No I do not think USA Today is part of a conspiracy to destroy America. But when you use links that are based (like that one) on "data from an unreleased federal study" I think you might be. Look, you don't get it. I went to school in America from 1948-1962. I have been a member of the American military community for the 41 years since. I did not learn about America from Peter Arnett and CNN News...nor did I learn about America from the internet. My lessons have been learned on the ground...front and center of the classroom. I do not need crutches or links to discuss America with you. I am American. This is my country. I am an American fighting man. I am not giving it to you or any other dumbbutt that wants to make a name for himself shooting America down with unfair and flat out wrong criticism. Sun Tzu, General Patton said it best, "I read your book you bastard." If you are looking for a fight about America...you come on. I am ready willing and able. If you are looking to continue to put America down with garbage posts and links to nowhere, you do not have to come on...I'll continue come to you. You don't get it. America, Americans and the American government are one and the same to us. You attack one and you attack all. I am sick and tired of listening to half baked anti-American ideas like yours with no basis in fact. If you think there is a difference between America and Americans you missed the boat a long long time ago. I respect your right to dissent...Hell I fought for you to have that right...and damnit! You are going to respect my right to dissent too and you are going to respect my right to call your lies and falsehoods about America garbage. You can burn my flag. There are many ways to that...and I will let you. But I will never forget and never forgive you for doing it. I am no longer willing to stand by and let anyone mouth off with lies the way you have been about America without a challenge. The rules have changed big boy. You have to justify yourself these days to be anti-American. I no longer have to justify being an American. Lean on us if you must and we will support you and help you. Lean against us and you will have a problem...I promise.
