I signed up because I wanted to serve and defend my country.  But now that I'm in, I defend every other dang country but the United States of America.  I'm helping "defend" Korea, now there's the possibility of Iraq?  Whatever.   I'm suppose to defend these countries just to get spit on later?  I'm tired of caring more about the rest of the world when my fellow Americans go without health care, jobs, education, etc.  I draw the line with Iraq.  That is bullshit.  And to have the President lying to me? There's nothing I hate more than I liar.  Yeah, that person going AWOL because he didn't believe in war is stupid and he should get maximum punishment.

Gotta say I'm with you on that one...
desertion in the face of the enemy can carry a death penalty; and it should! Read your about me page...good taste.
