![]() "POIUYT" wrote in message ... Well, we cannot attack the Bush twins nor any others their age or families because we still have an all volunteer force. No one is forced into uniform nowadays and I believe that is just plain wrong. EVERY AMERICAN should spend some time in uniform and somewhere overseas to finally appreciate what we have here. No freedom-loving American advocates forcing anyone into uniform. |

One can be a freedom loving American but have to understand the price. I know of a whole two generations that paid that price. If we aren't willing to pay that price then we don't deserve freedom. |

By your definition all the major forces of WWII were "slave" armies. The NVA was also a "slave" army. So was Saddam's. So is Israel's. So maybe your as full of **** as a Thanksgiving turkey.

wrote: My statement is obviously correct, you could not challenge it. I did not challenge it. I only pointed out a historical fact. Some "slave" armies won, some lost. It's interesting that you stuff your turkeys with ****, it possibly explains a lot. We have better recipies here in Canukistan. I met some fine Canadians at Ft. Knox earlier this year. I've relatives in Toronto. I've visited many times over my 12 lustrums. Most I've met were "salt of the earth" folks. But there are exceptions to every rule. My comment addresses the following exchange: Regarding mandatory, uniformed service, McNicoll says, "No freedom-loving American advocates forcing anyone into uniform." Hunt replies: "One can be a freedom loving American but have to understand the price. I know of a whole two generations that paid that price. If we aren't willing to pay that price then we don't deserve freedom." You then chime in with a non-sequitur: "The last time you went for a slave army, it didn't work out too well." Aside from the sheer illogiic of your comment you display the typical lack of historical knowledge or perspective common in North American Yuppiescum and their spawn. I'm not sure what your point was. I doubt you know what your point was. Bill Kambic Haras Lucero, Kingston, TN Mangalarga Marchador: Uma Raça, Uma Paixão |

If we aren't willing to pay that price then we don't deserve freedom. Ironically, freedom also requires us to tolerate drooling half-wits with Internet access. Why don't give us a break and go back to teaching junior college poli-sci? Cheers ==bob |
