Well, he got mine...

Andy Rooney is also noted for his dislike for General George S. Patton. Of course, Andy Rooney is an idiot, he's just one of the fortunate few idiots who gets paid to be one. By the way, I saw that last week, I just summarily dismissed it as spew from a well known moron.

Senility has nothing at all to do with it. Rooney has had a few moments of humor, but they were interspersed in a mass of Bravo Sierra and stupidity.

I read the article, and I'm not sure it really merited that strong of a reaction.  From what I saw, he just said they're just people doing a tough job and can be as good or as bad as anyone else.

There are certainly some heros in there, but do you honestly believe that everyone who enlists in the military does so with thoughts of defending their country in mind?  Hell, I almost enlisted in the army when I was a Sr in high school simply because I didn't have any plans for myself after I graduated, and my father & my uncles had been in the military.

Or perhaps I'm just an insensitive salamander.

A hero is someone who puts his or her own life in extreme danger to save someone else.  Just serving in Iraq does not make a person a hero.  

Running out in the open to pull wounded troops to safety while an enemy machine gun shoots at you- Heroic

Engaging 20 enemy fighters so your buddies can retreat- Heroic

Jumping on a grenade- Heroic

Doing your job- Doing your job

And leaving your unit after minor injuries to get out of the action does not make you a hero.

To chime in MY 2.5 cents worth.....

A hero can be defined by many different things however if YOU consider someone to be a hero then they are an inspiration to YOU.  Your hero may not be someone elses....



Some of my hero's are.....the cops and firemen that put their lives on the line every damn day so that my family is safe. (makes me feel a whole lot better when I am deployed to know that there are guys that do the things they do every day).  Are they all hero's?  Im not sure any of you can answer that for me.  But the "symbol" of police/firemen(women) give me a sense of pride to know that there are guys/gals out there doing what they do.

Some other hero's....ever watch the movie "A Perfect Storm"....there are some hero's there lemme tell ya....

More?  Coastguardsmen/women.......giant mountains of courage there.....

How about someone who stands up for what they believe in....whether it is popular or not....that individual could be considered a hero as well.

How about my wife.....yeah she's my hero ....when I deploy (oh by the way I am in the military...have been for quite some time) and get my arse shot at, cant contact home for weeks at a time somtimes, etc etc etc....she is there wondering if I will come home yet she still makes the house function, do her job, take care of the dogs, AND send me care packages to where I may be deployed to.  Yeah she's my hero!  Any one who tells me otherwise.....LOL......(PS she is still the WIFE ACK...LOL:lol )


SOOOOO for anyone to say that someone is a hero or not...actually really doesnt have the right to do so it all depends upon your frame of reference.  Everyone is entitled to his or her opinion and if your definition of a hero does not fit someone elses then so be it.


Regards all!!!!

andy roony is John Kerry's cousing....Walking Anus (kerry being a walking noodle)

first of Rooney can go F himself.


does he even know what its like to get 48 notice to deploy knowing that your wife is 8 months pregnant.

does he even know what its like to start college classes on off duty time to help better yourself to only have to drop them

does he even know what its like to be a reservist and have to put your carreer and family aside to do you duty.

does he even know that not all heros fire weapons and save lives.



all that considered Grunts are not effective grunts without LG....that means logistics...IE BEANS (chow)  BAND AIDS (Medical attention) BAD GUYS (intel...no laughs please) BULLETS (supply)

Grunts are just a big wheel with a bunch of different cogs that keep it spinning.

he is an idiot who doesnt even deserve this post from me.

Perhaps not, but I think risking your life to save a fellow soldier does.

Thrawn,

In my book.....risking one's life to save another's is about one of greatest sacrafices a person can make.

Whether someone likes Senator Kerry or not if he did risk his life to save his fellow soldiers...well thats something that most folks cant say that they have done or would do.

Regards:)

It is a volunteer army. Any hardships like these you place on yourself.
