Mudd:
All I'm saying is it's your right and responsibility to vote. I do because its a freedom fought and died for...I hope everyone will use it to make our country a better place.

These will be my last words on the subject.

If you choose to interpret my words to mean something I didn't, well, there's not much more that can be said to help my meaning or your understanding.

I am sorry if I have offended you or anyone with my statement but I stand by it.

God bless,Mudd

cracker:
Mudd I rarely post in something that turns into an argument but I feel compelled to say good on you and find it vile and disgusting that someone has chosen to start an argument over something like this. I support our troops fervently and remembers our vets with a tear in my eye. Any one who is offended by Mudd's post needs to pipe down and try some place like Iran. Make some anti religeon comments there and see what you get. If it were not for the guys who wear the uniforms in this sountry you would not get to say what you can say here.Ronnie
P.S. I am not in the military nor have I ever been. Yes I did register I am now 50 years old and if I'm called I will go and defend this country till the last breath in my body be she right or wrong.

Gordon:
Cracker, the author of this post is free to say whatever he pleases – this is a free country as you point out. What annoys me is Mr. Mudd’s thinly veiled slap at the current administration under the guise of patriotism which is a clear violation of the no-politics rule for this forum.

--- Quote from: Gordon on May 30, 2010, 10:32:34 am ---Read Mudd's post again hillbilly - it's clear what he is implying. I find it offensive that he would post something like this under the guise of honoring our veterans. Many of those veterans gave their lives to protect the free and democratic kind of government we enjoy today. There are plenty of other forums where rhetoric like this is welcome. I just hope this site won't devolve into that...

 started to stay out of this any more than I had already, but... Gordon, you have taken this so far out of context it is rediculas. You keep twisting and useing the words to fit your own needs.. Take what Mudd said as the way he said he ment it. When he said he was sorry that you took it that way, I think it should have been droped, and not made into a debate of your stance, or any others for that matter!! No body said anything about "the curent administration"  Your words not his!!!

Gordon:
Okay perhaps I am misunderstanding the author’s intent which Mr. Mudd could easily clear up by clarifying which oppressive US government he is referring to.
