I suppose it was inevitable that some left-wing socialist would try and play the race card to obscure the issue. It matters not whether POTUS is black, white, yellow, pink or whatever, it is not un-american to to oppose someone bent on destroying the country. Some of the folks Dempsey commented on happen to be black too.

I am consistently stunned by the conspiratorial nonsense spouted by those on the right wing of this country's political spectrum.

For what little cheer it may afford him, I'm with SASless. The services are getting increasingly politicised and I think everyone is against that as it is contrary to our military ethos.

SAS... your letter in the o.p. is far too long, slightly self serving and not properly focussed on your main point.

Your subsequent posts on this thread don't seem to make sense and also seem to be pointless.

Just get a grip and stop showing off!

SOSL, I suspect Rob Cooper cares a bit more about America than you do, given his locale and yours. (in the area under the name).

Whether or not his estimation of the president's aims is closer or further from the truth is a matter of opinion.

Most of us conservative veterans over here see a real problem with the policies of the current Administration. You folks over there are not seeing the day to day violations of our constitution. We the People want to see our government return to the principles of that constitution. The elections this November are going to be the most significant this century for America. I am a patriot and am prepared to go on the line if necessary.

SOSL is no troll; read his other posts.

The majority commenting here as Stateside and clearly hold strong beliefs in what they say. On our side of the pond I don't think any of us have expressed a view on the topic but on the way in which SASless has chosen to express his view.

We all favour the single rapier thrust rather than the slashing sabre. That probably says as much about our psychic as yours, but we all clearly support you SASLess.

P-N , clearly we all don't if you read the thread. I for one don't.

The Dutch?

Well, the Dutch seemed to have done o.k. with a politised military. The most mercenary bunch of trade union sea lawyers I have ever met in my life are. 1) RN 2) RAF.
No, I am not ex Army.

TTN & PN

I don't think I support the view SASLess is making; but I'm not sure, because his letter is kinda difficult to follow. Too many digressions and too much vitriol never helps. Better plan is a short letter, to the point and maybe a touch of sarcasm if you really want to get it off your chest.

Where did the spirit of compromise go in the USA - they all seem to take extreme positions at the drop of a hat

when someone says they are willing "to go on the line if necessary" we are a very short step away from the Oklahoma City bombers and their ilk

Abbi from NCIS

I've just re-skim-read this thread.

CG - # 11 ... I'd rather have Abbi's autograph - Beagle has Susan Hampshire in his heart; I have Abbi from NCIS!!

A libellous assertion, SOSL! Susan Hampshire indeed - she who played 'Fleur' in The Forsyte Saga....

However, I do most certainly have a soft spot for the late Susannah YORK:

Mea culpa, Beags. How could I have got it so wrong? Still it seems to have brightened up Duncans day.

What about the other picture of Susannah... you know the one I mean.
