I’m also smart enough that I never enlisted

Holy shit. That means that you actually do believe that people who enlist aren’t smart enough. I happen to know a few people who enlisted who were very smart. I can’t believe you’d actually admit to thinking something like that.

It’s pretty obvious that it was not smart to enlist to fight the War on Terror. It was all bullshit, since Saudi Arabia was the perpetrator of 9/11 and we never attacked them.

I’m not afraid to admit anything that I honestly believe. I’m quite content with the quality of my character and beliefs, and my life is pretty great.

Great! Now that you’ve freely admitted that you think you’re smarter than any enlisted person, what other beliefs do you have that would get you pilloried if you admitted them publicly? For example, maybe you think that some races are smarter than others, or perhaps you think the sexes are not equal.

If you’re not afraid to admit anything that you honestly believe, then you should have no problem listing your other bigotries right here.

Wow you are really reaching for some hate material aren’t you. You want to build up a “bad guy” persona to represent me, because you don’t like the ideas that I have expressed.

Bottom line is that I’m here to stand for the rights of Americans, and I will never acquiesce to any restrictions on our freedom. That’s what the topic was about and I’m done.
