I watched it. Biden did perfectly fine.

Remember: Democrats are now the party interested in projecting American strength. Republicans are the new isolationists.

You aren’t using that phrase correctly. 
There is no beyond the wire, it’s outside the wire, you couldn’t answer any of my very basic questions of Iraq that anybody who has spent more than a layover would know, yet you claimed you served particularly in Iraq.

 

Do not take credit for actual combat vets. We both know there is a hierarchy within the military and you are not a combat vet nor will you ever be.

I didn’t answer your basic questions because they are an insult I’m not here to take a test. You can look up any of the military groups that I mentioned whenever I was laying out my military service and a simple google search for sure that they are all true.

 

Don’t point at me about stolen valor whenever you literally have not explained any of your combat experience while I have

 

I have nothing to prove to you I gave 10 years of my life to the country. Don’t have any idea how many years you gave or where you were at, and I never asked you by the way because frankly it’s uncalled.for

for all I know you’re just a call to duty game player 

 

if you truly were a communications veteran, you would understand what security clearance means, and not being able to divulge information

Well, this is interesting because you still have many Republicans that are absolute Warhawks, but that’s why they’re so disorientated because their party really doesn’t stand for anything anymore and it shows

You already know I’m not a call of duty player because I asked questions that were specific about Iraq that combat veterans already knew but you couldn’t answer. You are on the defensive because you know I called you out, because Combat Veterans are very good about that, we see people like you who try and puff themselves to feel important and their opinions hold more weight but when it comes to the small details for some reason it’s classified and nobody can answer where they were in Iraq, like you…….

 

Which is interesting because if it’s so classified exactly where you were at in Iraq then you probably shouldn’t have divulged that you even ever were in Iraq to begin with when you were supposed to be an another country.

 

 

Or you are full of *****.

I’m not defensive at all I have actually answer more questions then you you are attempting to make me defensive by all of these accusations of stolen valor, which I find comical

 

And it’s not classified that I was in Iraq. I actually received a medal for it.  What I did there is classified and that’s why I won’t divulge any further information about it.
 

by the way, you still have not mentioned anything that you did while you were in the service. I haven’t pressed on that because that really should be your preference, but why would you try to push someone else about their service?

Though it looks like you have recently been surpassed in terms of fervor, you have long been the board’s leading anti-Zionist. From that rather odious perspective what do YOU think Biden should do?

[SCBills]

Using what happened in Israel to push for more Ukraine funding is so disgusting.

 

They know the public supports funding Israel, but has grown weary of the Ukraine/Russia forever war.

 

So what do they do?   Link the funding.

$98 Billion.  I don't have any objection to providing support for who our government considers "allies".  What I object to is the business model employed by the people in Washington.  Its bad, for American taxpayers. 

 

Congress passes legislation, the President signs it, the Treasury authorizes the borrowing of $98,000,000,000, and the US taxpayer assumes the liability of paying the money back.  In this arrangement the taxpayers assume 100% of the direct cost and derive 0% of the direct benefit.  Who gets the benefit?  The politicians, the foreign countries, and the people supplying the goods and services the $98B covers.  Its equivalent to you footing the bill for an expensive meal for 20 "friends" while you're  left to stand on the sidewalk outside the restaurant watching them enjoy their meal through the front window.  What a pal they all say!  Who would agree to such an arrangement with their personal finances? 

 

If we're on the hook for the payments its reasonable to expect something back.  Isn't it?  How about Israel and Ukraine send the US treasury every year for 20 years 5% of their tax receipts in order to service the loans?  Something like this?  

 

Ancient Rome used to charge about 10% for protection and support.  Simply, the US Empire's system of financing support for allies and provinces is flawed.   Its inverted.  Not only to we get nothing in return, we pay them!  How can we afford this?  We're already $33 Trillion in the hole with no way out.

Look, Biden flew overnight to Israel, had a bunch of meetings in 8 hours there, flew back, then gave an Oval Office address. I'll say pretty impressive for an 80 year old.

Should we be electing 80 year olds? I'd still say no. But still ... pretty impressive.

I believe you. You don't have to try to justify your service to this clown.  Thanks for your service.
