In case anyone is wondering, this is what the RINOs are saying about the military these days:

"Right now, many of us vets are looking back on our years of service and wondering what the hell we did it all for. We used to know – for the USA. Yet you look at the disaster that is our country, our culture, and our beloved military, and you just want to go find a wall and pound your head against it. But a lot fewer folks are going to have this problem in the future because a lot fewer young people are joining our military. The Pentagon can't meet its recruiting goals, and, of course, the fault is our young people, our potential soldiers, for being unwilling to sacrifice their time, and sometimes their lives, in support of the bizarre social pathologies that our garbage ruling class embraces.

"The military lost our trust, and it seems uninterested in earning it back. Time for the normals to go on strike until the military becomes a military again instead of a camouflaged faculty lounge."

Kurt Schlicter annoys me because he is a day late & a dollar short on many issues that I care about, but I've felt this way about the military in recent years. 20 years ago, I bought into Bush's ideas about 9/11, Afghanistan, and Iraq. I'm no pacifist, but I regret my support of Bush, now. And I regret the Obama vs. McCain choice in 2008, because Obama was at war with someone for literally 8 years--the longest of any American president. McCain, also, was an awful choice.

Now I really believe that we have a uni-party that behind the scenes tosses out all of these cultural issues just to keep the population at an even split so that we hate each other instead of the warmongering thieves who tax and inflate us into exhaustion.

But I just thought people would like to know that the semi-right wing isn't happy with the military, either.
