Bubba, I try not to make these discussions personal but when guys call us out as having "no sack" because we disagree with the President then it does get personal. I hope you continue to post in the Political Forum, it is really a great place to exchange ideas and vent a little. And I hope you don't mind that I sneak a prayer in tonight that you DON"T get those jobs in Iraq. :mj14:
Been travelling and kind of missed this.
Stevie, I didn't say you had no sack 'cause you don't support the prez. Now how dumb is that? You have no sack because you hide your head in the sand and fail to realize the dangers of the world we live in today. Perhaps even more exagerated by the current Bush administration if you want to believe that. You hate the administration with vile. I don't know why nor do I care. It's certainly your prerogative, but you can't just say "Busch lied, people died" and then run for cover. That's having no sack.
Also defending every liberal media outllets that have something negative to say about any conservative issue is having no sack. Failing to support certain policies of this or any administration that lead to the destruction of the enemies just to further your personal agenda is "having no sack". Saying that you support the troops but don't want to see any one killed or hurt is "having no sack" because it is their issue to take up, not yours. Libs always defending those who they deem as downtrodden and unable to defend themselves . Let the soldiers compain on their own if they want, they sure the hell have earned that right. They have more sack than I can muster.
All I would really like to see is a toal, complete and outright condemnation of terrorists who impose their will on other people. Be it islamo's, commies or any similar type (Al Gore, Kennedy, Dean, etc. for example). When anyone dedicates more than a sentence to the "abuses' of Gitmo or Abu Grahib or any other american military detainment center for enemies, I will call them "No sackers". If their killing, maimimng and raping people there, that's a different story, but I know for a fact that you see much worse "real abuse" in democratic european prisons and
turd world demokratic ccountries.
And my apologies to Smurph since I presumed he was bashing the military. One reason they are not more enlistments are the horror "stories" from the liberal media that scares away candidates.
I wonder if Audie Murphy would have enlisted in the military after watching CNN/Al Jazeera for half an hour before meeting the recruiter.
