re: Being shot at

Mary Anne's post implied that those running this war don't really give a rat's ass about what the men and women on the front lines are going through. My response was that many of the people running this war are well aware of what being in combat is like.

This flap wasn't about the troops, or armor. It was about politics.

And one last bit on the armor flap... - Tom Brosz - 12/18/2004 6:05:05 AM
- Okay, a bit more. - Tom Brosz - 12/20/2004 1:21:51 AM

        You want my opinions, read my posts. You don't like the others, don't read them. (n/t) - Tom Brosz - 12/21/2004 8:14:25 PM
      - wow. Irony is completely lost on you. (n/t) - Davin L. - 12/19/2004 7:08:53 PM
        
        Yeah, you can use all the irony you want and you'll never get Ed's wrinkles out (n/t) - LJ - 12/19/2004 7:25:39 PM

  - Hummers as a business write-off? - Lindy - 12/19/2004 7:46:25 AM
  - So, I show the entire flap was largely baseless, and that's your comeback? (n/t) - Tom Brosz - 12/18/2004 5:23:41 PM
    - You showed nothing--you merely found an apologist to get the spin that reinforced this admin..... (n/t) - Publius - 12/18/2004 6:44:19 PM
      - Yeah, what the hell would the Defense Department know about it? (n/t) - Tom Brosz - 12/18/2004 6:54:36 PM
        
        Enough to know their jobs are on the line if they come up with the wrong answer. - Mary Anne - 12/19/2004 4:32:05 PM

        And war is always about the failure of the political process.......... (n/t) - Publius - 12/21/2004 1:46:39 PM
        
        I'd like to think you're too intelligent for crappy cliches like that. - Tom Brosz - 12/21/2004 7:13:52 PM
        
        Definitely intellegent enough to recognize....... - Publius - 12/22/2004 12:16:57 AM
        
        When someone jumps out from behind a tree... the system has failed already (n/t) - LJ - 12/21/2004 7:40:54 PM
        
        Yeah. The "system" is responsible for criminal behavior. I wonder where you picked that idea up. (n/t) - Tom Brosz - 12/21/2004 8:15:15 PM
        
        OK, give me a situation where someone commits a crime and there is no failure of "the system" at all involved - LJ - 12/21/2004 9:48:41 PM
        
        I'm sorry, we seem to be operating on completely different wavelengths. - Tom Brosz - 12/21/2004 11:39:14 PM
