What will we leave to posterity?

Murph...

Easy now, brother... easy now.

David has nothing to do with the ideas posted.

Just a heartfelt response to ye...

Murph is not, a "disgrace."

Shall we go back to the beginning and quote ALL of OUR own emotional statements?

Neil :

Can you read ? I cut and pasted what Murph said.... I DIDN'T UTTER THOSE WORDS. Get a grip.

Andy :

Insulting fellow veterans on this board concerning their service and disabilities has NO place here, EVER. If you think it does, please explain when, where, why, and how. "Nuf Sed.

Lastly...politics and war....HMMM ...seems the Vietnam War was totally driven by politics. Our Congress ( more politics ) sold out their allies ( disregarding many, many treaties ) and allowed many millions to be slaughtered throughtout S.E. Asia. Trying to separate politics and war is like trying to separate the light and dark of the universe.

Neil :

I am not a Democrat, Socialist, Liberal, Leftist, or any of the other convenient labels that you seem to apply to anyone who disagrees with you. I am an Independent Libertarian, and I hold dear to my heart the principles upon which this nation was founded. NO political entity or group in this country or anywhere else tells me what to think, say, or believe in. First and foremost, I am a born again Christian, and I believe that salvation through Jesus Christ is the only way to fulfill one's life's purpose.

Over the 5 1/2 years I have been posting along with many of you, I venture to say almost no one's ideas, philosopies, belief's,
view's, political positions, or religious groundings, have been changed by all the many thousands of arguments on here. I seem to be one of the rare exceptions, as you may recall, as I went from about as far right as you can get. What does this say ? Draw your own conclusions.

What Andy said!

And my own two cents worth. If any one can explain these two events to me and then explain why they were never fully reported in the press to us truthfully as they should have been and why we should play stooge for Israel and Bush in a truthful and documented manner I'd like the opportunity to know so I can stop telling you all that Martial Law is real and is on the way and we are being fear conditioned into it. Nice PSYOP, by our own government.

1. The attack on the USS Liberty during the 1967 Israeli war.

2. What happened to the 3/7 Cav at Baghdad Airport on April 5, 2003 during the fight to capture Baghdad.

Thank you

Ay no Doc, you got it backwards again. Those are your assertions that are presumably based on some study or evidence or gut feel, therefore you own them. If asked, I can do an objective review of information, ask tough questions or independently research opposing information. But all and all, I don?t feel compelled to talk you into or out of anything. I assume you have some threshold of what you find believable and if that threshold is so low that the data makes ya crazy, then change the threshold or the criteria of believability. If crazy is a chosen lifestyle, then that?s OK too.
I have read some of the articles you put up and my threshold is the first pothole of credibility found, and I read no further. And really, some of those potholes go clear to China and beyond.
And by the way, I read ?Attack on the Liberty? years ago and still have it in my library so that isn?t like an unknown.

As to this thread, if anyone hasn?t established their family legacy by now, it?s too frigging late. Don?t know about Alfa Males, but most certainly VN Vets are survivors and have put up with more cultural bullshit, hatred, exploitation, insults and pretenders than is due any group. I still want to get the beer concession near Fonda?s grave site, sign reading ?Buck a pitcher, pee where you wish, proceeds to the VA program of voted upon choice?. I think I could sell several tandem 18 wheelers worth of kegs and still run out early.

What does calling: "Democrats/Socialists/Leftists posing as Liberals" and/or what such actually are,...have to do with the typically vile, public and personal ridiculings, insultings and character assassinations of Fellow Americans (Veterans inclusive) and/or DNC norm???

A good example of DNC bull occurred about 8 Swift Boaters (+Kerry), when publicly claiming such were all HEROES.
Whereas about 3-400 Swift Boaters were are publicly declared liars and malcontents.
BOTH VARIATIONS WERE FLAT-OUT WRONG, and quite the opposite,...just as most all else blathered by such deceivers.

Besides, it's actually impossible belittling DNC types more so than The DNC and their fanatical hacks belittle themselves daily and publicly, already and anyway.
So, just keep up the good and/or self-destruct works,...Oh: "Recapture The White House" AT ANY COST TO AMERICA crowd.
Such exposures are truly appreciated.

Let me see now--Ive been following the ongoing fights both here and Vets.com for over 5 years now, through 2 national elections and 1 mid term election.
There's been constant name calling, nasty refernces to individual ancestry, hints of bestiality and perversion, name calling, extreme partisanship. People have stomped out swearing never to return, some have , some haven't. If you all were in the same room , there'd be gunfire.
Isn't that what you come here for? I'm not going to get into who started it or who does the most of it nor even who's right or wrong. But you guys come here because you like to sling the mud, both sides of us.
I know Ive seen my side described in every vile term imaginable, including, traitors, liars and cowards. But that kind of Ann ("Ive never been a fan of the First Amendment") Coulter talk really only demeans the ones who says it.
We all just love to come down and fling shit at each other, admit it.
I do it some but peripatetically--its not how I like to spend my days-- but there's some who spend all their days doing it. I just never talk to the ones that disturb me the most, they do not exist. If you engage with them you know what you'll get.
There should be a place for these people and this is it. Regardless of the Coulterites, there is free speech and this is the place for it. Unrestricted means unrestricted
Remember: "Sticks and Stones May break My Bones But Names Will Never Hurt Me."
Stay good

I wish we'd all quit that.

There's a war on.

Come a day sometime in the future, there'll be plenty of time for shots to be fired here at home... or not.
