Edited on Wed Aug-27-08 09:29 PM by Philosoraptor
brokejaw says Clinton chose not to serve in the military while mccain was languishing in a POW camp, inferring that only a man who has been a prisoner of the Vietnam war can serve as president, and anyone who protested against it can't.

FUCK YOU TOM BROKEJAW, what fucking branch did YOU serve in? Are we to assume that you yourself are only half a man because you didn't wear the uniform? Are you unpatriotic or something asshole? Can you no longer contain your hatred of the liberals and your ass kissing of your white house employers, you miserable excuse for an orator and journalist?

And besides, FUCK you tom brokejaw, who died and made YOU the judge of who is qualified to be the president or not?

You miserable piece of shit, you really showed your ass tonight and removed ALL DOUBT as to who pays your rent, and whose ass you kiss, so fuck you tom broke jaw.

13. Not in the beginning.
They just made him one by punishing him every time he stepped out of line. Then he became a big one and seemed to lose his love for what he was doing. He stepped in step with the rest of them.

15. Maybe Brokaw considers himself an armchair warrior.
He is acting awfully puffy.

16. Another reason I hate the bastard
The REAL "greatest generation" was the pioneers who endured incredible hardships to establish towns and cities and railroads and telegraph lines...so that, years later, a shithead like Tom Brokaw could ignore everything they ever did.

10. Funny, I don't recall Tom's outrage about the Republican purple heart bandaids
in 2004. When Republicans ran AWOL and 5 Deferments, that didn't seem to bother Tom.

18. Yup. Bush was "languishing" in Alabama, not even bothering to show up for his NG duty and
Cheney languished through 4 education deferments and then knocked up his wife when those "priorities" ran out.

What a total and complete fockwit.

17. Man, if some of these people only knew how many fuck-ups I served with...
Edited on Thu Aug-28-08 01:09 AM by Vickers
...it would BLOW THEIR GODDAM MINDS.

Military service is not some magic wand you wave over someone to make them better or whatever.




FTR, I am not saying *I* wasn't a fuck-up, also.

:P
