Voice your opinion through the vote. Thing is there are rules covering such activities and they are not the same for servicemen and civilians, we shall see what happens. They can go marching all they want, it will change Nothing, it sure as heck is not going to push Paul into the lead in the GOP race.

The trick doesn't work with me. And I would speak against it, if you choose to speak what was supposed to be your choice, and use it to play politics. I see plenty of nuts along the lines, building or trying to build a political career out of it, playing with people's emotions.

A person loses credibility to me when he/she uses "service" as a platform, this sense of entitlement. Here's to them... you shouldn't have signed up if you can't handle it. I respect more guys like one I occasionally stop by to have a beer or two with.

Never said it would. You seem to have this misguided concept that all of my world and all of my thoughts/reactions here are single-minded and only focus on RP...and that couldnt be further from the truth.

He is the choice of SOME troops. There corrected it for ya. FYI, I do not bother with Paul U-Tubes, or an others for that matter, U-Tube is not a viable source of news, so you are wasting your time posting them to me.

You also ignore the FACT that Ron Paul gets more donations from active military personnel than all other candidates combined. Including Obama.

Why do they sign up? To complain about it later?

So if a rule or law is unjust don't ever do a thing to change it, just quit. If that's how you do things that's your call for yourself only, just don't expect others to roll over.
You should go and see what real military personnel look like. You might learn a thing or two.

I don't know what that means. Why do people sign up for the military, you mean? Did you make a joke and I didn't get it?
