I disagree.

I will always take pride in the servicemen of our country. They are the best and deserve to be praised, anything less is a disservice to them. They keep your freedom safe. Even if you don't agree with whatever war they are fighting or think that, that conflict is not keeping you safe remember this; their service gives you your freedom of choice. If Americans didn't choose to join up then you and others would be forced into service.

Unfortunately, the world isn't one big happy family yet so we're stuck with them until then; however, we have them like we have prisons. It's a relief that they are able to protect us, but we should try to avoid using them unless inaction would be even costlier.

Ok spock.

Now that's something that I can be proud of.

Nevermind. It's not worth the waste of time.

I take pride in our military. What is an embarrassment more often than not is our youth.

with each post you further demonstrate your ignorance. What's sad is that I know there are people that think you are actually as bright and insightful as you pretend to be. I hope that you are never in a position where they have to rely on you and your over-inflated ego for anything of real substance.

Sorry :D He shares my last name, and has probably had it misspelled quite often, so I feel his pain. :)
