[Cannoneer No. 4]

The contempt for Red State America just drips in this article. This is an example of enemy psychological warfare, designed to impede recruiting. I'll be blogging this later, after I've cooled down.

I am pinging the Mississippi list.

Now, I'll go read the article.

Note what wet rag printed the article. "The Standard" has not been known to be a friend of the US.

[onyx]

Please ping me when you have 'blogged' and have cooled down.

It's so late, I am almost afraid to read it now because it might keep me awake.

I'M VERY SORRY I SAW THIS **@! BEFORE GOING TO BED.
It is written in an enemy propaganda style.

"Patriotism and bleak demographics make the young men of Mississippi ideal cannon fodder for the war in Iraq."

On the other hand we have:

"Unpatriotic and well-to-do elite Liberalism demographics make the young men of Massachusetts ideal propaganda agents for the terrorists in Iraq."

Will you stop reading Pravda before going to bed?!?!?!! ;)

Looks like somebody who used to hang around with my son.

Typical BS article. My son graduated with a 4.33 GPA, all '5's on AP exams and enough credits to be a college sophomore when he picked up his high school diploma. Thiry days later he reported to Marine Corps boot camp. He signed up for the reserves before his senior year in high school. Cannon fodder? Hardly. Lance Corporal in the USMC Reserves. Served in Iraq/Kuwait. Graduating with a BA in business this July. He just turned 23 last week. He has a California real estate broker's license, 15 employees and runs two corporations. Cannon fodder indeed.

I can't finish the read tonight.
I am too mad.

This is in a CHINESE paper!! What business is it of these commies, literally, who the heck is in our military!! And who is Ann Hull? Is she a disillusioned Brit or an ex-pat American?

My husband, a US Army retiree, will tell you, with no coaxing, that he joined the Army initially because his folks were too poor to help him go to college. A tour in Korea and 2 (complete) tours in 'Nam later, he will also tell you he is glad he joined.

I don't think I've ever been subjected to a "soggier" bit of journalism in my life!

[vetvetdoug]

I can recognize and smell feces when I see it. Mississippi has poor folks and the military is a good place to advance oneself. I did it with the help of the USAF. This article is typical leftist liberal excrement.

[LibLieSlayer]

This article is racist, bigoted, snobbish, elitist, and DEAD WRONG! I'd like to sit this b!tch down in one of the fire ant beds in my back yard, but I would cover her in Maple syrup first!

I can guarandamntee you that the 30% of meth-headed thugs that fail to graduate High School here ARE NOT the same youth that enlist in "OUR" Military. I can also guarandamntee you that this Peavy Electronics employee has never even thought about China... that is before the interviewer outright asked her about it.

The attitude displayed in this "hit piece" is why Charlie Gibson (of ABC's Good Morning America) was booed and run back into his car in Biloxi, MS. (East Point by the old National Guard Armory, 4 days after Katrina hit), when he started trying to interview people picking up the pieces of their lives. Foxnews crews were embraced.

Mississippians will NEVER listen to these satanists, and Mississippians will NEVER fail to come to the aid of "OUR" Nation.

The SOUTH fought a War to secede from the Union, and ironically today, it is the SOUTH that firmly defends and keeps "OUR" Nation and its ideals!

To all leftists, media, and enemies:

YOU ARE EITHER WITH US, OR AGAINST US... IF IT IS THE LATTER... YOUR DAY IS COMING BUD!

Contempt is right! It durn near made my blood boil, and I'm at church at the moment.

[PsyOp]

I'll bet that one of those turn-coat generals the media-leftists love came from a poor state and used the military for their leg up.

To the left, the only good military men are those who attack the commander in chief.
