What the hell is with the hawkish neo-cons posting their job experience in a thread called "Hey Vets", when the patently aren't vets at all?

Cripes, transference much?  Hint, you know you can't possibly be a vet if you were never even in the ****ing military.

You know better than that.

I have to meet with a special doctor at the VA each week.
It's a kind of shock therapy.

He'll say Grafenwoehr, Hoenfels or Grenze and watches my reaction.

We've made progress over the years. I used to run screaming into the parking lot screaming for a train to Nuremburg.

Now I just break out in a rash.

Just typing this, my hands are starting to shake.




Actually, (don't tell my doctor) I had a good time there.

Glad to hear from someone else that's familiar with the Disneyland of Bavaria...lol.
