Because the volunteer members of our military are the only ones who volunteered to risk their lives for the principles of this country. Not like your pinko moonbeam ass OP. [/quote] The poor bastards in the south don't have much choice because they rarely excel in school. It's either go with their militaristic culture or get a low paying job in textiles or something. Oops, no more textile factories since repub policies had those jobs shipped overseas. [/quote] Your words are dripping with stereotypes and bias. Southerners are just a bunch of dumb rednecks that cling to their bibles and guns, right? BTW - the same military you are now slandering allows you to do so under the blanket of security they provide you. Think about that the next time you want to bite the hand that feeds you. "People sleep peacefully in their beds at night because rough men are willing to do violence on their behalf." [/quote] I don't need a multi-trillion dollar security blanket. Didn't ask for it, don't want it. It was absolutely disgusting how you repubs slandered war hero John Kerry. And Pat Tillman was probably more liberal than me. [/quote] LOL - you are quite naive, aren't you? You will be the first one begging for protection when you need it. I get it - you're an idealist - you wish the world was unicorns and butterflies. Guess what - it ain't. If you think John Kerry was a war hero - perhaps you didn't read his purple heart citations. As far as your Pat Tillman comment - that was hilarious. [/quote] I have ideals but I'm no purist. Military spending is absolutely ridiculous and ruining this country, so I don't want to hear your false heroism. Stick it. Kerry was a true war hero and anybody who slanders him is scum. Tillman was a big fan of Chomsky. I don't go quite that far. [/quote] I truly wish people like you would actually experience the military yourself before slandering it. It's just like any culture - you have to immerse yourself in it before you can really understand it. Instead, you choose to regurgitate the same slogans and one-liners your liberal friends keep telling you. Grow up - learn to walk in someone's shoes before you judge them. Kerry was a traitor and a coward. Ask anyone who served with him. Of course, they are demonized because it doesn't go along with your "version" of reality. I have heard that same lie from others regarding Pat Tillman. You are truly gullible if you believe that. [/quote]

Because there are so many military bases in the south.
WHY are there so many military bases in the south, you ask.
Because the North put them there following the Civil War, in order to make it impossible for the nutty, traitorous biblethumpers to attack the United States again.
The South has warped America from the beginning, when they tried to make the nation religious and Christian. and wrote racism into the Constitution.
It's kind of disgusting that in the year 2012 Congress is still dominated by drawling, rightwing, biblethumping SOUTHERN morons screwing up America with their peculiar beliefs.
