ROFLCOPTER TIME!!!!
I'm sending this to Rush, Sean and Neal. THis shit is too rich to hog it for myself. |
|
it's happened for less. Conduct unbecoming of a member of the armed forces, insubordination, publicly mocking an elected official while in uniform representing the US military. i hate to say it but i bet within 30 days this causes they poor folks some serious grief. |

Probably something along the lines of "go ahead, make my day" going through their minds at that thought. |
|
|
as usual to your posts. Your ignorance garners no sympathy here. |
||
|
Yeah, nice try there, pal. Kerry meant what he said and said what he meant. Nice fuckin' try. John |
|
|
Quick, someone with a throwaway DU troll account, post it over there and tell us about the impending meltdown. |
|
Doesn't it suck that the leader of your party leaves it to party faithful to have to defend his actions rather than he man-up and do the right thing? Other Democratic Sens and Reps are demanding an apology, how about you? |
|
|
Keep the bullshit coming there, TC! We are all too stupid to understand what Kerry really meant, so now you're giving us a lesson in how to understand the high and mighty speak of ivy league grabastic piece of amphibian shit Kerry. Yeah, fuckin' right. John |

YESSS !!! www.drudgereport.com/ |
|

You just want to believe what you want to believe. |
|
|
Apparently, the troops in Iraq took what Kerry said personnaly. That photo is a classic.
Even if Kerry wasn't a Democrat he would still be an ignorant jack-off. |
|
Way to dance around the topic. How does any of what you stated make those comments mean any different from, "our troops are stupid". You can spin it/try to move the topic to something else any way you would like, but the rest of the world got that message, from what Kerry said. Anything else, means you are just sticking your head in the sand and pretending it didn't happen. |
||
|
Go back to DU, TC. This wasn't something that was up for interpretation. It was a plain and clearly understandable statement. DRUDGE HAS THE PIC UP!!! John |
||
|
tc556guy's a smart fella, but he comes on here parroting the dem's talking points a bit too often for me to take him very seriously. |
||
|
What do suppose the Army will do, cut off their hair and send them to Iraq ? //Just kidding my first thought was, " I hope they are covering their name tapes." Pretty ballsy/risky move on their part. |
|||
|
Yeah, Bush was wrong when he said that the war in Iraq would not be easy and would take a lot of time, and require the American people's patience. The problem with people like you is that you buy into the media's propoganda that all we are accomplishing in Iraq is to kill American soldiers. They were orgasming when we reached 100 dead soldiers last month, but never mentioned what has actually been happening in Iraq, or how much we are accomplishing, or how wonderful things are there compared to several years ago. |
|
|
Are you saying we shouldn't trust our cognitive abilities to interpret what we heard him say? Did you see the video of him saying it? If so, there is no way to interpret it as being directed at Bush. You know, the Bush in Washington, DC, who is more highly educated than John Effing Kerry. The Bush who isn't in Iraq. |
||
|
He actually said that LATER when he realized it wasn't going to be a cakewalk. A little too late.
I've spoken to enough guys who were there to know that stuff doesn't get reported. I also recognize that Bush essentially thought he'd have a cakewalk not much harder than his dad had in GW1, and it wasn't meant to be. |
||
|
I see some senior NCOs and officers who don't seem to care that posing in this picture might end any future chances for promotion. That should tell us how much that statement pissed off the military. |

The ASV's are awesome. The 89th MP brigade on Ft Hood got them right after 9/11. Think of them as a mini-Stryker. They are QUIET. Make about as much noise as my pickup.
For a month after they got them the unit just drove them around Ft Hood 8 hours a day. Sort of a "this is a FRIENDLY vehicle, please do not shoot" sort of deal. The gun system is fantastic and accurate. As for the guys getting into trouble, I see one LT and a Major as well as senior NCO's in there. I doubt they'll get much. Their Commander probably approved. What are they going to do to them? Send them to Iraq? |
|
It would take quite a bit of effort to construe his statements into meaning President Bush. Way more effort than it would take to simply understand what he really said: Troops=dumb |
|
|
Has Bush EVER insinuated that the war would be easy and finished in a few years? Can you give me one quote? He said it wouldn't be easy from the beginning. I'd like to see a timeline with relevant quotes to prove me wrong. |
||
|
I'm sure somebody's ass is gonna wind-up in the wringer over that stunt. |
|
|
don't feed the troll, and yes, in this case, TC, you are a troll. The topic is not about Bush, (exactly what TC wants it to be)but about John Efffin skerry, and what a shit stain he is on our country. Proven by what he said about people defending this country. |

