Subject: RE: BS: American Soldiers Torturing Iraqis
Once again, GUEST, you show that you lack depth. You use the old tactic of speaking falsehoods long enough that they become truth, or so you think. You call me militaristic, when all it takes is a search of my posts on this issue to know that I am not. When you start to lose the intellectual debate you switch to broad generalizations that simply aren't true. Very elementary debate tactic. I don't have an objection to hating war, I don't even have an objection to hating the military establishment. But when you extend that to all of your neighbors that have served in the military, because they felt the need to answer the call, you step across the line. And you show yourself for a miserable human being with an axe to grind because folks won't tell you how special you are.

By the way, don't I recall you telling us once that your family was military at one point? What does that say about them?

By the way, I taught for a number of years as well.
