I've been floating around reading and re-reading some of the most recent posts concerning current world affairs, most posted ( or cut and pasted) by the same individual, and most on the same beat down subject.
On this little jaunt I stumbled across one of this individuals comments concerning a number of those of us that seem to think along the same lines. As he pointed out a few personalities he mentioned ' Two Braggarts, War heroes who know it all.'
Admittedly this "pack" tends to stand by their convictions no matter what, and alot of times it gets ugly, myself no exception. What I can't seem to find anywhere one of the "pack" proclaiming to be a War Hero. I can find countless times where any number of us mention our service to our Country in many of the recent conflicts, but nary a proclomation of Heroism.
Now maybe it's just me but I find this comment damn insulting. One of the two you refer to may be me. It could be any 2 of the handful of those of us on the "same page of music." The proper referral would be VETERAN. And I will take the liberty of speaking for all, Damn proud VETS. Proud of our service, proud of our accomplishments, proud of the Country we live in.
I don't care to jump on the multiple screen name wagon because frankly I find it funny. What I will say is it's pretty spooky the similarities two individuals on this site have in their postings. Maybe it's just coincedence, I don't care. I'm going to refrain from throwing any names out here. The individual I am referring to knows who they are.
I don't care to have you respond to this my friend, in all of your life you'll never be able to justify a statement as you have made. You've not walked in our shoes, you have no idea of the pride involved, and if one of us brags maybe we earned the right. Maybe someday in your meager little world you'll get out of your back yard and do something worthwhile other than riding on the shirt tail of others. Maybe. My belief is you'll probably do better staying in you cut and paste world. It's safe there.

As the new year approachs and this seems to be a year for change(?) I figured I'd change my BIO. Much more exciting than sorting my socks. Again. So let's see.... Chief Petty Officer in the Seabees(RES).Proud Iraqi Freedom Vet.(3 tours, voluntary), and have spent more time in a hooch in Iraq than in my own home since 2004. I'm a cranky, miserable, politically incorrect Father of 4 wonderful kids, 5 pit bulls, a ferret and a chihuahua. My creatures are my kids too! Married to the best woman in the world who has been my driving force for the past 25 years and I will go to the grave for what is mine. Believe in the war and believe GWB made the right decision and stuck by it, can't hate a guy for that. Firmly believe that on a whole the Iraqi people are good people having had the pleasure to interact with quite a few. Am I happy with the election? Not at lberty to say. Will we survive as the best and greatest nation in the world? Absolutely. The zombies will be kept at bay Future plans for the coming year is to get back home and catch up on the year and a half I have been gone,maybe ride my bicycle around the world,(not really), and stay alive one more year! That's it, that's all there is. God bless our Troops and bring them home alive and Victorious. SEMPER GUMBY, DAWG