GOD BLESS THEM ALL. I HOPE THEY ALL COME HOME SAFE IN ONE PIECE. Whenever I see the pictures of our troops (I don't care what branch they are from), I can't help but be filled with pride and becoming teary eyed. Too bad I am such a fuck up and physically (medically) unfit to sign up and join them over there.
GOD BLESS YOU ALL, OUR BELOVED TROOPS. Oh, and John Kerry: a big FUCK YOU, you scum bucket douchebag! I hope you and your ilks will rot in hell for eternity!!!!! |
|
No, sorry..I may not have timelines to show you, but I clearly recall that he didn't start in on that "it'll take awhile" talk until well after all of the "mission accomplished" spin where we were supposed to be in and out, all expenses of the war would be repaid to the US public via oil sales, etc... you DO recall that phase of pitching the war to the American public, right? |
|
|
Good pic of the M-1117 ASV. The company I work for makes the armor for them. Erik |
|
|
One is forced to wonder if some COs are going to have some "conversations" with those folks.... |
|
|
Consider the audience, a bunch of commie-lib college students in Kalifornia. Kerry's comment was most definately aimed at the troops.
|
|
As many as are necessary.
Are you alleging that they are too stupid to figure out what Kerry said? |

A remake of an old Nixon era joke which was to trash Henry Kissenger.
I like it better this way. John Kerry, a Priest and a Gulf War vet are on a small aircraft. Through a freak accident the aircraft is hit with falling debris and the pilot and co-pilot are killed. The aircraft is on auto pilot, but the controls are damaged. There is no way to safely land. There are two parachutes in the aircraft. John Kerry grabs one and tells the Priest and the war vet... “I am the smartest one here. I understand what is wrong with this country. I am the only one educated enough to fix America. By my experience and my Ivy league education, I must be saved to one day be President.” He puts it on, and jumps from the plane. The Priest looks on in disbelief. The Priest says to the war vet... “Son, I trust God to guide my life. I go where I am sent without question. I have faith that there is a plan, and I will do my part to see His plan is followed. God bless America! Son, you take the other parachute. You have served our country with honor, and you are still needed to protect freedom and the future of America!” The war vet speaks. “ Father, let me help you with this parachute. Stay calm, and listen to me carefully on how to use it and how to safely land. I have done this many times.” The Priest steps back and protests to the vet. “But son, I can’t do this! You deserve the change to live!” The vet adds... “Father now calm down, we will both survive. The smartest man in the world grabbed my back pack. We have both parachutes! |

We invaded Baghdad and toppled Saddam's regime. The mission was accomplished. Then on to the next mission. |
||
|
Riiight... So if he said "If you don't do good in school you'll end up posting on ar15.com" would you find that insulting? |
|
|
I also see name tapes and bumper numbers onthe veh's.... If the ARMY wants to pull any shit, it wont be much on this one. Like said above, What are they going to do send them to IRAK? I say good on them, next time I will even buy them the paint. |
|||||
|
Well, as far as tc556guy is concerned, that would be an accurate statement. |
||
|
Its ALL ONE mission. The mission hasn't ended, and it didn't end as quick as he thought it would. Remember when they thought that the Iraqi people would run into the streets with open arms, greet us as liberators and joyfully go about setting up a democratic government and that we'd be out within a year? Yup. THAT happened, didn't it? |
|

Red Bull, 34th Ifanty Division. Thats the Minnesota / Iowa / SD National Guard. I wore that patch proudly for a few years.

You guys better be careful. If Kerry sees this thread and his feelings get all butt-hurt, I see another purple heart in his future.
|
|
any. better. What do I win? |
|
|
....Which is the lie they came up with in Vietnam that I STILL hear on a daily basis. Listen up folks: Liberals do not like the military. They never have. They never will. They have always loathed the institution of the military and have done all sorts of stupid crap to try and undermine it. Remember all those cuts in the 90s? And then the stupid bastards have the audacity to complain that US troops are stretched "too thin" and that there ought to be more boots on the ground in Iraq? |
|
|
More. Much like Kerry supported the war before he opposed it. |
|
|
C'mon guys. There's a logical explanation for all of this. I'm sure that Mr. Kerry was FOR our troops being smart before he was AGAINST it ...
What a dumbass. |
|
Posting that pic on ARF is cool, but I wouldn't want to see it on Drudge. National exposure like that could get someones ass in a sling... Just my opinion. -k |
