Since this has made the inevitable descent into politicization, I'll chime in. Like I said before, though, this is more about Byrd's words than it is about the Army.
Do you think that anyone would *want* to join the military if they didn't have nationalistic propaganda hammered constantly into their brains? People are free to think, yes, but for all intents and purposes, thinking is limited to specific parameters. "Defend your country, earn your keep, don't question what we pass off as democracy."
I've got nothing against soldiers, per se (my dad's a vet, in fact); it's more that I found it ironic that relatively hawkish old Senators can call dogfighting barbaric while insisting on the necessity of war.
And just so the grossly uninformed can have a share in whatever irony exists here, Pantera guitarist and songwriter Dimebag Darrell was actually shot onstage in 2004 by a crazed fan.
No, no, you don't understand. Save rare exceptions, all must loop. There will be no endings here.
And this particular loop is working just fine for me in Firefox. SO USE IT BITCH.
