Hmm, seems to be a pattern developing here.

Here's a pattern for you: of all the major leaders in World War II, only
one was a combat veteran. Which one was he? Hint: his first name was Adolf.

So what does prior military service do for a political leader? Use the
aforementioned Adolf as a case in your essay.

Really? Every poll I've seen supports abortion.



Have you noticed that the only people that advocate abortion are those that
have already been born?


That is the lamest rejoinder I've ever read.

Since there is no Military requirment to be President your statment is
inflamatory and un-just.

Tell us.. have you ever put your name on that line and signed up to take
a bullet for the freedoms that you enjoy today?

I have, Veteran of '91 Gulf War.... Same war where the UN told us that
the Iraq border was the stopping line and we couldnt go anyfarther..Iraq
said thanks by filling mass graves (400,000+ dead counted so far),
provinding 15,000 US dollars (UN Aid money) to each of the families of
successful Palenstine terrorists (Murders), medical care for AlQueda
(Zarqaui).. and the list goes on and on....

We in '91, put the people of Kuwait on the long list of Nations that
the US has freed from tyranny and now our Military and President can say
that they have freed another 25 million Iraqi people from the death grip
of a Tyrant.

So these "people" that have never served in the military and are
starting wars so far by my count have given freedom and the chance to
live without fear of being raped,tortured or murdered to approx 50-60
MILLION people.

its asses like you that destroy the good that this country is doing, you
state faceless, factless accusations and spit on the very freedoms that
people around the world are dying to get to each day. You are a sick
individual

Well, so was Winston (Boer War), so was Benito, so were all the Japanese
leaders...

Churchill and Truman were combat veterans.

Churchill was a combat veteran, but not in the Boer War. His army career
included fighting at Omdurman in 1898 with the Nile Expeditionary Force.
During the Boer War he was a correspondent for a London newspaper.

I believe Mussolini was conscripted in to the Italian army but was injured
in training and released without ever seeing combat.

Attacking the poster is for when you have nothing to attack
the argument with. Consider the source.
