Prejudice and stereotyping, we judge each other on the basis of skin color, gender, hair length, attire, age, and other such attributes. We focus on outward appearances instead of the message. All the while our leaders say incredibility stupid things to each other. Meanwhile the vitriolic anger, hate, and rage expressed by Republicans towards any progressive, liberal, or moderate person, idea, or policy initiative, especially if elected, to office, expressed in the “liberal” media, or enacted into law continues unabated. We tag each other on social media, but have no problem killing civilians in other countries. All waged by people who want the meaning of life to be about an overseer who demands obedience and peace. Instead of living life to the fullest, they seem to want to make sure no one else has a full life. Because the same philosophies lead to specific ideologies, man will always want to fight instead of think.
Wonder if some future soldier will find a cure for the devastating medical problem of bone spurs……If anybody has an old copy of “Mad Magazine” handy, read the satire of the movie “Patton.” Poor ol’ Patton is out of sorts with the war over, yet the “worst and dumbest” are already planning for Korea and Vietnam. Why? “George would have wanted it this way!”
Danziger served in the United States Army from 1967 until 1971. An intelligence officer and linguist during the Vietnam War, he was awarded the Bronze Star and Air Medal in 1970.

War is good for the defense contractors, which makes it good for the Republican Congresscritters that they own.
