Bill, you should keep quiet when you haven't got a clue. Or maybe you'd like to tell me the source of your information that I'm a snot nosed kid with no real world exposure and that I'm insulting men who've risked their lives for me to enjoy my standard of living.

The main point now is who's risking their lives this very moment, and is that necessary for the benefit of all of us? All of the silly and non-sequitorial justifications for that sacrifice and death have been popping like soap bubbles. Many conservative Americans are criticizing the justifications offered in support of the war, and the deficit is climbing while we are spending billions and billions for a cause that may be unreachable, no matter how many lives we send into nothing or how much treasure we waste there.

I KNOW what it's like to get tossed into the meat grinder for silly and arrogant fantasies by men in power. There are others that post on this thread that know as well. Men like Steve Dietrich who have the real sense of the horror of war FOR THOSE THAT ARE IN REAL COMBAT. It's a deception for those that don't to imply they have the experience.

Jlallen may have been there and done that as implied in some of his posts and some posts of his supporters, like yourself, however that seems totally inconsistent with his recent admission that he's been an attorney for about 18 years, don't you think? Maybe it's time you reviewed your naive acceptance of the "war experience" credentials of Jlallen and asked him directly, just as I have?

Have you ever considered that maybe it's time YOU stopped insulting men who've risked their lives fighting for their country?
