Mailvox: character and Constitution

CS objects vociferously:


ANOTHER SKIN-HEAD, AIR-HEAD, SUPERCILIOUS, — AND, I BELIEVE, COWARDLY — “INTELLECTUAL” JERK — OF THE LOST — FREE-LOVE — GENERATION — WITHOUT ANY TRACE OF CHARACTER.

-Retired U.S. Naval Officer (amphibious gunnery)

wounded (I actually bled – and lost consciousness) , but never photographed – never applied for “Hero-First-Class” — or medals

Some people believe that military veterans are above criticism regardless of the subject. Having grown up with a few highly decorated veterans in the family, I do not share that belief. I sent CS the following email:

Afraid of the facts, are you? There are various types of cowardice, sir, and you are exhibiting the intellectual variety. And it’s profoundly silly to attempt to make character judgments on a complete lack of information. Or perhaps you seriously believe that a failure to bow down and lick the jackboot indicates a LACK of character.

There are plenty of veterans who fought, bled, and even lost consciousness who agree with me. They swore to defend the very Constitution on which George Bush now pissing. Didn’t you?
