Is the war, at this point, more of an “occupation”? Yes. Are soldiers now coming from all over the middle east to blow themselves, and perhaps anyone within 100 yards, whether they’re Shiite, Sunni, Christian, blah blah blah, up? (Yeah, for 72 virgins…That isn’t ANYWHERE in the Koran)…Would we be better served by the troops being home? Ask the people who were in Katrina where the LA national Guard is…
I think the people in Berkeley would change their tune if a natural disaster of massive proportions hit their little town, or there was an uprising of the Mexican population that basically cuts their lawns and cleans their rich, white houses…Because the National Guard usually is the first to go in. And sometimes it might be the Marines if they’re closer.
States get federal highway funding taken away if they don’t conform certain DUI laws to “standard”. School districts get funds taken away if test scores are too low. Cities get funding for Law Enforcement taken away if corruption is eminent.
I think the “Semper-Fi” bill is just what these Rich, old school Hippies (who all turned “Yuppie” in the 80’s) need.
These 60 year old peace loving, tie dye wearing, guitar strumming idiots don’t realize that younger people are, without a doubt, more conservative than they could ever imagine. I’m not saying sheep-y “neo-con”, that’s for people in their 40’s-50’s who listen to Rush Limbaugh…BAAAAAAAA! But, we see where our money goes, which, for those of you counting, ISN’T in our pockets. We see three generations of welfare recipients with it instead. WE ARE NO LONGER THE MIDDLE CLASS, there really isn’t one if you’re under 40. The military is just…Right for some people. It’s a choice, just like being a Vegan-y, patchouli smellin, peace love flashing relic of the 60’s.
so many adjectives!!! :scared:
:ugh2:
I’ll take a well-informed, motivated hippie over some ignorant redneck who chooses their president by who loves jesus and hates fags the most any day of the week.
