Vincent; Picking up where I left off.

I'm a little surprised you think Jesus wouldn't like me. After all, with his "Turn the other cheek" and "love thy neighbor" schtick, he seems kind of like an 'air headed pussy' to me. I think we'd get along splendidly.

"I do understand that war is sickening and I would never want to be in one,"

"I wish I could be out there taking out our enemies, but I can not."
-Vince

So, what is it? Do you never want to be in a war or do you wish you could be over there? And if you never want to be in a war, how are you going to be an officer on a Nuclear Submarine?

(referring to GA) "And unlike these other idiots, I take you seriously."

I beg your pardon, GA and I are on excellent terms as far as I know.
As I am with Mcclain, currently serving, and George, ex-marine. So I respectfully request you blow me.

I think you should tell them female US soldier currently being held by the Iraqi army that when you want to describe an idea of the military you don't agree with you use the word 'effeminate'. I think she'd enjoy that. Do you not like Girls? I'm not sure where you got the idea that in the military I'd be checking button to crotch ratios. I more had in mind making sure they didn't kill people who were surrendering or refuse to treat enemy wounded. If you see that as the same thing, well... I guess you're an idiot.

"My friend who was also a commander in Vietnam, was in the Army"
That's convenient, but it's implausible that you have a friend.

"Sorry I've dated beautiful women that were intelligent."
Was she an officer on a Nuclear Submarine?

"Would you like a scan of the letter I received?"
Absolutely. I'm sure someone here would be happy to host the image and we can post it.

"I don't get a hard-on from people dying"
I never said you did. I said you get hard-on from TALKING and FANTASIZING about people dying. I don't think you know Jack Diddly Squat about dying. Although I'm fairly certain that you will now leap to the fore with personal friends you've held in your arms as their life’s blood slipped through your recently trim, tanned, fingers.

So, a traitor’s death, traditionally involves sending the head to his folks?

"Ya know, nuts, the things you will only possess if you buy a can of Planters'. "
You’re talking about testicles as some sort of metaphor for manliness, right? And your saying that killing a traitor, removing his head, tattooing it and sending it to his parents is in some way reflective of manliness? 'Cause, silly me, I thought being married and fathering children and raising them was reflective of my manliness, in, you know, the testicular sense. But, you know, you had a girlfriend for almost year, so your down with what I'm saying.

"Dreaming of things isn’t my style. I take action in the way I show my duty to this country."

Uh huh. And since you never want to be in a war and you can't serve even though you wish you could, just which way is that? Talking big? 'Cause I gotta say, the most devastating weapon in the American arsenal is windy message board rhetoric.

"I LOVE my country, and I show it every day. Do you, Max? Like I have asked, what have you done today to earn your freedoms that people greater than us have fought for and are fighting for now? "

I do indeed love my country, loony boy, I show it by voting for the candidates I want, protesting policies I disagree with and teaching my kids basic American civics and encouraging people to laugh a John Ashcroft. But please. What have YOU done today etc. etc? Write to me? I can only imagine the relief in a young soldiers eyes.


"Actually, in a military setting, I would be calm, collective and ready to do what is necessary to kill/injure the enemy enough for my squad to win the battle. "
I applaud your admirable self-knowledge. I cannot imagine what I would do in a combat situation. I've heard they're really scary. And you mean 'collected'. If you were 'collective' you'd be a Marxist work unit.

"I bring up rape because it is the most demoralizing thing that can happen to a woman. "
Yeah, here's the thing, though, you bring it up kind of a lot. You want to fight Rape? Tell your congressman if he doesn't put pressure on the Naval academy and the airforce to actively enforce it's sexual harassment laws and prosecute rapists quickly and to the fullest extent of the law you won't vote for him next time his term comes up. Either that, or just walk around looking for a street rape to intervene in. 'Cause that's going to happen. Or go fight, for God's sake. Put yourself to the test.. Stop yippity yapping about being man of action and be one.

