Trolls are so much *fun* aren't they? At least your trolls have enough functioning brain cells to admit when they've been bested. Sadly, mine have always been the persistent, beat-it-into-the-ground, post-it-everywhere and involve-as-many-people-as-possible-even-though-it-isn't-their-battle types. Fucking retards.

Well Done & Said!

As I understand it, Ratzinger was not the Cardinals first choice. That
was, interestingly, Cardinal Hans Grapje.
Grapje was raised in a Catholic school in The Hague and, as a young
man, aspired to become a priest, but was drafted into the Army during
WWII and spent two years co-piloting B17s until his aircraft was shot
down in 1943 and he lost his left arm. Captain Grapje spent the rest of
the war as a chaplain, giving spiritual aid to soldiers, both Allied
and
enemy.

After the war, he became a priest, serving as a missionary in Africa,
piloting his own plane (in spite of his handicap) to villages across
the
continent. In 1997, Father Grapje was serving in Zimbabwe when an
explosion in a silver mine caused a cave-in. Archbishop Grapje went
down
into the mine to administer last rites to those too severely injured to
move. Another shaft collapsed, and he was buried for three days,
suffering multiple injuries, including the loss of his right eye. The
high silver content in the mine's air gave him purpura, a life-long
condition characterized by purplish skin blotches.

Although Cardinal Grapje devoted his life to the service of God as a
scholar, mentor, and holyman, church leaders felt that he should never
ascend to the Papacy.

They felt that the Church would never accept a one-eyed, one-armed,
flying purple Papal leader.

Dan, you're going to hell.

You take things too literally-and thats a sin.

Lmfao

Reading what Dan had to say, it looks as if he is the Forest Gump of the military. He has been at every major military operation since he joined. I guess when we attack Iran, he will be there. Then when we knock off North Korea, he will be there. Run Dan Run!!!

Hey, I want a coffee cup like she has!

I think you have me confused with the SSG. I've been all over the Pacific Ocean Areas, but never anywhere near Iraq, Afghanistan or even Europe.

But I do like a box of chocalates from time to time.

:)

Something tells me that the troll in question had a Section 8 and the reason he's screeching in all-caps is because he can only do so much typing with his nose:

"FUCK ALL YOU JOHN MCCAIN HATERS HE IS MY GOD I LOVE THE TASTE OF HIS KISSES DAMN THIS STRAIGHT JACKET IS TIGHT..."

Heh. He's a legend in his own mind. ;-)

I apoligize for breaking your precious rules.I also apoligize for threatening to "brass knuckle yer fucking face".However some of the comments you people said about Sen. McCain were pretty rotten, mean spirited and uncalled for.It got me pretty fucking heated.Yesterday after the Division Review they let us off early and I proceeded to have a few 40's of beer.I usually enjoy most of the stuff on this site. I just got pissed yesterday thats all...No hard feelings. I do enjoy a good old fashioned American argument.Maybe the Senator is not the best man for the job but thats no reason to talk shit about his war record especially if you have never been there.Till next time muslim=terrorist, punk rock is the greatest,Lets Go Mets.

Have a RAKKASAN day!

SSG Wallach:

I've never been there. However, I will talk smack about McCain. Do I respect him for his efforts in uniform? Do I respect him for his imprisionment/torture as a POW? Hell. Yes.

Do I respect him now that he's a US Senator, shredding the Constitution that he, at multiple occasions, swore to defend? No.

Will I excuse him for being a publicity hound, for putting his political success above his sworn oath, above the good of the country? Hell. No.

If McCain leaves the Senate, and becomes a speaker on war, I'll listen. If he stays in the Senate, continues to trash the Constitution (He's wiped with the 1st Amendment, he doesn't care about the 2nd, the 4th is a nuisance.. should I continue?), then I, at least, will speak out, and call him for his delusions.

Whether someone should point out the other situations around his capture/imprisionment - well, that's a harder call. I personally wouldn't. However, I'll note I'm aware of them, and without SOMEONE researching and reporting, I wouldn't have been.

Wow you know how to cut and past you passed Winders 101. Now try to use the thingy with all the letters on it and write something original.

Uh...no, I'm showing that the dumbass is emailing me. 'preciate you being a dick n' all though.

I e-mailed you yesterday.I am willing to let this go as I stated earlier moron.
Have a RAKKASAN day!

Thanks for clarifying Josh. I wondered about that comnment also.

Rakkasans... interesting. Anyone interested in looking up SSG Dave's CO and asking him if threatening civilians via Internet is conduct he expects of his NCO's?

Wow, this guy still continues to behave like a Section 8 patient. Threatening civilians? How very...Liberal.

Reminds me of a stray human my parents took under their wing once, buying into his "Vietnam Vet--Will Work For Food" sign. He looked the part, scruffy and grey of beard and hair, nicknamed "Wolf". He regaled us with grandiose stories about his exploits in 'Nam. Meanwhile, all he did was lay around on the couch and drink like a fish and behave like a complete fuckstick. Then his roots started to show. Mom found his driver's license. If he'd actually been in 'Nam, he would have had to put up a convincing lie on his enlistment papers--because he would have been all of EIGHT YEARS OLD. But he could sure spin hisself some 'Nam stories, he could.

Many years later, I'd be reminded of "Wolf" when the Kooky Ketchup King regaled us with his...ahem, "glorious" exploits in Vietnam. (Or was it Cambodia? I forgot, and apparently so did Johnny Ketchup...) Anyways, this SSG Wallach dude reminds me of "Wolf" as well. ANYONE can spin a good yarn. And the way Wallach is acting, he comes off as a trollish parody of an American warrior--and a bad example of one at that. Paint me a cynical skeptic.
