Perhaps what you didn't read was this:
Soledad: So, while I do not support military action against Iraq, I do not condemn the soldiers who fight, as they are doing what the Government wants them to do.
I posted this on the first page, and was actually DEFENDING soldiers to begin with.
Slave: I never implied that you were against the soliders but you posted your opinion and position on a thread about soliders and the request for their support.
What? Don't you remember typing this or were you too blinded by your unsubstantiated rage?
Slave: SO if you do not like the war or the steps to get to one Fine!! Just do not let the war or the government Sway your feeling toward the soliders out there carrying out the dirty work of our political process. These people need our support. Things they do for us today give all of a secure future that all of our rights will be there for our childern and grandchildern. This is what is important and everyone should realize that!!!!
And as if that wasn't proof enough that you were accusing me, you backtracked in your following post by accusing me YET again.
Slave: By posting your opinion here your actions speak against the soliders, instead of your political view. If you do not Approve of the U.S. forcing the issue of weapons inspection in Iraq. then you have not understood Iraq's roll in the terror attacks on 9/11/01. But that is not the issue here! This Whole thread is about Our Troops Overseas in whatever capacity and that was all.
Slave: Also if you can not support your opinion without getting defensive, That is something that I can not help you with. I merely pointed out to you that your view is not rounded in all the facts.
Excuse me, but you were the one who came railing in at me with your "facts". If you would like me to get into a factual debate with you, I am more than willing, but I will not enter into one with someone who has been hostile since his first entry.
I also never said America was a bully, and I'd appreciate you not putting words in my mouth. You are obviously unstable and I do not feel comfortable talking to you further if you continue with YOUR hostile attitude. If you want to take things down a couple of notches and actually talk about things rationally, that's great. But I assure you, I am not a novice in this area and I am not uninformed. I commend you for your service and your experience, and I am actually interested in hearing your side but not so long as you carry on in this fashion. If you noticed, this thread was fine before you came in. Sure people weren't agreeing, but they weren't shouting and throwing their weight around.
