Idiotic People
| I logged on and saw my blog had a quiet a few hits in the last few days and didn't quiet understand. I did a search and found this, scroll down until you see the link "Click here for one very good reason to stop the war in Iraq Right Now!" It links to this. WTF!!!! I was outraged that some Ass Munch would link to my post about Life and Death Fears Before a Deployment and state this is why we should stop the War in Iraq! Just because I have fears does not mean we should pull out. I know what the reality of this war could bring. If you read the damn post you would understand he was very lucky the last time. I also know the type of Marine Sniper is. He is a damn good Marine that everyone should be proud of. He is the first one out of the Humvee and the last one on. He is the first in the door and the last one out. He is the last one to bed and the first one up and some nights he doesn't even sleep. Does he have to do this? No!!! But, that is the type of Marine/Man he is. One of the conversations we had is if it means he lays down his life so some young Marine can come home to his new wife and baby, then that is what will be done. He will bring them all home safe and sound. Even if it means he doesn't come home the same way with them. He is proud and earned the title "Marine" through and through. I trust him with my life and know anyone in his Company can count him to bring them out on the otherside safe and sound. So when some ass munch jumps on my fears, I get pissed. I will not play politics with anyone!!! He believes in what we are doing (and so do I) and that is all that counts. Got any complaints? If not, Shut The Fuck Up. (sorry mom) dyzgoneby |

post a commentWhile your Mom might be a little distressed by your choice of words, I'll bet $0.14 American that she agrees 100% with the sentiment.
As do I - he should shut his pie-hole!
Pass on to your Marine that this former Squid (USN 1969-1973) appreciates and supports him and his mission.
With deference to your mom, I'll try to keep the language appropriate. ;)
Be Proud. Of your Marine. Of your love for him. Of your good judgement in accepting his affection.
Be Proud of what he is doing for the rest of us. I'm proud of him and I've never met him. I have met men like him and this almost 40 year old fat guy is humbled just to shake these kid's hands. Not only did they choose to serve their country but, by this time, the vast majority of them did so knowing they were going to war. That takes some...um...ahem...pride. ;)
God Bless and many Prayers for you.
Some people have no sense of a higher purpose in life. They have no idea what it's like to be a part of something bigger and more important than themselves and their own little sphere of "me and now" issues. For them the venal motivations are everything. For them the fear and the danger are the trump cards, they are the end of the story rather than the beginning. For the courageous the fear and the danger are the foundation, the beginning. Courage is not absence of fear it is overcoming fear. You cannot be courageous if you do not have fear, it is that internal mental and emotional battle (and winning it) which defines courage. Both you and your fiance have shown you have the courage to overcome fears and dangers that would make "mr. ass munch" shit his pants if he had to face them. Which is why he doesn't even entertain the notion. He lives in a world where he feels so safe that he doesn't even have to think about it.
Just remember that this little baby is being protected by grownups, like you and your marine, who aren't afraid of the dangers of the real world and are willing to step up to the challenges of making it a better place.
Unbelievable. But this is what anti-war people do - if they can't find someone who is against the war, they find someone who is for it and see what they want to see. My friend Scott, just returned from Iraq, was recently a victim of some rocket scientist at Democratic Underground who linked to one of Scott's posts as "proof" that the Iraqis are mad at us. In fact, the section the DUer quoted explicitly said that the Iraqis in question were glad the U.S. was there.
Sigh.
I understood what you meant in the first post, and I certainly understand what you mean in this one.
Please feel free to rant at me anytime you feel the urge.
Robin's comment hit the nail on the head.
The AM will never have a clue - thanks in part to those like your Marine.
You have a long road ahead of you, stay close to your friends and family and keep blogging. Folks here helped get me through, they'll help you as well.
Thank you for everyone's kind and encouraging words. I read all this to Sniper and he will be sending me something as a rebutal to the Ass Munch pretty soon.
We are strong and will make it through this together.
People like this Ass Munch just make me so infuriated over using other people's emotions and side with out a care in the world.
But hey, that is what are men are fighting for is so that this Ass Munch can have his freedom to spew his venomn.
Some people live their lives ruled by fear. Others know its there and face it. “Wicked” has no honor, and does not know the truth. Nothing is ever worth sacrificing for, nor worth putting on the line. Blind, deaf and dumb to reality he goes groping through life not facing it with any sense of courage. You know more about life than that fool ever will.
I thank you and your Marine for your courage.
My thoughts are with you.
Sweet Lady, You and your Marine are the Real Deal. In his place I would say: "Don't cry Baby", but be upset if you didn't feel human enough to cry. The test tube disaster that is USING you to rip AMERICA reminds me of an old analagy, (if that's the right word): "We're engaging in a battle of wits with an unarmed person." the slime probably isn't fit to fight, wouldn't fight, and is every bit as heroic as a French Army Soldier. Watch your e-mail with a very special offer from one American to another, (the best I can do).

From one military spouse to another, let me just say that Mister Hand is an asshole (I've been reading his blogs for quite some time) who's opinions generally sound like they were written by the Democratic party itself. He doesn't understand why we are there because he has been "seduced by the dark side." My husband is deployed to Iraq as well, although he won't be gone as long as your boyfriend. We, too, believe in fighting this war. Every day I read the paper and learn of GIs that have been killed; it grieves me, and I hate that war exists at all. But our friends and family are safer today because of the sacrifices of our men. Never, ever let anyone tell you differently. And just ignore Mister Hand and his gang of constant cynics. You'll be better off for it in the end.
