    so is it self hate if the government doesnt allow gays knowing theres prominent people in high places that are gay?

    All I'm saying is that everyone likes to point fingers at Uncle Sam for "hating gays" when society can't even get a grip on something like gay marriage. Until a homophobic society relaxes its ass muscles, open gays in uniform are going to be viewed as a disruption to good order and discipline.
    It's a catch-22, that'll take a long time to iron out.

    Nothing new, ex-Nazis set up NASA and were valuable assets during the Cold War.

    I think you should enlist, I'll go back in with you!

    Looks like Miguel was a better man than we gave him credit for.

    Like what you're fighting for? Man, you missed the boat and fell off the dock on that one.

    I see your point, well taken. But, if everyone felt that way, there'd be no one in uniform at all. Not everyone loves every president, not everyone loves every policy the military has, etc. Those in the ranks aren't always happy, but somebody has to stand guard on the wall every day regardless. For instance, I didn't care for a certain draft dodger as commander-in-chief but what can you do?

    well said,bro. also, i thought u couldnt go AWOL and even hold a job at mc donalds after. yet someone becomes president. real nice.


    i see it like this,theres not enough money they make a year to go get shot for free. they have billion dollar contracts with the government and can only afford like 45,000 a year per soldier. i smell a rat. also,if they mention the word "draft",im gone.

    Here's my problem and my outrage,
    There should be no need to say this but I will anyways. I'm heterosexual, happily married to a lovely woman 8yrs my junior and have only know three people who happened to be homosexual/bisexual well in my whole life.

    We have people who feel a love for their nation, powerful enough to make them willing to lay down their lives in service to that great love. People willing to wade through horrors and witness atrocities that would make most of us start screaming and never want to stop, all so we can sleep peacefully in our nice warm beds watching our favorite programs Tivo recorded for us.

    It is an offense to the ideals we as Americans profess to stand for that these brave men and women should ever be made to feel anything besides our deep and abiding respect, along with boundless gratitude for the sacrifices they make.

    I despise the current Operation Iraqi Oil Liberation as much as the next anti-gun control hardcore liberal. I have nothing but respect, gratitude and awe-inspiring admiration for all our service people. How can it not disgust us as a nation that such patriots are treated so unjustly?

    Oh, Miguel was definitely a fool. Feeding yourself to zombies? Yea, ok.

    Had he run to Canada or posed for a picture on a North Vietnamese anti-aircraft gun, I don't think he would have been elected. Altering some paperwork after he'd been trained wouldn't have been so hard.

    Anti-gun control hardcore liberal? I see what you're saying, but society's attitude has to change as a whole first. It is a shame, it'll take some time.

    Miguel was an idiot, he should have died helping John save Sarah and McDermott.
