You’re building castles in the air – soldiers are merely a snapshot of our less-fortunate population at large, no better, no worse. How else could the “phony soldiers” (Democrats) of dildo-head fame even exist if this were not the case? Most GIs have joined to better their lives, maybe score some college money – they’re not all looking for glory and would mostly prefer to leave the real action to the jarheads like yourself. I know this – I grew up in one of those never-never lands of military co-dependency known as Killeen, Texas, situated in a county that consistently weighs in among the highest crime and domestic abuse rates in the state, including Houston and Dallas. Surely the proximity of the largest military base in the free world would counterbalance that distrurbing fact were it truly populated by the kind of virtuous individuals that you have created in your own mind. It has not.

I’ll let John Stuart Mill answer for me:

War is an ugly thing, but not the ugliest of things. The decayed and degraded state of moral and patriotic feeling which thinks that nothing is worth war is much worse. The person who has nothing for which he is willing to fight, nothing which is more important than his own personal safety, is a miserable creature and has no chance of being free unless made and kept so by the exertions of better men than himself.

So, yeah. I do think that — as a whole — those in the military and veterans are better men than any other collective group.

But you already knew that.

Aren’t you glad there are stories like this to reinforce your firm belief that you are so much better than other people?

I knew it was coming up, and they actually had a news clip on Brit Hume’s Special Report yesterday, from the White House ceremony.
They are some really serious bad-a$$ mofos, with the best toys available. God Bless’em all, we need them in this dangerous world.