"Never said I was big and tough."
"Never said I wanted to be Batman "
" Sorry, I only read comics, I dot believe I am in them. "
Followed by...
" The only two things I fear is God and the IRS."

BABY! There is NOTHING more Manlified than cognitive dissonance.


I'm sorry, what was your medical history again, something about breaking out in hives? And being overweight? Maybe I'm wrong but tat just sounds a little 'pussified' to me. And if you can't join up, how the HELL did you get an offer to be an officer on a Nuclear Submarine? Forgive me for being confused but you're confusing. Or completely full of shit, but hey, benefit of the doubt.

"I worry about Kurdish children. I worry about all kids, that’s why I want this war to be successful, so kids will not live under evil."
Know what I hate? When some right wing windbag puts on a pimp out fit and starts whoring out kids.

"Wow, you can kill Lucifer with one bullet, but there is a 50% chance a kid may get a scrach if you pull the trigger."
God, I love you. You're just so much material.

"Have you EVEN met Iraqi people who had to suffer under Saddam? I met one,"
OH MY GOD, WHAT A SURPRISE! NO WAY! NO WAY!!!!!!!

"Be realistic and quit thinking like a fucking 6 year old flower child. "
Okay, sweetie, as soon as you stop playing army man with your imaginary friends.

"I think its appualing that you had to say that rape is bad and you are against it?"
I didn't. I said it because of your implication I didn't think so. You're the one who can't go three paragraphs without a rape. Christ, what are you, Japanese Pornography?

"Yes, some of the coalition of the willing have bad records, what does that have to do with anything?"
Well, lets see. I THINK it means our objections to evil a spurious and only applied when and if they suit our political needs. I THINK it means that this administration is cynically using the evil of one particular dictator to whip nimrods like you into a frenzy that precludes rational thought and when Evil is convenient for them they're pretty OK with it. I THINK it means it's sad I had to explain that. But I'm glad you agree some of our allies have 'pretty bad records'.

"You called a good moral and just man an idiot and a moron for supporting freeing the slaves of evil."
I did? Wow. Which good moral man are you talking about?

"When you get to meet God, make sure to tell him that you thought a moral man was an idiot and we shouldn't have went in to free a country and do what we are going to do to make the world better."
I will. No, wait, I'll tell him you told me to say that and we'll have a hearty chuckle, first at your grammar, then at your ostentatious certainty and then at your point.

"You are correct, Max. I do have no idea about what kind of man you are. Because you have no qualities of a man besides (I assume) a penis and the ability to ejaculated sperm. "
THANKS FOR THINKIN' OF MY PENIS, FATTY!

"People like me scare you because we know what’s right."
What, you mean pompous jackass message board wind bags who should have the village People following them around singing 'macho man'? Not me baby. I'S ONY AFWAID OF GAWD AND DA IRS

"I have no more time for your stupid ass. Do the world a favor and go back to writing shitty articles for a website. Do your great part in the world. When I become a big part of the social fabric of America, I may mention you at a gathering of people, or even write a book about you. You are a living example of what a boy should never grow up to be."
A.) Stop talking about my ass.
B.) Websites. Plural. And Magazines. And theatre. And Museums. And I will.
C.) make sure the social fabric of which you speak is a nice, stretchy spandex, fatty McFatfat.
D.) When you write your book make sure to use the Big Box, because theres a sharpener in the side.
E.) I TOTALLY burst into tears at that last bit, 'cause right up till then? I thought you kind of secretly admired me.

P.S. DON'T FORGET TO POST YOUR LETTER FROM THE SUBMARINE! THE ONE THAT EXPLAINS WHERE YOU'RE TOO UNHEALTHY TO BE IN THE ARMY BUT HEALTHY ENOUGH TO GO SUBMARINING!

P.P.S. Sspadsy. 'Soldier Sniffing'! That is Too too!

P.P.P.S! Oh! You want to kill anyone who threatens your God! I know I know some other people who thought just that. Who was it now, who was it, I want to say the shriners but I'm sure that's wrong, oh wait, AL QUAEDA! SURVAY SAYS AL QUAEDA!!!
