the navel academy is one of the best schools in the nation. this has been argued here before, and it stands, all of the military academies are top-notch compared to every other school on earth. they are hard to get into and provide a great indoctrination.
Fixed.

That's stupid.
You think they breed open-minded free-thinking young men in military schools?

:laugh: Please don't be that naive.

how many military school graduates do you know? how many of the campuses have you been to?

Clearly the military schools breed soldiers. That's why they are called "military schools". However to deny the quality of the education, THAT is what's naive, and THAT'S what I was saying was stupid.

I really think some of you don't even think before you post here. This thread is full of that from both sides.

edit: and I hope the US Navel Academy is not producing hippies. Hippies don't make very good soldiers, now do they?

You really, really hate the US military for some reason. Fortunately both candidates are promising to expand it to it's largest level ever.

That isn't very hard to accomplish. I care more about what the candidates may/may not use the military for.

Heck, they can double the size of the military for all I care (your children will be paying for it anyway, with interest). As long as all those boots and tanks stay planted on bases, that's fine.

I believe that someone like McCain, who actually knows what war is, will be less likely to happily march our asses into other countries.

Really?

You think the guy who suffered in a POW camp for that long is going to rush to put young men in the same place he was?

O Rly? The same McCain was going to have us follow bin Laden to the "gates of hell", we're going to "bomb bomb Iran", and "we're all Georgians today" so we're going to get back at Russia and kick them out of the G8, generally piss in their face and start Cold War II?

wow, now I do feel all fuzzy and warm inside
 
Someone want to remind me of how many democrate presidents over say the last hundred years or so haven't been involved in significant military action.
 
"Is McCain Anything But Another War President?"

He's basically a continuation of Bush: preemptive war to defend ourselves, torture, loss of rights for and spying on American citizens. Continued tax breaks for the ultra wealthy and multi-national corporations, breaking unions, favors for the agenda of far right evangelicals, etc.
