You’re a disgrace to every military veteran out there. shame on you.
I know it irks you that as an accomplished Marine, I’m now a proud progressive, but thats life.
You’ll never take away my experience and my title of US Marine. And I’ve done nothing to sully my time in the Corps. In fact I’m in excellent standing at both my VFW and Marine Corps League. I also volunteer at the VA hospital. Now let’s hear what you so called patriots do for veterans.
PZ, when and where was that picture taken? Also just curious which one are you?
Thanks

I could have sworn that a few months back he said he photographed the first crucible in 1996. I believe he said it was in Quantico, but the article says OCS didnt start it until 98 or 97.

Paul can you clarify?

2) Why am I a progressive? Years of experience. But actually, now that you ask
-I support socialized health care:
-I’m pro-Black Lives Matter and do my best to support the racially oppressed.
-I support feminism. When we oppress women, we are missing out on a wide range of skills and talents
-I believe in taking steps to alter climate change. There is a clear human cost here that is concerning, and I trust in the overwhelming number of scientists who tell me climate change is happening.
-I am pro-choice. Not pro abortion, pro choice, meaning the choice should be available to a woman AND HER DOCTOR. No one else.
-I believe in a living wage. It absolutely blows my mind how people can a work their ass off for forty hours a week at a minimum wage job and still be incredibly below the poverty line.
-But this one is the one that really cements my liberalism.
I’m a liberal because I believe that government has an obligation to the disadvantaged. Democratic presidents gave to America the minimum wage, social security, Medicare, Medicaid, and the Affordable Care Act. Yes its clear how you feel about those things, except many of you actually use them, imagine the irony...
This is a legacy that must be nourished and protected; indeed, it is a legacy that must be , yes...conserved.
Capitalism, competition, and free trade are vital to a prosperous nation, but they will always result in winners and losers. Thats the very nature of capitalism and free trade. It is the government’s job to insure that the losers don’t fall too far. Thats what I believe and I'll go to my grave holding onto that ideology.
Flame away friends.
No you won't. But if you do you will be a failure to everybody and everything you hold so dear right now. Or you will grow up and learn the truth
What a POS.
