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.

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'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...

28. What part of that oath...

... involves handing over people from your own force to the enemy because they have differing political philosophies.

The point stands...

Then-Chief Justice John Marshall observed, “Between a balanced republic and a democracy, the difference is like that between order and chaos.”

John Adams warned in a letter, “Remember democracy never lasts long. It soon wastes, exhausts, and murders itself. There never was a democracy yet, that did not commit suicide.”

Haters are going to hate and leftists DUches are the MOST hateful people I have ever seen. Stormfront looks like a kittah site compared to vile intolerance and wishes for death of a person(s) that disagree with you.
When you are the beneficiary of someone’s kindness and generosity, it produces a sense of gratitude and community.

When you are the beneficiary of a policy that steals from someone and gives it to you in return for your vote, it produces a sense of entitlement and dependency.

To answer his original question, I have no idea what your service was worth to you (assuming you actually served), but for a grateful nation it was a net loss (assuming you actually served) you stupid sack of monkey nuts!

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.

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.

I see DUmmy cherokeeprogressive shows up in that thread.  He's the one that posted a GBCW in the lounge last month, and said that he was going to reset his DU password by closing his eyes and hitting random keys so that he would never be able to log in again.  I guess he cheated.

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.
