Your "kid" volunteered just like both of mine.
It is very understandable not to trust ANYONE that is not willing to put themselves in the same situations you want to put our troops in. Its YOUR right to wage war with other people children?
I will try one more time it's EVERYBODY'S right to have an opinion even if their Kids aren't over there.


If you want to debate war and not get personal don't talk to me. It is personal for me. I live it every time the phone rings.
I hope you don't share that with your son, he has enough to worry about. Knowing this mom can't handle it, is only 1 more thing to take his off whats important,staying alive, and doing the job.


Heres the education I got from my last call: You want to know what the medics call the brain matter that is stuck on their shoes "OIF". damn I got OIF all over my friends cd player and it stinks. SO I ask what the heck is that? It stands for Operation IRAQI freedom. Just lovely, brain matter and bone is operation iraqi freedom and it is a common term they use everyday. Imagine being covered in blood and shit so much it has a vernacular expression.
I don't have to imagine to hard

I have very little to say to arm chair soldiers. Sure it is your right to vote but I think you'd give that vote a lot of thought if it was YOUR kid.
again I tried to avoid this because it wasn't germane to "our" discussion but it is my kids, and me before that.

Now you are talking about boots on the ground in the Sudan? DO you think we could finish the Iraqi war 1st?
We need to re-read my post about "boots on the ground" I think you are a little confused.


It sickens me how you people feed on war to make yourselves feel like you are doing something good and then call it an American right. Honestly do you have kids? What are their ages oh thats right that is PERSONAL we have to keep this war at a distance wouldn't want to get personal wouldn't want to attach REAL faces.
Voicing your option is an American right, one worth defending at any time.
It's personal to me.


We are never going to agree on anything
Yes we are, it is my sincerest hope that your son returns to you safely.
