As A Vet I Question The Value Of My Service And If It Was Worth It

Last edited Mon Nov 11, 2013, 08:41 AM USA/ET - Edit history (1)
When I see the nut cases in Virginia actually nearly winning when they should have lost bid at least 15 points. When I see a party attack the poor, the disabled, the sick and the vulnerable with vicious contempt and that party still wins elections and is able to stop just about everything I see red. When I see fellow Americans support Walmart over its employees who work of practically nothing and are abused. When I see children killed at Sandy Hook and GOPPERS who actually support more killing by arming everyone and it is still rewarded I am convinced that why would anyone bother to serve this sorry nation.

And when I see veterans benefits cut and our casualties become like the unknown soldiers I really don't care. I wish I could go back in time and take my service back.

The GOP should be dead as a door nail or put on the path to absolute extinction. I think that serving now only serves the interests of the Koch brothers and their allies. So you come back from your tour and all you can find is a job at Walmart or Krispy Kreme Donuts. Good jobs are still being sent overseas to places like Communist China.

I would not serve with a Republican or conservative. I would rather turn them over to the enemy because that is what they are. And anyone who votes for one of these goons is no better. The party and its supporters are nothing more than a bunch of religious zealots, racists and bigots And that is the real truth. I have no use for them as human beings or anything else.

I'm still convinced that this guy is a poser, I don't believe he served in Vietnam, but in the unlikely event he did, then he was one of those REMF that never saw one day of actual combat.

As A Vet I Question The Value Of My Service And If It Was Worth It

Then **** you with a rusty T-post, ya whiny bitch.  The whole point of service is that it's not about you.  I'm plenty proud of my own small part in confronting the Evil Empire and ultimately helping to crush it, as well as all the work later to keep peace and train, support, and lead troops in peace and war.

So basically "I served, but I don't agree with the concept of freedom, liberty, and justice for all, and the US Constitution stinks."

OK. Whatever.

That's pretty ****ing disgusting.

Look, I get it, you hate Republicans and conservatives, we all do. But you hate them for the most petulant and childish reasons that it's embarrassing to the people who have completely legitimate adult reasons to hate them.

A Republican and a conservative airman I served with is one of my closest friends who saved me from not one, not two, but three suicide attempts after I came back from Afghanistan completely ****ed up and took me into his own home with his wife and infant despite some really ****ed up shit I was involved in.

This makes me completely sure you're not a veteran at all, because none of us in our right mind would consider the horrific and evil shit you just peddled here. So with absolutely no due respect, and knowing this will be hidden, **** you. Bullshit like this really makes DU suck. If we were in the same unit, I would report you to the First Shirt and OSI and make it my life's mission to see you court-martialed and discharged in disgrace.

I've never reallyvcared about all the veteran stuff, I joined to get free college, health/dental care, and a decent paycheck, mission accomplished. 90% of the people I served with were conservatives/republicans, an all volunteer service attracts that group.  Joined for free stuff.

I'm glad you aren't serving. Political bullshit is not the same as someone who throws acid in girl's faces for trying to get an education.

Whatever hyperbolic bullshit you can come up with doesn't compare to that and the idea that you would turn over a brother in arms to one of those ****s is disgraceful. Feel free to continue staying away...

The DUmmy doesn't seem to realize that the 'free' stuff he joined for isn't actually free, but is paid for by workers who actually earn enough to have an income tax burden, something I don't imagine he and most of the other DUmmies participate in.

His (?) trying too hard has gone so far overboard it's becoming a certainty.  Even if we give it a pass for Veterans Day.

We care.  We care about that grateful part of the Nation that provides those things for those that may or may not be sent into harms way.  Those that understand that, even a peacetime term, harbors a great many hazards to life and limb, wear and tear on the body and a very difficult family life, if any at all.  An understanding section of this country that fully realizes that they sleep well in their beds, continue to prosper and have some semblance of control and freedom over their lives because young men and women do jobs that slackers like you think are beneath them and simply preformed for gratis and possible freebies.

