Too bad for Canada in my opinion

It’s sad to see that our Northern neighbors making a hard Right turn with the majority government given to Stephen Harper, they’ll be sorry in the long run and yesterday he made another move to appease the candy-asses in their military. I feel no sympathy for an officer corps that whines over uniforms and names. They forgetting who they serve, the people of the nation footing the bill…not themselves unless they represent a banana republic. So much for the Tories’ claims about saving money. This proves they’re just the Republicans of the Great White North…billions for military toys, parades and chest puffing yet nothing for their country really needs.

America has always had the same problem, especially when I’ve spoken to vets who became officers through OCS. The academy graduates have this loathing and seething dislike of “outsiders.” They probably see these fellow soldiers as meddlesome “civilians.”
