He was not “shocked.” Right-wingers are the worst offenders when it comes to concealing the barbarism of war behind fancy titles and medals. Thanks to lying recruiters (though they don’t necessarily lie about what the real consequences of the job of killing brown people is) armed with federal money and promises to give people decent-paying jobs and a college education, some people have few choices to achieve the so-called American dream. But it’s so hard to even get desperate people that they’ve been letting in skin heads! Way to go assholes. Clearly the magical fantastical, totally illogical and ahistorical commitment to the military and American imperialism is so supportable that someone who would oppose it and try to research the largely under reported air war in Iraq is “scum.” You people are probably “equal opportunity critics” like the libertarians Trey Parker and Matt Stone of sometimes claim to be.

Thought I’d inject a bit of reality into this pathetic, hipster dick-measuring contest of a website.
