14. one of his reasons for voting for the iraq war
Thu Sep 18, 2014, 02:24 PM
Sep 2014

was so his son could 'have his war' just like he did, his dad did and his g. dad did. (WWI WWII and Vietnam)

What is it with fucking stupid republicans who want to put their kids in war? Teddy Roosevelt wasn't content to put his kids in WWI, he put them in the front. Quentin was killed. He was killed by his old man, a pompous fucked up windbag. I don't care what he did or accomplished. He killed his son by 'securing postings for (him) them as close to the front as they could be".

Behold, the Republican mindset.
