The_Dude, like many others are Johnny Come Latelys {sic} who would do better easing into situations that they have no knowledge of. The definition of a Johnny-come-lately is a newcomer, or is someone who is late to accepting a position or late to arriving at an event. A newcomer to an idea who is late in accepting what everyone else already believes to be true is an example of a Johnny-come-lately. Johnny-come-lately dictionary definition | Johnny-come ... www.yourdictionary.com/johnny-come-lately we can still assist him and let him know the backstory on some of this it allow him to do his own research, and when he shows that he is not willing to do so that is when we can cast that judgment or aspersion But I will give him the benefit of the doubt because he knows a rich guy.

My goodness. A friend of mine posted a note I left on his bunk mocking him during my time in Iraq. I was implying he was gay. He took a red pen to it. It was bad. I did not know my 'there's,' or or 'too's'. It was bad. I dropped out of high school in the 10th grade. My grammar sucked. Did it make me stupid? No. It made me uneducated. I know many, smart, and uneducated people. They're a thing.

dpberr Posted August 17, 2018 Share Posted August 17, 2018 I think retired generals should conduct themselves like former POTUS try to do: You can speak your opinions in private, but never to the press, in a speech, etc. I just think it makes them look small when they do it. I hate the cottage industry of retired generals and former special forces/special operations parading around on television opining about everything. I know it's some easy money but It was cooler back in the day where you'd drag one one of these guys out of retirement to discuss tank strategy or the like. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe that's true whenever you post and a likely excuse for you to be unable to grasp a well articulated point. I'll try to remember that you're most likely impaired in the future.
