But you could encourage them to do so. No emotion, just fact, if you're so convinced, why aren't you over there?

But you could encourage them to do so. No emotion, just fact, if you're so convinced, why aren't you over there?That's a nice appeal to emotion, but you cannot have your own children sign up for military service.
No one said anything about your right to speak your mind.I've done my duty. I earned the right to speak my mind on issues of war.
Is it your opinion that only those whom have served have the right to speak on issues of war?I've done my duty. I earned the right to speak my mind on issues of war.
You may have earned some credibility by doing military service, and grateful Americans thank you for that.I've done my duty. I earned the right to speak my mind on issues of war.
You asked why I wasn't there. I told you whyNo one said anything about your right to speak your mind.
I never even hinted at that, but some who feel guilty about not serving may reach that false conclusionIs it your opinion that only those whom have served have the right to speak on issues of war?
All of us may have that right, but not all of us earned itYou may have earned some credibility by doing military service, and grateful Americans thank you for that.
BUT...
All of us already have the right to speak on issues of war - and every other issue. It's called the First Amendment.
Many of us also hold sacred our DUTY to speak out against this war.
They aren't my termsUnfornately Mach, your terms of what victory
Actually, it's the reality that is clouded by the negavite media reportingis quite clouded by the reality of events on the ground.
Ideology is indeed nice, sometimes. But the defeatist ideology that wants to portray the war as a failure is sorely misguided.Ideology is nice, but reality should be the first and foremost consideration when assessing a situation or event. Something you, the rest of the 24 percenters, and the remaining 6 people in Bush's own staff seem to just ignore.
Again - the rights in the constitution are NOT earned.You asked why I wasn't there. I told you why

Sure they are. They are earned with the blood of Americans, whether you are willing to admit it or not. More importantly, they will remain secure by the blood of Americans or else the right will be lost.Again - the rights in the constitution are NOT earned.

I'm not, what's the deal? Once you leave, you can't reenlist?Are you familiar with current qualifications to enlist?
Huh?So you are not familiar with them? I would imagine if you were, you would have told me. My mistake, I assumed that since you were talking about it, you knew, sorry. I looked, but didn't see anything specific to that.Look them up and get back to me
