Re: It really is sad that things of this nature said by NOCMan:All the have to do to get it passed is to tie it to a defense spending bill. No senator will vote against it. I bet you haven't spent a day in the military service of your country.
I suggest you put your butt on the line someday for something greater then your own self worth. Then maybe you will get an inkling of what the men and women that all volunteer to serve understand with there hearts.
Despite what you may think the USA is involved in a war not of our choosing. Do not forget it was first brought to our shores with thousands of lives lost. It was not a war of our choosing but a war of very different beliefs. I for one will not sell this country short because of the short term memory I see happening with this post.
To not fund armed forces involved in a battle that were put in harms way by the very government and people that they are willing to die to protect is in itself an act of cowardice.
If you disagree with the war effort then get them home and do what you wish. But please do not cause harm to those who are at risk doing what there countrymen sent them to do.
Nobody on earth hates war more then the military itself. Ask the next patriot in uniform I'm sure thats what they will tell you.
