I think we used 70% of our navies guided warheads during shock and awe. Ofcourse the stockpile has to have been replenished but just goes to show how much we really got.unnamednewbie13 wrote:

You cannot win a war solely through air superiority. Carpet bombing is effective but only in the long term. Look at WW2 where the deadly daylight raids proved to have a minimum impact on Germany's warfighting capabilities. Same goes for vietnam. You cant sustain conventional military operation without the majority of your forces being boots on the ground.
Am I the only one that realizes this is a joke?

Sorry to call you a moron , It just seemed like I had to type a book in here to prove my point and frankly I wasn't in the mood. But just look at how the standard of living for americans trying to live the american dream has fallen and continues to do so.
Of course! Tanks'n'troops for the win. Patton would slap you on the back for saying such, and so would I. But we do have the capacity to pound cities into rubble, spread the debris out, and direct a river over the remains in good old Mongol fashion. Oh, and to wipe out entire populations...yet we don't.GunSlinger OIF II wrote:

With that logic, WW2 must have been a lost cause since our soldiers were fighting everyday. The point is ( and you know it ) that America and her civilians have not been attacked thanks to the efforts overseas.cpt.fass1 wrote:

then again, his GF may live in NYC but he in Texas. I just find it hard to believe that he runs a small town, but never mentions it until I call him out. Ok though, I will believe, for Agent Scully.Horseman 77 wrote:

It was more my point that the Campaigns were so Low down and dirty, Mud Slinging, Threats Etc. They kept referring to my sister as a "Failed actress " Because she had been a model actress before she Went back to School. I mean WTF ?
Besides I. Ran my own business From 88 to 95 I had 6 full time and 16 part time employees. That aint to shabby.

Nope, America isn't perfect. It is, however, striving to be everything to everyone, with both ends of the political spectrum represented. How many other countries can claim that?ghettoperson wrote:

Then you must not really read my posts.
I believe you skim it to see if It is merely pro or Con to What someone who calls himself a "Getto person " wants to hear.
The USA is not perfect but I will not be Spoken down to, Preached to or Chided by the Continent that Plunged the World into Global War on With their Assumed forward thinking and Higher Level of morals and intellect.
The Continent Who gave us Death Camps, Genocide, Ethnic Cleansing, Gulags etc.
Converse with, Debate but not " Spoken down to, Preached to, or Chided " You get it now ?
Your post was condescending in tone.
I never insult. But I will counter an insult with a Harsher tone. It is my experience that those who insult can usually be laid low easily by carefully inspecting what they have written and using their very own words.
Do you get me?
