in 1941 is pretty strong evidence.

Re: The Global War on Terror 5.0: Putin on the Risk

Of course, reports of soldiers having a hard time assimilating upon their return from Iraq and Afghanistan are more peacenik fantasy, right?

The suicide rates? The difficulty in finding employment? The rate of depression? The horribly maimed and injured?


All just Hollywood, no doubt.

All serious problems we need to work harder to solve (short of abandoning our role in the world), but they do not invalidate my observations about post war peaceniks wanting to justify carrying NVA/Viet Cong flags and schlepping off to Hanoi to engage in a little commie fellatio.

In what way did I apply today's concerns to her WWII vote? I merely stated that she voted against going to war with Japan, and therefore a mob of men followed her out of the building, scaring her along the way to the point where she called the cops. All of that's well documented, and I just added the opinion that it shows a lack of that gentlemanly spirit so many profess to have. Except for you, you just profess hatred and bile towards anyone who doesn't tow your line.

Re: The Global War on Terror 5.0: Putin on the Risk

Is "peacenik" the new "libstain"? If you throw it out there one more time, do you think it might actually become an insult?

As opposed to what you and the rest of the chickenhawks on Sunday talk shows seem to think, it is not "anti-American" to oppose the use of American troops in efforts to police the world. America has air superiority - ground operations should rarely be necessary going forward.

No one said it was, Patrick Henry. But it is anti-American to display the flags of our enemies (sop during Vietnam anti-war demonstrations), to root for a North Vietnamese victory and to travel to the capital city of our enemies to collaborate with them. Hanoi Jane was neither the first nor the only in that regard, just the most famous.

I've already served on active duty and am a little too old to do so again. So I'm not entirely certain where "chicken hawk" is coming from except from an inability to argue intelligently.

You'd be better off sharing your concerns about American ground troops with the Community Organizer in Chief, since he seems unable to make up his mind.

Without addressing your primary arguments, I wanted to take this opportunity to come down on the side of "toe the line" as opposed to your usage. http://grammartips.homestead.com/toetheline.html

So I suppose beating the sh*t out of her wouldn't have met with your approval either? Truthfully, I don't hate anyone, except America's enemies. Neither she nor you fall into that category. You aren't important enough.

Even by the heavily discounted standards we apply to you, that's pretty weak.

Re: The Global War on Terror 5.0: Putin on the Risk

and so the war on terror takes a hiatus while we go to war with each other instead.....



Frankly, I find it breathtakingly hypocritical for people to get all worked up about a so-called "war on women" inside the US when those same people are totally silent about the real-life atrocities inflicted upon women in some Muslim countries. How outrageous to ask for a woman to pay for her own birth control! Oh, the horror! yet clitorectomies are given a complete pass. Women who are caught committing adultery have stones thrown at them until they keel over dead. no big deal. we have to understand how those men are working through years of western oppression.


I guess I'm just old-fashioned.

By your own admission weren't you a desk jockey stateside when the shooting was going on? There's nothing wrong with that mind you as my own father did the same, but it doesn't qualify you as an expert on military affairs any more than it did him.

PS - Whatever they're paying the orderlies on your ward, it can't nearly be enough.

No, you're just disingenuous.

I dare you to find anyone on this board that says any of that is ok.

But that doesn't mean it makes war halfway around the world an acceptable option in response. Unless we're willing to go full Pax Romana (good luck with that), the simple reality is there are going to be bad things in the world that we can't do anything about. That also doesn't mean we should stop remedying lesser things that we can deal with at home.

But have't you heard? If you don't jump every time JPod says jump, you love the terrorists and hate 'Murica.

FF and Pio are daily reminders that the people who brought us Iraq didn't learn a thing. They're never going to get it, and no matter how much misery they bring it will always be somebody else's fault. An ideology can never fail, it can only be failed.

I think we did the same thing 50 years ago. Look where it got us..

If, heaven forbid, we do get involved in a land war, we need to fight it differently with little management from Washington

So us not wanting to send troops to Iraq means we were waving North Vietnamese flags in 1970? Ok... Beyond the fact I wasn't born until 1985 I don't see any of us wishing our country loses, traveling to Iraq (or Vietnam for that matter), or wishing for our troops to die. In fact I think we want the opposite.
