You say that as if i've been known to lie. Cite one example.

But what do I know? I'm obviously an uneducated laborer who only hangs with professional escorts when the bossman finally pays me. Doove found me out! LOL!!!!111

Sounds like a non-denial denial. Saying "I run in a professional crowd" on an internet forum is as easy as saying "i have a 10 inch dick" on an internet forum. But even separate from that, assuming it is the truth, it could very well mean you "run with a crowd of people who all make $50,000/yr". Those are not the people TTH is talking about.

No, TTH is talking about the elitists like himself, who are happy to tell others what to do, but when it comes to putting your own on the line, he buys his way out. Kind of like Cheney.

20 years from now, when some US city has been eased from the map, we'll all be saying Cheney was right and President Truman will be blamed for it.

What in the hell was Cheney ever right about, and how in the hell would that prevent an attack on the US? Iraqi WMDs? War after war after war? So far, the only thing Cheney was right about was shooting that lawyer.

Then your experience is vastly different from mine. If these kids have economic and educational opportunity such as going to good private universities, then why are they willing to devote years to their life to working for substantially below market pay in a job with no other rewards and delaying their education and careers? I'm genuinely curious.

Hmmm . . . perhaps values? patriotism? a desire to give back? a sense of duty? All things I wouldn't expect you to understand, TTH.

Your opinion of these brave men and women is appalling.

u may not know families that r so rich that the kids can do what they want and dont have 2 worry about making money. some men actually like doing manly things like join the military. maybe u dont know men who like 2 do manly things. lol in some wealthy circles, even black circles, military service is common. of cource the elite are in the military elite.

There are some of those "well-to-do" families, who encourage their children to enter the military to instill principles of disclipline and team-work that is not available in just about every "private" school in this country, unless it is "private" in the tradition of West Point or the Naval Academy. Some of those "well-to-do" families have a "graduate" of WWII to establish "guiding" principles of service and honor....and those principles were passed on down to the "graduates" of subsequent military activities from the Korean War forward. And Thank God for their loyalty, and SACRIFICE.
