Point of order and clarrification please. Since the red ink and/or the *** wasn't used, can I assume that the words "jerk","jerk-off", and "prick" are alright to use when describing people like Danr and Moen? Just trying to figure this out, as I fully intend to stay within bounds and be a good boy! Thanks in advance for your reply! OldDan
Any term that has a clear sexual connotation will not be allowed I have asked politely that personal attacks be kept to a minimum and I intend to enforce that rule. call someone an Idiot, fool, quack etc by all means but if you cant get your meaning across without becoming abusive then you have a problem.
Absolutely no problem, I assure you. I was just trying to find at what level of 'abuse' you were going to allow. Thinking that a streight forward question was the best way of finding out the answer. Again, thank you for the answer to my question.
Showing your true colors again I see. I can't remember the last time an elected official or a teacher has spilled his/her blood for your FREEDOMS. I may be wrong, but I live in constant fear of making my first mistake. MOEN you are a true Anti-American and Ant-Military ass. USMC 1989-1993
Because of a hearing problem, I am physically ineligible for the military. They might give me a waiver to be a chaplain, and I am pursuing that at the moment, but that's it. And I can name several politicians who bled for Moen's freedom. John McCain's (R-AZ) service is well documented. Wayne Gilchrest (R-MD) is a Marine who served in Vietnam and was wounded. John Murtha (D-PA) is also a Marine who bled in Vietnam. Even John Kerry (D-MA) served and bled - even if you think Kerry's three Purple Hearts are suspect (as I do), one of them probably isn't, as I understand the circumstances. Now whether or not Moen appreciates their sacrifice in the same manner you do is open to debate, but they did serve.
Don't forget that John F. Kennedy,who later became President of America,had a Navy background.His predecessor,Dwight Eisenhower was one of the most famous U.S. generals in World War II. Aidan.
Maybe it's just been a while since you've said something or you just didn't read the entire thread before posting, but I was referring to the oath of office to uphold the constitution. I understand that you can at one point in your life serve in the military and at another point serve as an elected official, well, George Bush aside. The point was that soldiers aren't the only people who take an oath to the constitution and that many of them don't seem to take it all that seriously. George Bush for example is supposed to uphold the constitution per his oath of office and we all know how that worked out. Besides, when was the last war that we were involved in where our freedom hung in the balance? The last couple of major conflicts have had somewhat different agendas. Our freedom really wasn't at issue.