 Thank you, non-Democrat, anti-LIbEral, military-supporting America.     We salute you and our brothers and sisters-in-arms. :saluteusmc: The rest of you drooling, progtarded infants can go phuck yourselves.

I knew it would be this DUche-canoe. Good lord he makes Marvin the Paranoid Android seem sane.  It sounds like he and madville joined for the wrong reasons and were lucky enough to make it through their enlistment without f$%king up. I didn't join the army because I wanted college money (even though that is what I did get in my first contract). I joined because I wanted to defend my country and give something back to the nation that has given me so many opportunities. The idiots who join just for the bennies are the ones who go AWOL in my experience. So MastersNemisis, :bigbird:

I think the primitive would be better questioning the "value" of its existence and if it has any worth.

As for its alleged "service" to our country, I would put it on the same level as our current SoS; not worth a pinch of shit.

Attention seeking (also called drawing attention) is behaving in a way which is in pursuit of attention from others. Where such behaviour is excessive and inappropriate, the term is often used pejoratively in respect of childrens' behaviour in front of peers, or negative domestic interactions. Enjoying the attention of others is socially acceptable in some situations.[1] In some instances, however, the need for attention can lead to difficulties and may highlight underlying ones.

As A Vet I Question The Value Of My Service And If It Was Worth It

As a taxpayer, I'm pretty certain that any time spent by this DUmpmonkey in the military was a waste of both time and money.

DUmmies like him are the ones who spent their enlistment locating sources of weed and heroin.

They're now the ones with the long greasy gray ponytails and the dirty fatigue jackets.

No, DUmmy, if you ever actually served, your service wasn't of any value, just like the rest of your sorry life.

49. I Am Appalled By The Mean Spiritedness That Infests The Nation Now.

Mean spiritedness toward poor people, sick people, minorities, gays, or anyone who supposedly gets government help is just plain unAmerican. Veterans actually are 2nd class citizens when it comes to treatment and benefits. A job a Walmart or Krispy Kreme at minimum or low wage is an insult to veterans and even working Americans. Vets make good cannon fodder and economic fodder when they return. And the damaged ones get pretty much thrown aside.

And there is no mention of our KIA's in Afghanistan anymore. I don't care that one asshole called me an embarrassment. They have their head up their ass as far as I am concerned. I wonder if they ever served. If they did then they really do not get it.

The point is that we allow the GOP to attack these people and actually cut vets benefits while they blame Dems or corner them to do it. Then people vote for these DIRTY ROTTEN BIGOTED HATEFUL BASTARDS. I have no use for the GOP at any level. What makes it worse is that Dems seem to have no spine too often.

So what are vets serving for? They are serving so that Koch's and their billionaire allies can rape just about everyone and everything on the planet. Somehow risking coming home for the rich Koch scum is outrageous. America should be about economic and social justice and not about economic pillage of workers.

Their constant focus on the Koch brothers reminds me of a mental patient in an asylum that keeps seeing talking dogs. It has to be a mental illness. Come to think of it, with all the admissions of having psychiatrists, mental issues, drug use, etc., I'd say about 75% of the DUmp wouldn't be allowed a vote in the 1800's as they'd all be forcibly committed to asylums.

37. I enlisted in the Navy so I would not be drafted to be canon fodder in Viet Nam.

I was stationed on a troop transport (USS George Clymer APA-27) that hauled marines to Viet Nam. I can still see the faces of some of the marines on board. Some knew they were not coming back. You could tell by looking at them, Kids, my age at the time. We were barely out of the harbor after unloading them in Viet Nam, when we received word some of them were dead already. Less than an hour off the ship - dead. 18/19 year olds. Kids, just out of high school. No chance to live their lives.
No one can tell me Viet Nam was worth it.We finally left and peace broke out there.[\b]

It can be answered in three simple words.
"So do we."
There was no value to "your service", therefore it has no worth.
You were a turd in a punch bowl. Go kill yourself.
