The Unhinged Left.....
I am one who was a little girl during Vietnam. It is one of my clearest memories as a Kid sitting in front of the TV hearing the score card reported by the media, 268, 350, 202 how many Amercians died that day in the war.
Yep, I am the one you did all that for! And I am happy to report I have enjoyed living in the lap of luxury of Freedom and Liberty so generously afforded to me by the few. : > )
Its what set me up to be Conservative Woman as an adult I cannot have an opinion on McCain, because I did not serve. But I believe you.
You have EVERY right to make an informed opinion! Just because you did not serve does not mean you give up your God-given right to think for yourself. You can gather information and make your opinion and have every right to espouse that opinion.
Please, never let someone tell you that you have no say on topics just because you did not wear the uniform of military service, or any other topic. You probably have a very firm opinion on the deficit and our monetary policy yet you probably don't have a degree in economics. That doesn't mean you don't have the right to voice an informed opinion on the subject.
I wore the uniform of our Armed Services for over 20 years and will never tell someone they have no right to talk about our military or military policy. As a matter of fact, non-military having discussions with military will always allow for the exchange of ideas, whether good or bad, but that is the only way we can all learn, grow, and improve.
If you have an opinion, please, speak your piece. Both sides of the argument will learn if they have the wont to do so.
