Geez. Now I'm going to be inclined to think the post is going to contain a reasoned and level-headed response, simply based on my quick glance at the avatar.

Then I'll read the post, and quickly realize my mistake ....

Do you guys all fight your own fires? I sure hope you don't rely on the fire department to come put your house out if it catches fire. I suppose you catch your own criminals? Sure hope you don't expect the Police to arrest someone for mugging you.

I guess I never realized how self-reliant Liberals were in that they did everything for themselves instead of those that choose to perform their jobs.

If you are not a policeman, or a Fireman, why aren't you?

because i'm not one of the people that was cheering the Fire Chief to go to the other side of town and start a fire.

in the wrong house.

and to ignore a big effin' fire 2 doors down.

that's why.

what is your reason, smokey ?

But no shame that you've chosen to send others to die for a lie in your stead... And not just that, but to cheer on the Great Leader who sends them off to war with the lie on his lips.

Pardon me, but your moral angst seems misplaced.

Did anyone read realjohnboy's post? There is no draft. People signed up to be in the military of their own choosing. Each person decided that they wanted a career as a WARRIOR.

Then again, there probably were some people who thought that being in the military was a cushy way to garner some government benefits, never realizing that they might be called upon to do what they signed on to do. Fight!

I am totally against the draft. I think that it is a form of slavery. But if you CHOOSE that career, you need to realize the ramifications, before signing on the dotted line.

I have a hard time reconciling that conservatives trumpet the fact these soldiers volunteer so liberals shouldn't cluck over them being in war, but are also supposed to sympathize with and cluck over their woundings and deaths. Why.... if that's what they volunteered for? Conservatives scream at anti war people that we're supposed to support our troops out of one side of their mouths... and that we should stop whining because after all these guys volunteered out of the other side of their mouths....
as usual... no consistency.

And I'm not picking a fight with you Phoenix... your post just reminded me of it.....

The military;
