Only soldiers know the true dangers of war. Those on the battle field and those as consequences of POLs.

What a loss of great soldiers. Imagine SEALS unarmed in battle.

FUBO!

And our president turned the return of these fine military men into a photo op for his re-election. He is a disgrace to everything this country stands for and to everything our fighting forces have fought, bleed and died for.

The king has no clothes !

That is disgraceful and I think about Fort Hood how the soldiers were not allowed to be armed either. Makes you just want to cry and yell at the same time. Meanwhile our President is fund raising and his party and the media are blaming Romney for making comments and apologizing to the culprits of the attacks.

“There was one thing I did fear however, and that is that my life would be wasted by a politician. “

I came to that conclusion watching Lyndon Johnson and Robert McNamara. Some things don’t change.

The writer feared his life being wasted by a politician ... that is my fear for my two boys who are nearing military age. I’m sure if they joined up or were drafted they would be proud to serve ... but the thought of them being sent to some God-forsaken Armpit-istan country for political reasons makes me want to cry.

Ah but to die, as the administration would like us to believe, for a bad movie..

Such a crock. Obama bragged for s solid week that “he” killed Bin Laden.

The protestors are chanting we are Osama.

The MSM blames a third rate you tube video that was made months ago. Please.

“I am appalled, disgusted, and deeply saddened.”

Lay it at the feet of Barack Hussein and Hillary Rodham. UNARMED - what INCOMPETENCE on the part of those politicians who live in Lalaland, as opposed to Realville!!
Now, they are flapping their gums and the media’s busy with CYA propaganda. WAKE UP, PEOPLE! (I know I’m preaching to the choir, but I have to vent.)

I fully agree with you my good man, having been enlisted myself I know better than to call you sir, we both worked for a living. It is a shame and in my eyes a crime that these men were murdered with the full aid of the administration, who even now sit on their fat asses and watch the world burn around our embassies and our troops. We are long past apologies and there is no need to apologize to the animals who do what these do, to them it is a sign of weakness, they understand only force and disrespect, it is time for the pig blood and pig skins to resurface. They will stop if they know that they will die unclean, allah will not accept them and there will be no virgins to those that are unclean, all we need is a little swine.

I think that we are near the day that the military will have to make known their opinions on existential issues vis-a-vis the Country;

and also issues vis-a-vis needless assignments and unnecessary risks to their own personal safety due to being "sent to some remote piece of ground to die for a political talking point, or worse . . . hamstrung by orders that would not even allow [defending] in the face of an attack."

I am fond of repeating what Abe told me about the Republic as viewed from the "other side."

You initiated a policy to tolerate the Marxist-Alinsky radicals and let them rant; not only has it not ceased but was constantly augmented by decades of infiltration and indoctrination. You now have two Americas. In my opinion, it will not cease until a crisis shall have been reached and passed. "A house divided against itself cannot stand." I believe this government cannot endure, permanently, half statist and half free; I do not expect the house to fall; but I do expect it will cease to be divided. It will become all one thing, or all the other.

In my opinion the military is one day going to have to choose sides. I hope it's our side against the 1960s radicals.. 1960s Marxist-Alinsky campus radical, psycho spoiled brats were celebrated in the MSM as the most intelligent generation ever!. They are now arguably that very establishment that praised them and they hold themselves and their ideological issue in even higher regard.

I could not understand it until I read tonight that Amb. Stevens was a gay man.

Islamists despise homosexuals.

The you tube movie thing did not seem credible. I can understand jihadis plotting to murder a gay US ambassador on 911, the jihadi day of celebration.

I cannot understand why the USA would appoint a gay man ambassador to an Islamist government. Clearly the government does not understand the enemy.

Well said..

However if this country is to survive our soldiers must ignore the ignorant politicians of both parties who are only interested in their reelection.

It is coming down to those who fight and those who don't..
