Sorry.
Well, not really. Bush ‘envious’ of troops’ ‘romantic’ work in Afghanistan Posted March 14th, 2008 at 11:08 am http://tinyurl.com/2vlgw9 From the Carpetblogger: I really wish the president wouldn’t say things like this. In a videoconference, Bush heard from U.S. military and civilian personnel [in Afghanistan] about the challenges ranging from fighting local government and police corruption to persuading farmers to abandon a lucrative poppy drug trade for other crops. […] “I must say, I’m a little envious,” Bush said. “If I were slightly younger and not employed here, I think it would be a fantastic experience to be on the front lines of helping this young democracy succeed.” “It must be exciting for you … in some ways romantic, in some ways, you know, confronting danger. You’re really making history, and thanks,” Bush said. Bush periodically talks about how much he wishes he could put on a military uniform and fight in one (or both) of the wars he began. The last time was in September, when the president told a group of conservative milbloggers that he envies U.S. troops in Iraq, and said he’d like to be serving alongside them. He can’t, he said, because, “One, I’m too old to be out there, and two, they would notice me.” It’s likely that Bush thinks these kinds of remarks are good for troop morale. If the commander in chief wishes he could fight on the front lines personally, they must be part of a worthwhile mission. But seeing these remarks, more than once, simply reminds me that when Bush had a chance to serve, he chose not to do his duty. James Joyner noted: My immediate, cynical reaction was that this it is an easy thing to say, if not insulting to those enduring great hardship and danger. Certainly, it’s an impolitic thing to say, since it will immediately raise questions about his actions when he was young and free to go off to war. Some of the soldiers and Marines — and probably all of the civilians — likely had the same reaction. Now, Joyner went on to more or less reject this cynicism, but I’m afraid I have a less forgiving attitude. Bush can talk now about the “romantic” work of serving multiple tours and fighting on the front lines of years-long wars. If only he were younger and unemployed. But he was younger and unemployed, there was a war underway that he said he believed in, and he chose to pull strings, take advantage of family connections, and then neglect to even complete his obligations to the National Guard. Far more offensively, he’s badly mismanaged two wars as president, and over-stretched our fighting forces to the breaking point. Maybe this is a subject Bush could just avoid? Please? |

Harry, you had a chance to serve and chose not to. Harry, you were young and unemployed, at least part of that time that there was a war going on, and you chose to pull strings and or take advantage of family connections to avoid serving your country. Harry, how can you sit in front of your computer and punch out such garbage. Actually, FLEEG, I did serve, but not in any way you could comprehend, and I was never unemployed. Even when I was in college, I had part-time jobs during semesters, and full-time jobs in the summer. You served yourself. You ran away and hid when your country called. If only you knew your ass from a hole in the ground, eh? If you have children, I feel sorrow for the DNA they inherited from you. It'll be a handicap their entire lives. Most of us know the relationship between our asses and holes in the ground. Since words are extremely important, do you have any thoughts on the original subject of this thread, i.e.: what Bush said to the troops and his exact choice (?) of words? I asked you about Geraldine's choice of words first. She stated a simple fact and got cremated for it. -- John H |

Lot's of folks have "play" personalities they use in different areas of usenet, some more affable than others;) I tell my kids all the time. No sock puppet, not one, that you meet on line will truly represent the real person behind the keyboard, they are all sock puppets, every last one of them. If you meet off line, they "will" be different, every single one of them, that's why I have the Vegas Rule, so those folks can be who they want to be on line. It's a little different for me because I do have an online business that really gives the reader a good insight into who "is" behind the keyboard. The way I do business makes this necessary for folks to trust enough to send large checks to a small family business which they have never visited, or in most cases until the time of the transaction, never even heard of. That is a little difficult to explain to my kids, but we get by. JustWait..., was a screen name I came here with, hoping that those who knew me well, would recognize me, and those who did not, I could be a little more free with. Of course my net experience was ruined by a local net nanny who got a little ****ed at something I said, so cleverly "outed" me, so be it, but it still was not right. Anyway, be who you want to be on line, none of you are the same off line, as much as you might swear you are, so think of "your nemisis" as just another annoying sock puppet, play with it, but don't try to smash it, you can't, you can't even reach it so you will only end up more negative and frustrated, trust me... That's my rant for the day.. And for those of you following, I think I am moving toward more of a functional state healthwise for this season, although I probably scarred another chunk of lung... so be it.. Thank you for all of your thoughts, prayers, and concerns, on and off line.. |
