Highly Praised Naval Officer--Guess Who?

[skeeter]

Wacko!.. (aka Packo)

Formost, when I said go take a nap on your quilt, I didn't intend for you to have a 24 hour one. You must have puffed a few more joints than you normally do.

I will try to weed(not a pot smoker's joint)"plant" in your fried brain some facts, if that can be the case.

With reference to my daughter's professional career. She has two Masters with Double Majors (you can buy them down at the 7-11 store) degrees in Psychology. And I may report she is a past-President of the American Academy of Clinical Psychology. And if you say you are. The American Academy is holding their annual meeting in Los Angeles on May 16, 2004, and if you are invited, you may just meet her.
However, I have no fear of that, as you "never, "nor tried", "nor exceeded", "and failed", as part of your brain is cooked so bad, it cannot and will never make a recovery, no matter how many treatments you encounter.

So I have a perfect solution. It works about 99% of the time.

I know you hate "old Skeeter" so bad, so here goes.

Get yourself a good working gun.. preferably a .45 cal, or a 357 Magnum. There is some art to this, so here are the directions..
You must play the part of "old Skeeter", as you want him out of your mind., and that is you put the gun barrel to your forehead. There is that certain spot.. it must be just above the center of the eyes, and right between the eyebrows. Now you know "old Sheeter" dislikes pot-smoking druggies, and other "low-life" humans, and he made a remark about you being an "SOB" from the restaurant joke some days back, and the "poppy-field" trips. You are so angry, you have to get rid of him. Now!. ease back on the trigger, must not jerk, just squesse it so-slowly.. "Old Skeeter" is just about to tell you, he knew some low-life person that put his shoes under your Mother's bed nine months before you was born... PULL THE TRIGGER.. WACKO!

Did I just see Dr. Jack Kevorkian there to assist.

That was pretty poor Skeeter. My opinion of you from your postings has dropped a notch or two.

I'm pretty new to this site but what I just read from Skeeter scares the hell out of me.Your retired Navy and seem to have a good life and family,yet you give no thanks to the men and women who sacrficed their lives so you could have that. You must be in that Kerry state of mind.Did you throw your medals over the Wall. You sound very bitter. The men and women who are fighting over in Iraq are their because thats what they joined to do, FIGHT for their COUNTRY and for FREEDOM even if its for people like you who write such rubbish. I'm going to Boston on Wednesday to rally for our President and to make sure that that lier of a Senator does not see the White House. Shame on you!

Dakotaman:

I know you may be new to the Patriot Files, and I welcome you here.
However, you have missed a lot of my posts.. I'm the old military type, not the one that don't give a damm.

Now for my views. I'm proud of my military service and I spent a lot of time and effort making it meet the Navy standards. In the number of commands I was given, there was no shirking of duty by any officer or enlisted personnel. Some tried, and some thought about it from waiting their time in the brig. I was noted as.. HOM90.. (90 days).
I'm grateful for every man and women who wares the military uniform, and mostly those that fought and gave their lives in battle. and many that came home with loss of limbs and traumas. And those that fought and didn't win any wars, like the Korea and Vietnam. Wars where politics had to set the agendas, not the Generals.
If I was the President of the United States, I would try and meet ever returning plane that bears the war dead and wounded. I would show some compassion to our fighting troops and not be on a campaign trying to get reelected to office.

With reference to the original post here. It was about Kerry and Bush. One went to war and fought, maybe not the best he could have done.. War is War, and it has no boundries, it doesn't select who is the weak and who is brave. Some fight their best and die, some fight like a coward and live.

It may be when GWB went to war with Irag, he felt not one mililitary troop would die for his actions. He set the command and he has to face the facts on the outcome, Win or Lose..

Some on this forum lacks the logic to reason, as if it's all black and white and no gray area. I'm sure we all here on the Partiot Files have flaws, and I have certainly showed my share on here.
But I will stand and list my views, and when someone starts to slander useing family members, then I can stand with the best of them. And I will not make the post and later delete it so as if no one witness it.

You have been on here a short time, and you have already picked up the standards of some. Where did you get the idea that I may have thrown away my medals? By reading what John Kerry had done and you assumed all Navy men did the same.
You wrote saying, I was bitter.. Bitter of what? Because I don't feel GWB is a good enough president, or you feel I'm a Demorcat and that makes me the bad guy. I didn't say on here I was a Democrat or a Republican. For you information, I have voted for Dwight D. Eisenhower, John Kennedy, Richard Nixon, Jimmy Carter, Ronald Reagan, William Clinton. Now can you give me your vote selections? Or they all of one party?

