Oh yes, I'm a one man foolie factory.Quote:
He dragged this stupid-ass post that's already been trolled around else where on the internet and completely rebuffed up because seconds ago on another thread he was shot to pieces.
Then post it. Let's see.Quote:
Now he ran to this post to make himself yet an ass again. I am simply helping him a bit in his illustration on him being an ass.
Well, maybe I've been ass like sometimes.

Please click on Ghoulman and read his other posts on all of his other troll threads and then comment again.
Troll threads? It's a news article! This from the guy who posts giant obnoxious pictures in threads he doesn't like. At least they are funny these days, the old ones he posted were really rude.Quote:
In either case, if you must know, I have served already thru the first Gulf War.
In the other thread you claimed you served in Vietnam too. Wow, you must be Americas oldest soldier!Quote:
I am much too old to be drafted by now.
Your how old?Quote:
I am somewhat ambivalent about an actual draft since it might introduce subgeniuses with the ilks of Ghouma.
How old?
I noticed you purposely mispelled my username... I wonder why? lol!Quote:
But at the same time, I believe that every single physically able citizen of their respective state should give to their country some sort of public service. It doesn't have to be in the Armed forces. Some sort of peace corp or other rural projects work like the CCC back in the old days would work wonderfully.
George W. pushed this idea after the 200 election if I recall.Quote:

What are you going to do for an encore? Issue a scientific explanation for the magic bullet?
I really, really hope you are of draft age.
He is.
Would you mind going ahead and burn my clothes after you are done wearing them and impersonating me - answering my questions? Thanks... Go ahead and burn the underwear twice if you could... I've already answer those questions from eons ago. I really don't know why you've brought them up again. Don't you have some other thread to go trolling at? The "News" must be slow today.

I have a hard time believing that a "respected newspaper" would in all honesty publish "How Could 59, (etc etc) Be So Dumb?". If that's what passes for "respected" journalism in the UK, I would politely suggest they reexamine their choice of papers.

The anti-American rhetoric of the Guardian and Ghoulman are well documented in their respective sources. I've read them both. Entertaining they are, but informative and reliable they are not.
For sure they both will always tell you the truth, but only half of it.

^^^ read the article - it's quoting American patriots.
That's the thing about people like you who accuse people without facts or even explaination... just childish accusations - you have to show the lie instead of just going around accusing people because you don't like them, or the paper they write for.
Finn - shame on you.

That was the Daily Mirror - a tabloid. It's like getting news from the New York Post *chuckle*
The Guardian is a respected paper with many star writers contributing. This paper is often a good source of top notch journalism.

You may post any one of my posts to prove any "anti-American" sentiment on my part.
And I must point out what crap it is to accuse someone with such a silly, facile, childish, and fascistic term.
To say someone is "anti-American" only shows the accuser to be so fanatically opposed to any other opinion they must attack them.
Grow up.

Interesting that Jeffery Record and W. Andrew Terrill's latest paper for the Startegic Studies Institute of the Army War College is "IRAQ AND VIETNAM: DIFFERENCES, SIMILARITIES, AND INSIGHTS" in which "...The authors conclude that the two conflicts bear little comparison.(emphasis mine) They also conclude, however, that failed U.S. state-building in Vietnam and the impact of declining domestic political support for U.S. war aims in Vietnam are issues pertinent to current U.S. policy in Iraq."

^^^ great post.
These guys at the Strategic Studies Institute of the Army War College are up against the heavy hitters in the article above.
Heavy hitters who, in the past, have actually written policy for previous governments. Particularly the Nixen government.
I find this War College paper to be written by the "students" while the article I posted is coming from the "Masters", people who were direct architects of the Vietnam Conflict. In other words - they are indisputable on this subject.

The more I get to know people the more I like my dogs.
Senior Commanders on the scene? Your the friggen genius, those are former title 10 M***Fukers looking to get press, probably release a book soon.
Here is a little item for you lefty, we are winning, I know because I'm in Iraq.
