I worked as a Paramedic in Leavenworth for a few years and we occasionally had to make runs up to the disciplinary barracks on post. It's definitely NOT a fun place to be. I think that's exactly where Watada needs to spend some time. He'll be begging them to send him to Iraq. Yeah it sure would PJ.

Good capsulation of the real history of all that, Patriot. He made a decision to go against his contract and should pay the consequences, just like anyone else who does so. That's why they are called "contracts". Just seeing who his "friends" are is enough to show where his values lie.

I feel just like you do about so many people saying that this war is illegal and that Bush lied. I have heard that until I'm so sick of it. Some people just want to blame our president for everything because they literally hate him besides there being politics involved. Wetarded needs to be jailed for a loooong time, for subversion as you were saying and just being a coward after he signed up for the military and then not serving!! Thanks Patriot for that post.

In the civilian world, I can either do as my boss tells me, or I can quit that job and go elsewhere, or even be fired if I refuse to do what I'm told. The military isn't the only institution in America where that is common. I think the yellow-bellied coward is getting off WAY too lightly! I say, send his butt to Fort Leavenworth Disciplinary Barracks, do NOT pass go and keep his butt there for about 30 years. Where if his acts of subversion would be worth it then?

I did not know all the previous Kerry and Kennedy comments. Over here, not every time those guys say anything is reported ;) But yes, politics as usual of course! We have our own political shenanigans here with our mission in Afghanistan. Politicians who originally supported it, now say "We support our troops. Bring them home NOW!".. Sadly, the electorate has a very short memory. And of course the msm does a terrible job of telling WHY we are there - and of course totally ignoring the progress made. To a one, every family of every Canadian fallen in Afghanistan, is on the record as saying that their children gave all for a cause they passionately believed in... As for Wetard? Doesn't every soldier wish - sometimes - that they could pick and choose WHAT missions they would volunteer for? Just as in civvie life, you sign on the dotted line, and then you do as you are told. You don't like the choices - don't sign on. Pretty basic to me. Thanks Patriot....thank you.... Thanks for this concise history! I did not know all the previous Kerry and Kennedy comments.
