Friday afternoon rant...

I'd ask her, her definition of the term. I bet it's not event close to what she thinks it means. I have a few friends who have responded similarly. It appears she cannot keep politics out of your personal relationship. The problem is not with you, it is her. If you value this relationship IMO you should bring up the topic, If you don't care, give her the boot. You already know she cannot put aside petty differences.

She doesn't support the military because she dones't support the war

think Vietnam war protests

Or maybe it was an email spam filter.

nope, they don't have it

Silverchild - you make me as proud as if you were my own son.

I absolutely support the troops I believe they have a job to do and are told to do it and do the best they can for it. ITs a high risk job that not everyone can or will do. This gets my respect.

What I dont like is when they are put on a holier than thou pedastol.

I REALLY don't like it when someone says that the soldiers are in Iraq fighting for my freedoms.

My response is this if thats what they are fighting for over there then KEEP my freedoms, just bring them home I am tired of worrying about more of my brothers dieing. (Americans are my brothers by the way)

My Best friend Growing up the only person close to me that was in Iraq ( I know many others but this guy is like a brother to me) Has come home and I was so elated that i seriously had a tear fall, And I am getting a bit watery eyed now thinking about it.

Where was I going with this ummm.
