reading your two replies on this thread, which bear an amazing resemblance to someone who picks his nosehairs in his sparetime (and has LOTS of spare time...), I can quickly see why you chose the tagline you have... nothing constructive or instructive in your comments - just more typical petty whinings that - like water flowing against a rock - always follow the path of least resistance.

C'mon, now, fess up... are you another in the line of leftists-claiming-liberal-superiority who deign to grace our humble Freep-abode?

Let me first tell you I will ignore you "nose hair" comment. That sounds disgusting and vulgar.

Secondly, let me spell it out in plain English for you. The speech given by MacArthur although worthy at its face value did not mirror his military career. DUTY! Again, so it sinks in, DUTY!
What about disobeying direct orders not once but several times is related to duty? The man was a maverick. It is important you realize this distinction, because even the lowest grunt knows how to take orders.

I've been called an elitist pig, son of a bitch conservative and now a "leftist-claiming-liberal-superiority".
