Yes liberals just don't hate the military they hate the USA. That is why they elected Obama to transform the USA. That's how much they hate the country and everything it stands for.
Why is it that liberals hate the military so much? Not just the concept, but the individuals. Here's one example:
“You know, education, if you make the most of it, if you study hard and you do your homework, and you make an effort to be smart, uh, you, you can do well. If you don’t, you get stuck in Iraq.†- John Kerry
And just in general, everywhere you turn there's a leftist group hating on our men and women in uniform. It's always the left that's calling them pigs or war mongerers.
Here's an example where liberal PUBLIC school system in San Francisco dumped JROTC:
Liberals, why do you hate the military so much? Why do you hate these men and women in uniform? These people sacrifice their lives so you can vote your ill-informed ways. Have you a shred of appreciation?
Seriously? There's very few liberals that absolutely hate the military, most of us just don't like the size of the Military Empire we have. We don't believe the military needs as many foreign bases as it has nor as much funding as it has. My ideal Military budget would be about $450-500 billion (with inflation adjustments), why should we be the military for certain nations? And conservatives don't pretend as if you care about the people of those nations that our military bases are in; we're their for our own interest, not there's. We have truly built a military industrial complex in this nation and I guess some of us are too blind to see it.
That might be some of the stupidest garbage you have ever written, good job. Actually we liberals love the USA and we have no interest in handing it over to the nut jobs on the far right so that they can turn our country into some god fearing Christian haven where anyone who is non Christian is punished. Also, we aren't the ones trying to secede from the US, only the far right nut jobs are doing that cause they love America so much that they want to leave.
Oh and we liberals love the military so much that we are willing to provide aid to the veterans....you know the bill that Republicans shot down cause they said we couldn't afford it even though we owe it to our troops who have risked their lives in two pointless wars that were started during a Republican in office.
You Cons love to send our troops to war to fight and die, but god forbid we do anything to take care of them when they get home. Heck, I bet you are hoping the get their pensions cut too with this whole fiscal cliff.
You can't talk about cutting government spending and not cut the military. The military-industrial complex is the epitome of excess spending and government waste.
I'd rather spend my tax money on M-4s and SS109 than some hoes birth control and welfare.
Why not cut both, then? You guys are always talking about reducing spending, well here's your chance! I think the annual spending is about equal (military may even cost more), and both could use some major slashing. No?
