Fox News watchers are renowned for their ability to male cheerlead a war while someone else does the fighting.

Question

Is this for the best? If they were to actually join the army, they would be a liability to the rest of the GIs, right? While their unit was taking enemy fire and trying to keep their heads down, those natural male cheerleaders would feel the urge to stand up, start jumping up and down shaking their pom-poms, and chant "Go team! Go team!" They would give away their unit's position and get everyone killed.

So in the end, it's good that they have an extreme fear of the military recruiter and never enlist, right?

Answer 1

something like that...

Answer 2

Do you know that the US military watches Fox in Iraq? Fox and Friends won an ward from the Military for their morning show. I happen to like Fox and I'm a vet.

Answer 3

So are you making the argument that any single person that supports our troops, supports the mission, or supports our commander in chief is unfit to do so unless they have been on the ground fighting in Iraq?

How about we set the standard that any liberal media drone such as yourself are not allowed oppose the war unless youve fought in it?

So I got a Q, if we the conservatives are cheering the troops on, what you are your anti-war buddies doing? Cheering against them?! Rooting for failure because you know if we fail in Iraq, then it makes it look bad for Bush?!

I find your argument juvenile, unamerican, and hypocritical, and typical of what liberals have to offer in the arena of ideas.

Answer 4

the military is NOT for everyone my friend... just because it's not for me does not mean that if a draft was instituted i wouldn't be the FIRST in line to serve my country. just because i don't join a VOLUNTEER force, doen not mean i can't be patriotic OR have an opinion on the war. that's one of the things our military force fights for... so that people like you AND i can openly talk about issues like this. you need to re-think your logic.

Answer 5

I was a cheerleader in middle school. So of behalf of all cheerleaders, I am offended to be compared to those creeps at Fox News.

Answer 6

you could listen to a 14 year old that doesn't even know how to spell military

or you could voice your opinion and try to persuede those that profit from this war to get us out


or do as these have done

Answer 7

I used to be a FOX viewer. But O'Rielly kept changing his views. And I could never get him to read my e-mails.
So now I watch Lou Dobbs.

Answer 8

Are you the same clown that thinks Fox News makes people think they were in a war and died?

Love how the liberals are so tolerant of a viewpoint other than their own.

Answer 9

I'm an FNC watcher and I'm 14 years old. HOW THE **** COULD I JOIN THE MILLITARY AT 14? And when I get out of high school, I am IMMEDIATELY enlisting in the Army or Marines. Put that up your ******* pipe and smoke it.

Shouldn't we all stand beside our brothers and sisters in arms even if we can't or choose not to? Not standing beside them is so un-american, and basically makes you a traitor, and in this case you are almost defecting to the side that blew up the WTC and hit the Pentagon on 9.11.01.

Answer 10

You need to seek mental help. Remember to stay off the crack. Crack is wack.

Answer 11

So by your logic, anyone who supports the war, couldn't possibly fight in the war? Or, as so many trolls in the past have put it, if we support it how come we aren't fighting in it? I supported WWII and didn't fight, I supported the original Iraq conflict and didn't fight in it. As far as I know military is still by volunteer, no one is forced to join or is there a draft I'm not aware of? If my country calls on me to serve I would do my duty... but I'm not in the military. Your argument is lame and reveals you to be a simple minded, obtuse person. Logic just doesn't jibe with your line of thinking.
