Politico A plague on all ex-military Republican extremists!

From the other day:

Guess you not a patriotic American? You must be a democrat on the Congressional intelligence committee?

*sigh*

And from the same idiot today (I rejected his political messages on a tech help list):

If by posting this message, [me] would save one American Soldier
from being killed, than Amen.
As you no doubt aware, the internet is not all fun and games.
It is the real world. You ever in the military?
I am also a Vietnam Vet.

People who claim some sort of *special* patriotism by virture of having been in the military piss the hell out of me. I won't even justify that sort of trash by saying whether I or anyone in my family has been in the military just like I wouldn't tell him what my political leanings are in response to his comments about Democrats in his last email. It doesn't matter, his comments are bigoted tripe no matter what my position or background.

But yeah, I'm a Democrat, my grandfather was in the Navy for 30 years, in active combat in the Pacific in WWII and in Korea, my dad was in the Navy too, also in Korea and my brother was in the Navy as well, although he happened to be in between (Republican) wars. And the way *some* Republicans act is enough to make me a "die-hard, ACLU lifetime card carrying member, flaming liberal so far left I'm a commie" just because their righteous, piss on everyone who even slightly disagrees, attitude is so ridiculous.

(And why the hell does this idiot have to email me first thing in the morning so I wake up to his crap before I've even had my coffee or Lexapro???? blechhhhh!)
