I am a proud canadien/canadian! I am a french canadien! Who the heck am I trying to kid, I am, canadian! I work at a major canadian university. I served in the military while in school! Never went over seas to peacekeep/fight/defend! Would I? Without a second thought!
I think that the single biggest mistake my government has made, in speaking for me, as someone who served, "we" are going to pull out of afghanistan in a combat roll! I was a part-time militia bag that got to play war and camp out on weekends! I just so happened to be really good with a single shot, bolt action, 308 rifle, that was a 100 years old! I went to sniper school! Enough about that! I did not serve in any combat facet, so it means nothing! What "grinds my gears"(H, Simpson), the fact that the war on terror will never be over! The fact that P.M. Harper has said that "we" will pull out our combat troops and "cease" our combined efforts on the war on terror...CHILLS ME! Yes, I have in fact, put words in his mouth. As the reporters have thrown those same words at him, he has not denied them! I will accuse him of being a coward and a bigot! (this is my opinion, do not debate me, please)
How dare any man lessen the life given, for the sake of freedom and the life that shall be lived free! Lord Kingboat (my quote!)
Any who gives their life freely and falls, should be followed by those who are just and are angered! Lord Kingboat (mine again)
I sound like a right wing zealot, a christian nut.(I am not)
These individuals are not religious, they do not love mankind, they do not even love, the idea of acceptable love. They hate out of, ignorance, spiritual dominance and simple economics!
My government has spoken for me and has misspoken!
I am angered, upset and beguiled,
Kingboat.
p.s. I waited until the olympics started to post this! My government is prorogued!
