After running into one of the local yokals and listening to him brag up how great the war in Iraq was "keeping them terrorists out of America" I asked him, seeing as his boys were about the same age as mine, if he would encourage his boys to join up? his answer was "Hell no, they need to go to school, find jobs and get theirs lives established, besides I don't want to bury one of them, I just can't imagine what that would be like!"
Well I do know what it is like to bury your own *****; It's been a ****** miserable hell for the last year and a half. I cut my oldest boy down from the tree he hung himself from and buried him 3 days latter. he was 22. My other *** a couple of months latter told me he volunteered to go over and that he was going to be a machine gunner with the National Guard. And I am proud as hell of him. Neither of us believe much in this war, but as a vet, I understood his need to go.
What burns my ass, is these so called Patriots that don't mind sending other peoples' **** into harms way but draw the line at having their own ******** go.
Miserable hypocrates if you ask me.
If I am wrong about feeling this way, then tell me so. Maybe I'm just a shallow grieving ****** that can't see "the Big picture" here. It's just the hypocrocy of "I support the war as long as no one in my ****** has to serve" that gets my anger up.