[Dakotaman]

Are you for real? Do you really think the President went to war thinking there would be no deaths ? I think thats the unrealistic views for some of the liberal minded at home .Instant gratification. Go kick ass, come home and everything and everyones O.K. ., It just does'nt happen that way as you know. People die in wars and hopefully not in vain, lets not forget this is an all volunteer army who I believe went over to Iraq proud to serve their country. I will never forget where I was on 9-11 and that night to get a phone call from my aunt telling me my cousin Robby was on Flight11. He left a wife and two kids. The terrorist did'nt give him a choice. I also remember how the country came together,some even called it a wake-up call. American Flags everywhere, on homes, on cars and in every window. What happened? John Kerry runs for President and all we can talk about is Viet Nam and his medals or are they ribbons ?Interchangeable according to him. Lets keep our President who has shown he will not cave to these terrorists or the next President you vote for will not only have no military service in this country he will not be a citizen of the United States.

[skeeter]

My deepest sympathy go out to your aunt who loss her son in Flight 11, and to you for the loss of a cousin. My feelings go to all the family members who loss sons, daughters, fathers and mothers from the terrorist acts on the Twin Towers.

You are probably correct.. I am for real! And I still feel GWB had thoughts the Irag's would throw down their weapons and run, as they did in the Desert Storm action and the loss of life would me nil to what it has become today.

All men and women who volunteer for military service, should understand they may be called to fight for their country. And should that not be the case, they should leave.
You may remember, some years past the Army did a lot of commericals on joining the Army. It was all about getting their education in the Army and "be all that you want to be" theme.
Some never intended it to be, and that it was part of a chance of fighting.

To me, I could care less of what John Kerry or the other Vietnam veterans did with their medals.. But what does concern me, is the fact there were others(veterans) that protested the war. Are you saying, all the other veterans that got a "little scratch" should not be given a Purple Heart? Now they could be Democrats and Republicans in that group. Are you going to select the Democrats as the bad guys?
There just may be a school principal-superintendent, your doctor, or a church minister that protested and threw his medals.
By that action, you and others make all Vietnam veterans look like war protesters and didn't earn their medals in the right form.

By the way, all forms of decorations to military is called medals. Medals and Ribbons are one in the same.

very educated doesn't have to mean very intelelligent

[Dakotaman]

Thank-you for your sympathy, my cousin was a young man with a great future cut short by people who hate us for what we stand for.
I to could care less what Kerry did with his medals. What I care about is the fact he is using the Viet Nam War as a platform to get elected on.He is the one keeping this on the table, but when Clinton was being questioned about being a draft dodger he said " It should not matter what his military service was," another flip flop. The President said it was going to be a long war and if you think Kerry is going to go in and take us out I have some swamp land I'd like to sell you.
It is also clear to most that some of the young men and women in the service went to get a free education never feeling they would be called to serve. How many thought terrorist would fly aircrafts into the WTC and the Pentagon and into a field in Pennsylvania. We have the best military in the World and its there to protect the best Country in the World and it's Citizens. I'm tired of the "feelings flock" keeping us from doing what needs to be done. I don't think the Kerry's, Gore's Carter's and Clinton's of the world can do that. All lip service . Proud to be an American
and "Thank-You Skeeter for your service to our Country."

Since others here have answered you much better than deserved already,...I'll just stick to correcting your misinforming norm, even regarding ribbons and medals being one in the same. That's just not so.

Excluding many foreign militaries, The American Military normally wears ribbons instead of the actually awarded medals on their uniforms. Except for special occasions, the actual medals are normally kept in their presentation cases or displayed proudly under glass in ones home. Or as in Kerry's debacle, misused gratuitously and solely for political purposes,...even as absurd as The Military, Veteran and America insulting and enemy helpful and encouraging, as was the actual case. Besides, ANY 27 year old should know better. Don't you think?

But then, and since America's dems/libs/socialists think, take orders, obey and pontificate so similarly as their foreign counterparts,...one can certainly understand your misunderstanding and misinforming. After all, French, German and Russian Generals always wear all their actual medals, even when in civilian dress. Surprised that they just don't roll over from all that top heavy weight.
