That's true, but that statement doesn't back up your delusion. This
is the delusion to which I'm referring:

"but we do know he hated the idea of volunteering to join the
military."

Back up your delusion in whatever way you're capable, considering
your current condition.



Did you volunteer to serve in the United States Military? No. You did
not. Not only are you a lying sack of shit, you're a chicken too.
Your mother must be proud. We know how your wife feels.


I actually tried to volunteer for the Air Force, but was denied
because of my eyesight.


They did not take you because you were at the bus station.

I have corrected vision of 20/60 in my right eye, and the Air Force
took me in 1974.


My vision is MUCH worse than that, and I specifically said I was
interested in flying jets.


Your CORRECTED vision is worse than 20/60?

Do you run into walls?


I was told that UNcorrected vision as bad as mine disqualified me from
flying. The reasoning made sense: Glasses damaged & copilot dead? Goodbye
jet. Even a big, slow transport aircraft. No deal. If you don't believe
it, go find an ancient recruiter who remembers these things.

But you said something completely different than that. YOU said your
corrected vision was worse.

You really don't know what you say, do you?

My initial comment was this:

I can see where that could've been written differently. But now that it's
been clarified, are you going to hang onto the original version like a brat
who won't share a toy?

I get it.

I can hang onto the original version like a brat that won't share a toy --
as if that's a bad thing -- but you can hang onto "Oakland Boy" (and an
entire host of other stupid stuff) for weeks on end but that's not at all
like a brat that won't share a toy.

That's called a double standard. It's different when you do it.

Yes. You're right. It's a double standard. The bit about listening to what
you already know - your posts confirm that awful rule with frightening
consistency.

I live at the mouth of the James River and Chesapeake Bay on the
Atlantic Coast of the United States. You know, the place that has the
most intense concentration of military power in the world.

Why did you mention the thing about military power? Does that somehow
enhance your stature in this discussion?
He controls them. And in a completely unrelated matter, whenever he
buys condoms and women can see him, he chooses Magnum XXX Large, but
as soon as they leave he puts them back and gets his usual Pillsbury
Doughboy Tiny Ones.

You called it long before he got in. I had no idea he'd be THIS bad.
Didn't think it possible.

Yes I did. I tried to warn people.

Even Hachi is onboard with the truth about Bambi, now....

LOL! I was about a WEEK after I talked to you! My 'giving him a chance'
lasted about 5 days, after he started pushing the Porkulus package, and
ramming it through Congress before anyone even had a chance to READ it!

I realized about 2 months ago he's in so far over his head, the ONLY place
left to go is UP!
