You didn't answer my question directly, but this reply tells me what I need to know. You have made it quite clear that you hold all those who currently serve in the military and all those who have served in the past, including our DU veterans, in utter contempt. Wow.

I don't like war any better than the next person, but I'm a realist, not a pacifist. I have great respect for those who have served, and great disdain for those who disrespect them.
