[Spock]

If you are off dreaming in commie left wing land....Everything else seems right wing extremist.

It's the mantra dujour from uncle sam. Terrorist = Veteran.

Now if you'll pardon me, I'm going to go and commit some serious thought crime.....on the throne.

Unfortunately, she's got that nerdy hot thing going on too.

Combat PTSD has gotten a lot more attention from the media as a result of recent conflicts. Naturally, people will develop stereotypes of what they think it entails, of what they think someone with PTSD would be like.

She's not worldly. She's not well-educated. She may be well-read in leftist propaganda written by liberals who have no clue of what things are really like on the other side, but that does not make her an authority on war and politics.

You can't become well-educated by sitting in classrooms and listening to insular people drone on and on about their opinions. You can't become well-educated by reading the biased material they assign for you. I had the post-9/11 G.I. Bill, and I still regret actually paying out of pocket to finish up my degree. What a waste of money. I learned nothing useful in college and I went to a top tier university.

Holy cow!? Her soapbox needs to be taken out from underneath her. If anything the USG is responsible for 'creating' terrorist groups. The media tells us to whom we waive our fists at. Wow this is some serious BS. Gosh. I'm speechless

Sounds like a perfect candidate for the American Enterprise Institute. Next time we throw a war, need to pull a Pol Pot and send her first.

I think we read less about her and more about the source: the Tea Party.

Ms. Kathleen Belew is an "a postdoctoral fellow in history at Northwestern University, is at work on a book on Vietnam veterans and the radical right." She is also a "Mellon Postdoctoral Fellow in History, is also a Postdoctoral Fellow at the Rutgers Center for Historical Analysis. She received her Ph.D from Yale University for 'Theaters of War: Paramilitarism, Mercenaries, and the Racist Right from Vietnam to Oklahoma City.' While at Rutgers she will be teaching history courses, including the 'Aftermath of the Vietnam War' and 'The American Vigilante.'"


Why all this waffle? My shortened version:

Belew is a c*nt

Perception is belief. You can quote me on that.

What I mean here in reference to this ......person is that she believe the rhetoric which she spouts. Those of her ilk do the same.

Hindsight being 20/20 it's easy to look at a time and talk and think about it in a way that's different than it was for those who lived through it.

You just can't fix stupid, even educated stupid.

...You just can't fix stupid, even educated stupid.
