Okay pal first off. I didn't even sign on for the GI bill. I didn't even take a bonus for extending my contract to go back to Iraq for my third COMBAT TOUR that was offered to me because I didn't want OUR GODDAMN tax dollars. Thats right EVERYONE MILITARY PAY TAXES TOO! If you want I'll even post a copy of my LES up here and highlight the part where it says I don't have the GI Bill.
Secondly, If you think I'm tired of fighting this war then you probably failed miserably when it came to reading comprehension. Clearly stated is the fact that I am tired of fighting for a bunch of self righteous, self-centered, greedy,ignorant know it alls who can do everything in the world better than those who are presently doing it, yet have trouble paying your [...] rent.
Thirdly. I have cut my teeth and watched by brothers die in the mountains of Afghanistan and the streets of Iraq of my own goddamn free will. I knew what my job entailed and I returned fire with a mother [...] smile on my face [...]. I'm going to do it again and again too until this war is over or I die first.
So don't sit there and tell me to go AWOL WHEN YOUR SITTING ON YOUR [...] PLANNING FOR RETIREMENT.

mother are not trying to run the military they are trying to save a son. Congress is not weak they was lied to and what are we fighting for. our forefathers didn't want us to fight a war over a lie. if we wanted to help people it was more country that needed help (ie) Sudan oh but they don't have that much oil. don't be blind look around 2003 and no WMD and Bush can't say i was wrong and youngmen keep getting killed for what for people that was fighting before Moses walked the earth.........

I am not a soldier. I didn't get stress cards when I went through boot camp. I don't call officers by their first names. I know how to employ my weapons systems. I am a Marine.
I accept the fact that there are people opposed to the war. I am fine with that. Presumptious people are what irritate me. Ignorant people are what irritate me. ( I have worked with soldiers in combat, I'm not being presumptious)
I don't have anger issues. I have issues with people who are rude and assume that I'm some [...] that joined to go to school. Have a nice day DH.

I disagree...

Iraq was never a threat to us.

Why didnt we target Iran, China or North Korea? They have been threatening nuclear weapons on us for years.

Why didnt we soley focus on Afghanistan after 9/11? Why hasnt Bin Laden been found yet?

It's ludicrous...We will not win this war...We have painted ourselves in a very bad light around the world.

Wait till we might need help. Who are we going to call? Canada? Mexico?

I mean you know that we didn't catch guys from the IRA, Syria, Jordan, Iran, Chechnya, Saudi Arabia, Yemen... you know that. I was just having another flight of fancy I guess. I must of been dreaming about all those guys. We were probably just arresting or killing regular average joes who had RPG's, PKM's, RPK's, H&k's and all sorts of other goodies.

Keep skirting...

That's all the people that have a hard-on for this war do.

They cannot accept the facts...

The facts are that we were not threatened by Iraq. We were told by the UN to stay away. We defied them and made up all this garbage about the WMD's so our selfish president could make his mark.

Well, he thought it was going to be easy. Isnt turning out that way afterall is it?

Now we are stuck...

Why wont you answer my questions about the other countries?

I know why...

leonidas50,
I'm giving you a standing ovation my friend. Not every American feels the way Pov does. Keep up the good work of keeping our country safe. People like Pov have never been where you've been. They've never seen this enemy first hand. I'm amused at how they have all the answers though. LOL

what is an aronym?

AHHHH!!!! EUREKA!!!!
YOUR A COMMON JOE! NOT A [...] WORLD LEADER OR A MILITARY COMMANDER! SHUT YOUR TRAP YOU WANKER!

Uh, yeah there were never weapons inspectors in that country getting the run around.

You know, I never expressed I had all the answers. How ignorant of a comment.

I am giving opinions...

You people around here fail to realize what an opinion is.

You want all the warm and fuzzies because you are there.

I am sorry, I dont support the war. Never have and never will.

Doesnt make me less of an American.

It's ok...I need to go to work now anyway to support my family.

It's been real...

oh the hell you didn't.
RPG=rocket propelled grenade
PKM= a 7.62mm medium machine gun
RPK= a 7.62mm medium machine gun
H&k is a german arms manufacturer who makes a lot of fine fire arms. Props to you fellas.

Doesn't even know a few basic weapons the enemy uses.. but oh you know we're losing the war. Go get elected. Till then work on that retirement fund bud.
