The modern conservative is engaged in one of man's oldest exercises in moral
philosophy; that is, the search for a superior moral justification for selfishness.

Yup.  Sadly it's true.  There are some misguided Americans who consistently vote against their
own interests.



Amazingly, you know the personal interests of 300 million people.  Call Guiness, that's gotta be some sort of record.

Of course a liberal knows what is right for everyone, just let them take your money and you will see

Do you disagree with my post:

Well yeah, if you consistently vote against your interest, wouldn't your consistent vote BE your interest?  Of course, unless you know their true interest, for which they are not aware of.

I saw TeaBaggers at that rally, and a few corrupt politicians using the few US Military who showed up.

As far as "once a Marine, always a Marine"... for Henry that phrase is only words.  He'd never understand
it's meaning.  


the military is used to being used.....

for oil
for land
for trade
etc etc etc

this doesn't ring any less true


...you are a product of your environment, your environment is a product of your priorities, your priorities are a product of you......

The replacement of morality and conscience with law produces a deadly paradox.

TeaBaggers Hijack Million Vet March... Vets Are Not Happy!

Homepage of "MILLION VET MARCH ON THE MEMORIALS ":

Quoted Text
The political agenda put forth by a local organizer in Washington DC
was not in alignment with our message.
We feel disheartened that some would seek to hijack the narrative for political gain.
The core principle is about all Americans honoring Veterans in a peaceful and apolitical
manner.

http://1mvetmarch.wordpress.com/

The original organizers of the veterans’ march are displeased with the Tea Party’s co-opting
of their protest. On the Million Vet March homepage, the organizers suggest a local organizer
invited Tea Party and birther groups against the wishes of the veterans

Did you see the TeaBagger Flag at the rally?  Did you hear political speech at the rally?  Did you
see Palin & Cruz campaigning at the Vets rally?

Go to the Vets website yourself and read their words:

The Gadsden flag? is that the flag you are talking about, you should read about the history of that flag. So I ask again where is the Tea Party mentioned?

This is from the Vetmarch web page.

I want you to circle the date of Sunday, October 13, 2013.

And then I want you to help “circle the wagons” on that day to help protect and defend our brave veterans who risked their lives for our freedom – and now are being barred from visiting the memorials erected to honor their deeds.

In a mean-spirited fit of selfish anger, Barack Obama has shut down our nation’s war memorials. And he has declared open war on our honored veterans!

The World War II memorial … the Vietnam Veterans Memorial … the Korean War Veterans Memorial – Obama has shut them all down to force his will on the House of Representatives and frankly, to get revenge on the American people who oppose Obamacare and his other naked power grabs.

Let’s put it plainly: Barack Obama is behaving like a vicious tyrant. And if he succeeds in this assault on the democratic system, the Republic we love is at mortal risk. It’s just that simple.

That’s why I am asking you now to take two decisive moves to show Barack Obama, Harry Reid, Nancy Pelosi – and all of their oppressive ilk in Washington – that “We the People” are still in charge. And we won’t rest until we take back our memorials and monuments! - See more at:

Read the text yourself.  They were against a group of POLITICAL hacks hijacking their NON POLITICAL
rally.  
TeaBaggers, Liberals, Anarchists, Republican or Democrat...  Their rally is about Americans honoring
Veterans in a peaceful and apolitical manner.

Instead they had their apolitical rally, hijacked by TeaBagger Thugs.



I know the history of the Gadsden Flag.  Here is a direct quote about the many groups that have used
the Flag as their symbol:
Quoted Text
Beginning in 2009 at Tea Party rallies, the Gadsden Flag has been adopted as a
symbol of the American Tea Party movement.   It was also displayed by members of Congress
at Tea Party movement rallies.


You can deny your fellow TeaBaggers or OathCreapers at this rally,  but that doesn't change the facts.

I don't think you do, if you did you would know the Navy adopted it, go look at the 1st Navy Jack. So is all of the Navy now Tea Party supporters?
