What are YOU doing on Free Republic?? That is NO way to refer to freepers. Did you lose your way from the Mega McCain blog, or from the Mega Whitman website or from Mittens Romney & Glennie Beck?
You obviously despise conservatives, and you obviously consider yourself a Superior Specimen of Humanity.
We don't.

Remember these names. They are the names of soldiers of the 1st Squadron, 33d Cavalry, 101st Airborne Division. They are the names of soldiers of that squadron who have been killed in action since the arrival of that unit in Afghanistan. LTC Lakin disobeyed orders assigning him as the surgeon of this squadron. He refused to deploy, and was therefore not in a position to render life saving medical treatment to these soldiers. We don’t know if LTC Lakin might have made a difference, but what would you like to say to their families?
What Lakin is doing is a political stunt that is being shown to be without any legal foundation. He’s having his day in court, but meanwhile, these four men have been laid in their graves. I have no sympathy for Lakin or for those so lamely defending him. You are all making fools of yourselves.
