So then, the Iraq wars and the Viet Nam war were fully justified and folks should quit bitching about them. |

The only people I've heard trying to make them into ammunition are Trumplicans
Biden's son served in Iraq
Tweety dodged the draft in Vietnam, though he had his own personal war against STDs while dating and can't remember what foot his bone spurs were on. |

I've heard a lot of people on the right and left say that those wars were not justified, were even illegal, were America interfering in other people's business, America trying to nation build, the ClA and the pentagon lying or justifying their requests for money, immoral, and all kind of street protests against them, as well as condemnations from our major medias as well as from politicians, especially from the left. |

" History shows your Armed Services statement is highly questionable and that there is some merit to what Trump said.
Biden's son served in Iraq
What's that got to do with the veracity of your Armed Services statement. Biden's other son was discharged from the navy because of his cocaine use. Is that significant of Biden's character or view of the military, or qualification to be President?
My only real concern about Biden is that as President he will be a Progressive tool.

Yeah, well he had bone spurs and Joe Biden had asthma so neither served. In this election, I don't care about that. Use it as some political tool to defeat Trump since for you defeating him is your political casus belli, your election sine qua non. For me it is not about him or Biden. My "casus" and "sine" is defeating, for the moment, the Progressive destruction of our constitutional order . . . what's left of it. |

The comment was made about the generals, not the POTUS. You know the "f*ck*ng generals are a bunch of pussies. They care more about their alliances than they do about trade deals.”
Those guys. |

Yeah, well Pete's Armed Services statement was made by those guys. And the Iraq and Viet Nam wars, in the eyes of many, belie that statement. |
