Not much has changed in the 80 odd years since. Other than the fact that the Military Industrial Complex has become even more insidious. All this attention on entitlement reform just feels like a clumsy attempt to misdirect me away from the elephant in the room. I mean it's wearing a goddam fucking pink tutu and spinning in pirouettes for christs sake, how you gonna keep me from noticing it?

And here's a rendition you can beat off to.

A cutie, but a brainwashed one. My, my how liberal education can turn a sponge into impermeable mass of junk that spews out liberal talking points. She should concentrate on another career - porn maybe?

Yeah, those idiots in the armed forces. Dunces. Is that what you think of them? Those people who fought in WWII are trained in much the same way we are trained today. Shame on you for dissing people whose shoes you are not fit to shine and who created a world where you people like you can spout off a bunch of stereotypical crap. Well Girly Man - the day is gonna come when are going to need these guys because people like you are driving this country into the ground with your misdirected thinking. So go ahead - beat off - it's the only contribution you have left to the discourse.

I'm not saying anything about anyone in the armed forces (I'm a USN veteran myself). I'm saying something about the private sector douchebags in the Military Industrial Complex trying to rob the taxpayers blind at every turn. Which, by the way, is the same goddam point that was being made throughout this entire thread. How do I know this? Because I fucking see it every day and do my best to prevent it. ... I'm starting to think you might be an asshole.
