Flags are not bullets idiot. If you're going to use an analogy at least make it less stupid. Stay in school.
VN Veteran Columbus, OH	Reply » \| Report Abuse \| Judge it! \| #7 Feb 1, 2011 The governor made a good point, these men and hundreds of thousands of men and women like them had to fight a real enemy and they never did the ‘excessive celebration dance’ of the current class of low class clowns in professional, college, high school and even younger sports programs. The professionals all seem so angry about having to take all that money home for playing a game!

Too many of you haven't heard that, and I, for one, would like to thank you! And I agree with the governor's comments, too.
