Thanks VFW and to all the Vets.
Exactly.... Good post..

you're playing keyboard neo fascist. you actually believe that Ron Paul would have delivered? Get real. Sure, he had good things to say but so did Obama. As for Clinton and NAFTA shame on him, but American jobs were disappearing before that. look at the labels on your clothing and see how many Made in Sri Lanka or Made in Pakistan laberls there are. Buy American, inspect the labels when you shop. Patriotism is the last refuge of a scoundrel.

Don't steal quotes and try to pass them off as your own - Thief! When Samuel Johnson made that statement, it wasn't to condemn patriotism itself, but to comdemn false patriotism. As far as you "neo-facist" crap goes, you have no clue!

Politics are fun but I also like ***-kicking:

After I came home from the Army, I went to a party with a friend. There was a guy there with a Mo-Hawk wearing an Army dress shirt and some cut off jean shorts. It was quite obvious this guy had never earned the right to wear the shirt. I politely told him that he could either leave and change his shirt or it going to get ripped off of him. He left.

Politics don't belong here.
You did the right thing. Unfortunately a lot of military clothing wound up in surplus or vintage clothing stores and anyone could buy them.

I think I'll just keep my opinions to myself and leave it at that.
