About John Kerry's latest quote after sending her the picture of the troops in "Irak".  



Ya know....he really wasn't stating anything more than what already is in the demographic stats for the military??? I guess as long as you just look at the stats with your mouth closed OR say things behind closed doors...I'm not sure???

Love the picture though....too funny.

Mom


I'm at a loss for words.  I just thanked her for calling me stupid too.

She's your mom so I'll withold the usual comments.

But, you might just ask her to provide the "stats".
If she can't, then you're perfectly warranted if you tell her to STFU.

The military is smarter than the general public.

Proven fact.

With the education requirements for the Officer corps, and the amount of technical training enlisted non-combat folks go through to maintain the war fighting capability, all I can say is...

That's worse than the time the neighbor across the street told me I had probably been brainwashed, and then immediately and in all seriousness ASKED me if I remembered being brainwashed.


I filed it in the WTF files, and forbade my household from ever referring to that man by his given name.  He is now and forever shall be "Jackass."

98% of the military has at least a HS diploma while the general population is about 70%. So there Mom.

Oh so she's one of the enlightened ones.

This is the most educated military yet. The only one that comes close is what was made during WW2, where the general population was drafted. Quite a large number of educated, skilled people were taken in.

Here are some stats for you to show dear old Mom, courtesy of Michelle Malkin.



America has the best-trained, most professional, most well-educated military in the world. But the moonbats want only to hear the myths of the soldier-as-victim or the soldier-as-brutalizer or soldier-as-indentured servant. Never mind that for every two volunteer recruits coming from the poorest neighborhoods, there are three recruits coming from the richest neighborhoods, as The Heritage Foundation recently reported. Never mind that 99.9 percent of the enlisted force have at least a high school education. Never mind that 49.2 percent of officers have advanced or professional degrees; 39.4 percent have master's degrees; 8.5 percent have professional degrees; and 1.3 percent have doctorate degrees.

I won't.  Tell her the only reason she can flap that fucking Dorito chute of hers is because men had died for and killed for her to have that right.  She hides among other pseudoelitists who, like her, were afraid to go out and have to perform in the real world, and that her regressed feelings of inadequacy (and her peers) spew forth in liberal rhetoric to a captive and bound audience.  Screw her.

This is just how out of touch the libtards really are.  My buddy's reserve grunt unit has more enlisted people with advanced degrees than zeros with advanced degrees.  

This whole flop is a gift from on high.  It reminds us out in the flyover how much the leftist elite really hates us.

It's embarrrasing that this conversation even exists....all those really smart intellectuals that like to hang around in coffee shops and hypothesize about how the world could be ought to be on their knees thanking a soldier for what they do.

It's because of those soldiers that these self righteous assholes get to sit back here stateside on their ass and form opinions. It will never cease to amaze me how these thankless pieces of shit will shroud themselves in the blanket of protection our military provides them and then insult the military with every opinion they form of free will.

What I would give to put a few of these holier-than-thou liberals in a war zone, give'm a rifle, and tell them to go do the heavy lifting themselves.

This whole thing pisses me off.
Fuck John Kerry....and fuck anyone that supports him.

You know, I can't honestly remember the last time I was offended.  I mean, what do I have to be offended about?  I'm a white, male, American.  but Kerry's comments pissed me off.  


My whole family is Dem...  They just don't understand how I could be offended by Kerry's remark.

Point out to her that 98% of the people in today's Volunteer military have at LEAST a HS diploma, nevermind the ones that have either some college, or degrees...THEN pijt out that in the population in General, only 75% of people have at MINIMUM a High-School Diploma.  In essence, comparatively the Military in the US is better educated than the general populace.  People forget that it's not the 60s/70s anymore, the Military has STANDARDS now, and they have no qualms about rejecting people for enlistment.. the days of "Do a hitch or go to Jail" by a Judge are LONG over.

I would be interested in a comparison NOT to the geenral public - but to the avergae college freshman.

My gut tells me that the average 18 year old soldier has better numbers than your average college freshman.

By sophomore year - the college students no doubt pull ahead when the 50% or more with all money and no brains drop out.  Still - if you stick with recruits for college vs. recrutis for military - I bet the military wins.

At least when we do think we think with the right head....

Hehe, but more seriously... Does Kerry really think that we're going to put guns and America's wellbeing in the hands of morons??? Ummm...NO! I'd rather have a high school drop out who's been out in the real world and knows what its all about than some stuck up elitist who needs to get their head out of their ass and their life out of academia
