I think we should all know - the argument being raised |
|
now about the "troops" reactions to the proposed senate "resolution".
They really are just as much bullshit as they appear to be. They are.
I don't think so, I know so.
My boy is 3/2 - Mosul 2x and Baghdad now. It is as clear as it appears - they have a real problem with being sent out for target practice when they are the targets. Big surprise.
I judge a lot from the descriptions I get from him -I admit it - but it sure appears to me they have the same opinion of the war we do. In fact, nearly identical.
I am not from a pacifist family - all males did some war (except me) - but no one alive from a war thinks differently - and I can speak for my parents on this with authority - and they agree.
Don't think you are being unsupportive of the kids opposing the war - on the contrary - you are voicing the concerns they cannot right now - they are too busy getting shot at.

and thank your son for his service.
At the Jasper AR demonstration on Saturday was a family with a son over there. So I know what you say is right.

On deck for deployment. The resolution made him smile. Nuff said.

But those are american kids - and they ain't buying.
We are definately on the right side on history.
And I am sure this is right.

Thank him for what he did - not me. He is a really good kid.
And we WILL bring them home alright. We are the adults in the room, as it turns out.
