Attitudes against the military - Page 3

"Of course you are correct. All Americans are directly affected by Bush's war of choice in many ways. For example we are all now at a higher risk of terrorism. The families of 4000+ dead fine young Americans and several tens of thousands of maimed fine young Americans are certainly effected and each of those is like a stone dropped into a pond with ever expanding effects."


This is normally the coversation that I have to deflect and say "Hey man, I was just doing my job.. I dont make the rules, I just follow them.. They tell me who to shoot & I shoot" I dont care who the POTUS is, I wanna go out there and kick some butt.

*** My comments have nothing to do with those in the military who served in Iraq. My comments ONLY involve the cilivian leaders of our country in power at the time. Had I still been in the military at the time I would have deployed to Iraq without hesitation, exactly the way I did to all my other deployments.
