Counter Point

This guy was spoiling for an argument. Him and his teen son tried to provoke several people but got no takers. He did not have much to say when when one lady (carrying a picture of her son in his Marine Uniform) asked him when his son was going join the infantry.

His message seems reasonable to me from this photograph, but it doesn't show the larger sign at his feet with the "You Might Be A Stupid Liberal If". It only served to make people more dismissive of him and the valid point made about our military. I mentally placed him in the same group of people that were comparing Bush with the Anti-Christ. Both ends of the spectrum seemed equally ignorant.

I guess I identified with the more moderate people I saw that were not "Peaceniks", but simply upset with the squandering of vast amounts of money as well as the lives brave young men and women. I have talked with a lot of people that have been in the "Sandbox" and there seems to be one common conclusion. It does not matter when we get out. 10 weeks from now or 10 years from now, these people are going to have a civil war.
