Elected Flag wavers who suck
I'm a vet. I come from a military family. I have a son on active duty. I live in a military town. I have never heard more praise for the military in my life than I heard in today's senate testimony.

If all these rich fucks think that the military is so great, why don't they have their children or grandchildren join up? They are all so careful to heap praise on "our brave Soldiers". It makes me sick. These people have no concept of what military life is like.

They don't know who is brave, who is honorable, who is cowardly and who is warped. It's all empty, uninformed platitudes.

5. Nah, SEpatriot...
THAT particular chickenhawk never dodged a fight in all his celluloid life.

The mascot would be closer to Foghorn, a windbag chicken who'd pretend to be a hawk when he could get something from it.

7. Well, at least some Democratic politicians ...
have been in the military, in wartime yet. Of course, some war vets are no longer in office, having been smeared by GOP attack dogs. And even a Republican war vet, McCain, has experienced that treatment.
