Senator Kerry Waffles is fightin' mad that people with No Military Experience question his patriotism and qualifications on Defense issues and the War on Terrorism. Okay Senator. I have one heck of a lot more military experience than you do, and I challenge you on those issues. Not as much on the patriotism issue - but certainly on the rest. On the patriotism side - I just don't like what you say your vision for America is.
I'm tired of the whole draft thing. Clue: Not everybody eligible for the draft got drafted. People took advantage of loopholes thoughtfully provided by the political class. Fine. Better than running to Canada, in my mind. You chose to go serve. Great.
Guess what. Being a combat vet does not make you the most qualified to run a war. Ask Lincoln about McClellan. Y'know - I've got one hell of a lot more military experience than you do, bubba. I've commanded hundreds of people. I've been a planner at the operational level. Guess what - I'm not ready to take Gen. Abizaid's place. Neither are you. But then - that's not the job you're after is it? You've never seen an intelligence program you couldn't vote against - but you bitch about intelligence failures. You've never seen a weapons program you couldn't vote against but you 'support the troops'. Pardon my yawn. No, not all programs and systems are good. Some should be voted against. But just about all of 'em?
What are qualifications? Oh, I dunno. How about having been Secretary of Defense during a war? Vice President during a war? A Vice President who was a lot more clued into what was going on than Truman was? But Truman did manage to fill FDR's shoes those last coupla months, didn't he? Getting my point here? (Of course not, Waffles doesn't read this blog!) Make your points about policy and what you'll do differently - and a few more specifics would be nice, other than "I'll ask Jacques and Gerhard and Kofi what to do."
We know you were in Vietnam. We'd heard about it somewhere.
So, let's have a caption contest!
SWWBO suggests, "Pull my finger..."
I suggest: "Even though I hate everything that the Imperial Armorer stands for and believes in, you should still join that right-wing reactionary b*st*rd's Castle Argghhh! Fighting Fusileers for Freedom and donate to Spirit of America! See, I'm trying to look just like him now, only I have this botox'd face instead of cool helmet thingy."
What do you suggest? I'll donate $25 in the winners name to SOA!
"See that protester's sign over there? Good. Destroy it. I didn't fight in Vietnam so people could have freedom of speech."
"See that protester's sign over there? Good. Destroy it. I didn't fight in Vietnam so people could have freedom of speech."
(ed. note - normally we delete the excess posts... but then the one next under wouldn't make sense, and we'd of had to delete that - and then we couldn't have made our own comment below that... so this one stays!)
Ack! Sorry 'bout the double post. This cadet will now go smoke himself by way of punishment.
Um, Cadet - here at Castle Argghhh! we practice "Don't Ask, Don't tell!"
Duly noted, Sir. I'll make a point not to ask.
Sly dog! Disrespectful pup! When you get branched, I'm getting ahold of your instructors, whelp.
You'll beeee soooorrrreeeeeeee!
"I want YOU to be the last man to die!"
Ooo. That' a cold one!
"A Louie Louie, whoooo-oh, we gotta go"
"John Kerry, threatening a US serviceman that appeared in his audience and asked why he voted against the $87b military appropriation for serviceperson's in Iraq."
"I did not have any relations with that Botox."
Uncle John wants YOU!
To wear the blue helmet and do whatever Kofi and France and I tell you to do!
You, down in front with the nice package... No, ma'am, not you - that guy! Yeah, you! Report to dressing room B, please; Teresa's hungry.
(second entry. is that allowed?)
"That way, no wait...THIS way....NO wait...."
Multiple entries aren't allowed... they're encouraged!
I'm watching Kerry on Meet the Press right now BTW. It took him exactly 50 seconds to bring up Vietnam. I checked my clock on the end table because it startled me that he would be so obvious. 10:00:50 by my clock when he made his first reference to Vietnam.
When I served in Vietnam, I was decisive, yes DECISIVE! And if elected, I could become decisive again!

Now you listen here: John Cretain was a Great Canadian Leader!
