Rudyard Kipling"
“When you're left wounded on Afganistan's plains and
the women come out to cut up what remains, Just roll to your rifle
and blow out your brains,
And go to your God like a soldier”
General Douglas MacArthur"
“We are not retreating. We are advancing in another direction.”
“It is fatal to enter any war without the will to win it.” “Old soldiers never die; they just fade away.
“The soldier, above all other people, prays for peace, for he must suffer and be the deepest wounds and scars of war.”
“May God have mercy upon my enemies, because I won't .” “The object of war is not to die for your country but to make the other bastard die for his.
“Nobody ever defended, there is only attack and attack and attack some more.
“It is foolish and wrong to mourn the men who died. Rather we should thank God that such men lived.
The Soldier stood and faced God
Which must always come to pass
He hoped his shoes were shining
Just as bright as his brass
"Step forward you Soldier,
How shall I deal with you?
Have you always turned the other cheek?
To My Church have you been true?"
"No, Lord, I guess I ain't
Because those of us who carry guns
Can't always be a saint."
I've had to work on Sundays
And at times my talk was tough,
And sometimes I've been violent,
Because the world is awfully rough.
But, I never took a penny
That wasn't mine to keep.
Though I worked a lot of overtime
When the bills got just too steep,
The Soldier squared his shoulders and said
And I never passed a cry for help
Though at times I shook with fear,
And sometimes, God forgive me,
I've wept unmanly tears.
I know I don't deserve a place
Among the people here.
They never wanted me around
Except to calm their fears.
If you've a place for me here,
Lord, It needn't be so grand,
I never expected or had too much,
But if you don't, I'll understand."
There was silence all around the throne
Where the saints had often trod
As the Soldier waited quietly,
For the judgment of his God.
"Step forward now, you Soldier,
You've borne your burden well.
Walk peacefully on Heaven's streets,
You've done your time in Hell."
Republican presidential candidates Chris Christie, Ron DeSantis, Nikki Haley, Vivek Ramaswamy and Tim Scott faced off on questions regarding foreign policy, the economy, abortion and former President Donald Trump. Ramaswamy is right if Tucker Carlson, Elon Musk and Joe Rogan moderated GOP debate people would actually have been interested in this debate
Vivek Ramaswamy...super articulate , and intelligent..The Next VP. Vivek made great point and they didn't even deny their complicity in interfering in the 2020 election. Nikki mentioned Vivek using Tik Tok and got mad that he mentioned her daughter using it. He made a perfect point! It’s like being ProLife and supporting her daughter with ProChoice. In what way is this a debate. The mediators put an extreme emphasis on limiting what the candidates could speak on and basically limited any interaction with one another as much as they could. Vivek was spot on in his opening statement.
Vivek Ramaswamy is the only candidate on that stage that is 1000% correct in everything he said. I especially like how he called out the moderator for not having diverse other moderators ie,Tucker Carlson, Elon Musk etc who would ask the questions important to all Americans. He nailed it...NEXT!!!!!
