Are you saying that ALL the medics and surgeons are Liberal?
You do know that there are BOTH liberals and conservatives in all fields of work.

That's odd, I thought most of them had opted out on COS and joined the VFP movement so they could star on the nightly news with Jane Fondal and follow in the footsteps of Kerry.

But I'm sure you know that already. I normally wouldn't even reply to such a remark but you got me going with the first part.
First off, I don't believe that's the sole purpose of our military. But am I to understand from your comment that you don't believe that we should support countries that want and need to defend themselves; but should instead just let the same enemies that may well have long range plans to destroy us just waltz in and take them over? Or are you saying that you would rather we just eliminate our so-called "industrial military complex" and give up without a fight ourselves?
First off we don't risk anybody taking over us. There's this bomb that we have so many of that would immediately bring an end to any country trying to invade our borders.

It's a question of what we do outside of our borders. We've been lied to so many times by our politicians it's truly insanity to believe anything they tell us. The only solution is to back or not back UN resolutions and go in with a herd. The UN can't figure out what to do next and that leaves the world a better place. Sort of like when Clinton was in office but couldn't do anything because congress and senate were blocking him.

Of course every politician is going to try to make you believe there's evil out there which is going to kill you if you don't do it first. It's always that way. What makes the man from the little boy is being able to stand up and not over react like an immature adolescent.

No recruiter would last very long or get anywhere if he was lying to recruits to get his numbers up. A recruiter has to have some serious salemanship skills above anything else.

Take the Army recruiter who recruited me. I had no intention of enlisting. I was 26, had a degree, a wife, two daughters and a mortgage. It was my brother in law who was interested and I took him to the recruiters' office. While my brother in law was taking a pre-asvab the recruiter asked me to take one. I said I was not interested, but he said, it does not mean anything. Just see how you do.

I scored pretty high and then he asked if I wanted to take the real one a few nights later. Again, no obligation. I went for it.

In the end, I wound up enlisting. While I was at AIT at Ft. Gordon, GA my wife stopped by the Recruiter's office to bitch about how she felt that he had mislead me and somehow forced me to enlist at gunpoint or something. When I came home on leave after AIT, she informed me that she was leaving for basic training at Ft. Jackson in two weeks.

The recruiter was that good. Once you walked into that office, he would pretty much convince you to join.

I dare say it wasn't a hard sale for the recruiter with you. Anybody with a signature like yours, expanded and in bold, is not playing with a full deck of cards to begin with.

When I enlisted, it was Russia who was the Boogey man and Reagan was President. My little tryst in the sandbox was Desert Storm, not Iraqi Freedom.

That might work if the enemy isn't already here. We can't very well nuke an enemy that's inside our own country now, can we?

Okay, you say that we've got the bomb so we don't have to worry about the enemy coming here, but you don't want us to fight the enemy outside our borders. You make as much sense as the UN. I see our best option as getting out of the UN, seriously using that dreaded bomb wherever needed to put a stop those countries that threaten us by supporting terrorism and prevent any future invasions while using our military to permanently rid ourselves of the invaders already here.

That's what all the fat, lazy, stupid people say.

Gee.. and I was just getting ready to say the same thing about someone who boldly proclaims by his/her very name to know the "harsh truth" when in fact that person is spewing out the same propaganda and lies that the media's been trying to force feed the country for the past two years. *LOL*
