Military images (Facebook) to counter "Occupy" - and my response





My response to both:
Oh sweet Jesus, the lies and bankrupting influences are what got them there in the first place. And the torture and other war crimes didn't help. This isn't about them - they are just doing their job (I know). They have a lot in common with the Occupy-ers at least both of them can put in the time. TeaBaggers do an hour or two (on National Park land ironically) and then go home to watch glowing media coverage of their astroturf "movement".

1. I'd have said
Tens of thousands of soldiers have fought and died for our rights. If we do not exercise those rights, they will have died in vain.

3. One swallow does not make a summer...
Two photographs, only one of which has the very few people being photographed commenting on the OWS effort, do not make a consensus WRT the feelings of the Armed Forces as a whole on the topic of these efforts.

Don't read into it more than it is--some nitwit with too much time on his hands farting around on Facebook.

Not worthy of a response. You only give 'em a notion that their halfassed little efforts are getting any attention.

7. If memory serves, there have been quite a few over seas veterans involved in OWS.

If they had a clue they wouldn't be over there.
