My message

Dear Mike,

Fuck you.  Since I am less articulate than Captain Ed, I’ll let his entry here be my response to the inanity in your latest message.

First, can we stop the Orwellian language and start using the proper names for things? Those are not �contractors� in Iraq. They are not there to fix a roof or to pour concrete in a driveway. They are MERCENARIES and SOLDIERS OF FORTUNE. They are there for the money, and the money is very good if you live long enough to spend it.

If I were a soldier or a contractor in Iraq, or the family of said personnel, I might be tempted to track you down and beat your ass for what you said.  You are a shameless, pandering user and you should be shunned by all, be they on the right or the left.

You disgust me,

Jim K.
