Quote:Or those people who say "I FOUGHT FOR THIS COUNTRY I SHOULD BE ABLE TO DICTATE HOW PEOPLE USE THOSE FREEDOMS I GAVE THEM". Yes I hear many say this who have served in the armed forces.
Neither of those two things sound remotely patriotic. That's not america, that's not how we do shit. I think that the rightwing strategy of branding themselves as the party of patriotism was brilliant..but.....if anyone still believed they were before today..it;s hard to see how anyone could legitimately maintain that belief now.
Their response to the russian president of the united states has been to shrug and talk shit about americans......
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
