I'm curious, which blogs are included in that list from Pentagon? What made you decide to come to this one?

I am happy to see you managed to survive and return safely from Iraq. However, your description of your fellow soldiers is uncalled for. If you want to spew venom about your service in Iraq, you should be aiming at the people that put our armed forces in that meat grinder. Not those that had to endure the same hardships as you.

I get the same feeling Fishin. I could well be wrong, but something about this just doesn't feel right. Almost reads as though written by someone whose grasp of the language isn't quite complete. Of course, with schools today, that could be just about anyone, but something just ain't right.

I agree that something isn't right.

In addition, it always drives me absolutely batshit crazy when people poke fingers at "Pentagon". The soldiers based at the Pentagon are simply that -- soldiers, just like every other soldier. They did not burst onto the world from the head of Zeus, full grown with stars on the collar. To say that they are turning people into mindless killing machines is absurd.

*nods* I get the feeling it is a poor translation from someone who's native language isn't English. The word choices are just "off". I haven't heard anyone use the word "Hobo" outside of bad country-western songs in 30 or so years.

Add to that "Thanks God" which is something I have not ever heard a native English speaker say, and the conspicuous lack of definite articles.
