Rick, re your WARNING TO LIBERAL post and as a veteran I must tell you, you don't know what the hell you're talking about. I'm guessing you were NEVER a veteran, and as so I would appreciate it greatly if you (& others like you) wouldn't make broad judgement and ASSumptions about us. About the only true assumption you can make about most veterans is, that we all love America, but that doesn't necessarly mean that we buy into the policies of the administration while we're in uniform. To give you an example how wrong your thinking is, I was trained to be a Field Corpman, basically what that mean in combat situation I would be attached to a Marine unit in the field providing initial medical care. Now I'm a Vietnam era veteran, and I was against the Vietnam War as were many other veterans, but if I was given the orders to go over there, I would have went. Not because I believed in the war but simply because I had a duty and obligation and the training to provide medical care to Marines.
