jeez buzz I haven't the faintest clue why I would think you want to spare with me ..
I NEVER mentioned you specifically were a liberal. By the way,
Not by name but when my name is at the top of the post then one can only believe that the person it was the intended to annoy was the person it was addressed to
Thank You for your service to our country. Your welcome ... I did it with a glad heart .... I even worked at a VA hospital after I got out
You seem SO ANGRY towards me. Duh!
Why is that? Is it because I hold opposing views to yours? Nope b/c you keep telling us we are going to hell
I think maybe so. Hardly! why would I care what you believe? I just don't think you should assume that hell is my destination ... I believe it presumptuous that you think Muslims, Jews and all the rest are going to hell b/c they don't believe in Jesus .... you ever heard of the saying there is more than one road that leads to "Chicago"?
I have no doubt that you may see yourself as a patriot to some degree. To a degree? Your kind is the reason so many people around the world hate us!
You have a different way of getting to it than I do. Yes, it's called Peace, Love and Brotherhood ... the survival of mankind .....
I'll agree, some of those kids serving now went in for an education. But in doing so, they also have the knowledge that they might have to fight also. As in the case of the Marine Corps, EVERYONE is a rifleman first. Regardless of what their MOS might say,..ie... cook, clerk, etc. If called upon, you will have to go to war. That's all I was saying. I started off as a combat medic and was in the first graduating class of women and men in coeducational basic training so let it rest on the patriotic rhetoric when you talk to me .....
And as far as volunteering. You don't know me either. I am a member of the Marine Corps League. Whoop-de-friggin-do!We do a lot of volunteer work. You are assuming just as you thought I was. OK? OK. Try a little patience.
| You try having tolerance and I will try the patience thing .... do we have an accord? |
OK Deb,
Final round... I hope. I tried to address the points you brought up. Yet you still seem to want to be combative. Not once did I bring up religion. I said before, I wouldn't do that unless I was specifically asked something about it. I mentioned the Marine Corps League only in response to your remark about "putting my money where my mouth is". And what do I get for that? Just no pleasing you is there? Now my volunteer work isn't up to your standards. Is it safe to assume that you just don't like anything I say, just because it's me saying it? You should get rid of that chip you're carrying. Follow your own advise and you try having tollerance. I'll do so as well. I would hope to be able to get along with all yall in here and have some intelligent debate. No matter which side of the fence we are on. So, can we bury the hatchet or what?
