Why the F did you send him there to defend Unocals gas pipeline? You shits ... send your own kids and save the F'n rhetoric ... AND HOW DARE YOU QUOTE PAINE... Washington congress are all skunks and they are all bought and paid for crooks.

24 years old and his blood is on YOUR hands. I hope Unocal likes their F'n gas pipeline to Pakistan, paid for with the blood of our children.

But I could be wrong :) NOT

[Squirelbutt]

I like how he states he fought for the freedom of a people half a world away. What kind of bullshit is that people fight for their own freedom it isnt our job to do that for them. Its not worth our blood.

Josh Hardt was my friend and I played football with him... He even got me my first touchdown out of 10 years of playing football. I wish I could have talked to him one last time. There would be so much to say.... Love you man... RIP.

The risk of losing one's life in a military or otherwise dangerous situation is ever present in a troop's life or anyone's life. Doing anything as a soldier, I don't understand how one can't consider that, in any operation, a troop's life would likely be put in danger. I don't ask that one attempt to be clairvoyant, but don't expect every human being on earth or in the country you serve to be fully sympathetic and worship the dead for their acts. Personally, I don't feel what we have is worth it

Unocal started the pipeline -

yes we do because 24 years ago when I signed up i could see the furture and knew one days some Deserter from his duty was going to become president and send us to war with the wrong country and ignore the country that attacked us....yep you sure do know us dumb fucking "troops" so well...we sure did know we were going to fight in the gulf and have our bodies blown to bits by IEDs ...you sure do know us troops...

Did this repub just insult every soldier throughout history by saying these current soldiers in that battle hes talking about faught harder then any soldier to date?

Such hyperbole is unnecessary and denegrating to all.

Plus, what, is this the only repub who didnt support the afghan war or the Iraq war in the last 8 years?

Its hard to trust any of them that stayed in that party and supported it for so long and now that Obama is in office are against war.

[kryl88]

The troops know the risks when they sign up. As much as it sucks that people are dying in such a violent way, I don't let this bullshit talking point from this old-punk sway me on anything about "freedom". If I'm free, bitch, then give me enough freedom to do whatever the hell I want short of hurting another human being.

[mynameisbobtoo]

can't stand the fucking GOP, it's time to wave a dead soldier and talk about freedom, so people don't ask why the troops are stationed along lines that make no sense to soldier but make great sense for the engineers that want to run a pipe line down to the sea.

Dont put troops on the high ground where it makes tactical sense but in the valley where gravity can help move oil. Not where the weapons are comming in but where the terrain is good for gas lines....Yep wave another dead kid for oil

RIP Josh Hardt

[Garlannd]

Did you hear what the military said about that base they put at the bottom of the ravine?

It was to draw enemy fire. They were willing to sacrifice troops to draw enemy fire at that point.

Good tok now they treat our men and women like meat bags to be shot at.

Unocal was sold a long time ago look towards BP for this one
