New Army Commercial Sends Pitiful Message to the World

When I saw this commercial, I honestly thought perhaps the Army is now making ads specifically targeting homosexuals. (We all know that it's just a matter of time.) I'm definitely ---not--- saying that graphic artists are all homosexuals. However...

I consider hg’s comments to be a recommendation to check out another Conservative site. The more the better! So you got a hit from me.

I thought the soldier at the 20 second mark was a woman, because of the fluffy eyelashes. I could have been wrong.
There will be overt pandering soon enough. Then, after maybe seven to ten years doing it that way, and realizing this is keeping many non-gays (or non-out gays) from enlisting, there may be a reversal, equally as expensive, equally as heavy-handed.

“You’ve just run up against the ol’ hg. Another sip of whatever cools you off and you’ll be just fine.”

I remember the loser. It is just sad. He is obsessed with this fight against “blog pimping”. It’s absurd. I presume he wears tights and a care as he prances around his Mom’s basement where he has resided since graduation. I have no ads at my blog, although I could if I wanted to put some adsense or something like that on there.

It is just sad that this guy wastes so much of his life antagonizing conservatives like a petulant leftist does. He should be spending his time at HuffPost since all he does with his pathetic excuse for a life is attack conservatives who take the time to share original thoughts and fight the actual enemy. Whatever donation he makes that keeps him from being rightfully blocked is money well invested by the enemy who is the master of sowing dissension and dissuading actually those who seek to fight the enemy.

That is all I have to say about this pitiful coward.

Yep, that's what he wants.

Writes a little stuff tailored to your preferences,
puts ads on his blog site, collects the "hit" money,
smokes crack and assists in human trafficking. Yep.

Just a'bloggin'.

My third day in the Army another guy and I were told we were going to pull CQ that night.

We asked the DI “What’s CQ?” He said “Captains Queers”.

Blog pimping is itself pathetic.
Why drive traffic FROM here to someplace else?

I guess I DO need to post the “Guidelines For Bloggers” thread after all.

I didn’t think the commercial was that bad. one question did come to mind though. why no women or minorities. all other armed services commercial are majority, minority. (to use an Orwellian phrase).

Neither did I.

If there had been a minority woman, the "ultimate" minority, she would have PROBABLY said that she wanted to design bombs or be a general.

Penultimate I-AM-WOMAN minority, stuporwoman: 1/2 black and 1/2 American Indian (thereby Asian), FOUR-star General, divorced from a REAL jerk (of course, straight white male on welfare, drugs, alcoholic, druggie, adulterer and wife beater) mother of 10 children, homemaker, mechanic, bona fide genius and reads the Bible two hours every day.

.

Harharhar! That was fun.

That’s ridiculous! It’s a small Conservative blog site. Nothing offensive. I have found many interesting sites, like The Conservative Treehouse, by clicking on links here at FR.
“Writes a little stuff tailored to your preferences,”
And that should bother me? It’s Conservative.
“puts ads on his blog site, collects the “hit” money”
Didn’t see any ads there.
“smokes crack and assists in human trafficking. Yep.”
That is quite an offensive remark on your part!

There are a lot of military jobs that translate well to the civilian world and it’s nice that the military gives people additional training in something they can succeed in as a civilian. There’s nothing worse than doing great things for your country, such as blowing things up, killing the enemy or diving into the sea to recover things and then getting out of the service and finding that your skills aren’t readily transferable. So you end up depressed and working some menial job and missing your buddies on active duty.

Watching that, it looked like the drill sergeant was planning some one on one with the recruit that evening.

Why wouldn’t you post the entire text of your post here. Just cut and paste. People do the vanity stuff all of the time. It’s not like your daily blog is updated monthly...let alone daily.

I am not knocking your desire to express your feelings. I appreciate that. But you are either committed or not. If you are only going to do it once a month or so...why not just post the vanity?

Saves ya a lot of grief.

I wonder why the army wouldn’t sub contract a graphics arts job. It’s cost a helluva lot less, and it would cut down on the PowerPoint BS-dazzle dazzle that has become standard these days.

As Gay people are about 2% of the population—its a limited group to try to get to join up. You might be better off trying to get Native Americans to join. Best group to get to sign up—Illegal Aliens (After sevice with an Honorable Discharge—Citizenship!).

1. The graphic artist recruit is wearing eye makeup. Subtle... but it’s there.

2. The U.S. Army should not be recruiting graphic artists — homosexual, heterosexual or otherwise. The U.S. Army should not be depicted as a mere alternative to “expensive art school.”

3. Yes, this is a pitiful message. And there’s no question it targets men who (even if heterosexual) probably shouldn’t be in the U.S. Army.

No need, Native Americans have been over represented in the military in modern times.
