The insurgency is at peak levels! I suppose it’s a good time to pull the troops since elections are right around the corner and the publics will to carry on is waining.[/quote]

Zeppelin,

You didn’t click the link, so you didn’t get the joke.

I have lived in Heidelberg, Germany for the past five years and hope to stay here longer. Being both an American and a Soldier I have no idea where people are getting this “anti-american” nonsense from.

Maybe the German’s you hear about that hate us is because some young stupid kids come over fresh from the farm, never been away from Mommie, and decide to tear the country side up and have no damn respect for the German people, country and culture. Wouldn’t you want people like that out of your country?

The US is turning over bases to the German Government and re-locating troops back to the US. Many reasons for this that can’t be discussed here. Suffice to say that we will continue to maintain a sizable force here in Europe. We just don’t need as many troops and bases here that we currently have. What we do need is to modernize the main bases we have (Ramstein for example) so we can have on one base what we used to have on three.

The current agenda for the Army is to stream line units and make them more modular. Our current structure isn’t what we need any more. A lighter more agile force, capable of deploying to any location to whip the shit out of someone at a moments notice is the end state.

And for the record, we don’t fucking withdraw from anywhere! We may downsize, we may re-locate, we may even pack our bags and go home…but we never withdraw.

Just want to punctuate something drilldaddy said. Europeans don’t hate us. Like anybody else, treat them with respect and they respond in kind. Based on my time there (as a civilian) I think that, on balance, our military personnel are far better ambassadors of goodwill than the legions of swaggering loud-talking tourists who stride through Europe like they own the joint.

hm,…

I’am a german…
I do not hate the USA…

But if you want to know why some germans do, you just have to re-read rainjacks posts.
Quite arrogant.

So I’m the reason the Germany has issues with the U.S.?

I’d like to thank the Academy for allowing me to accept this title. I’d also like to thank the narrow-minded ungrateful Germans that have banded together to bestow this honor on me.

God Bless the USA!!!

woah, you can use irony, very impressive.

Your arrogance is a god example for what some people tend to think about the US-citizens.
You spoke bad about our women, I’ve never ever heart somebody in germany saying anything similar about the US-women…
God bless the whole world!!!

Lighten up dude. Besides if your women would shave their pits - well…world peace could be attainable.

Proof? Sure, just read a half dozen or so of your posts. Oh, but I’m just a gutless little pussy, just like those narrow minded Germans, et al.

No - you are a gutless pussy because you fail to back up your accusations with any proof. I know full well everything I wrote - I was there. I have asked YOU to PROVE that I am a biggot.

But it’s much easier for you to just run your mouth than to actually prove your point.
And that makes you a gutless pussy - not like the narrow minded Germans - but like the piece of shit that you are.

“At least their “pits” are not hidden under loads of fat, like the pits of the US-women…right?”
There are enough stereotypes about US-women to return your politness.

Let’s see we have the boy who cried hate and now the girl who cried proof. Rainwoman, you are truly hysterical and unfortunately living proof that birth control is a very wise choice for some.

Yeah we have a bunch of fat chicks here. But you know what? That doesn’t make me resent Germany because you said that.

If you have such an inferiority complex about your country - maybe this isn’t the best place for you to be. Because I can pretty much guarantee you that I will be here.

Rainjack: I just selected a few highlights from some of your recent posts (see below). But, I had to stop, I was getting ill (oh yeah, I’m just another one of those pussies):

?As things sit now, i.e. the Democratic Party in total disarray, I think the Republicans could go to any zoo in the U.S. and pick out a chimp and win in 2008.?

?But who are Republicans going to run in '08? That’s the connundrum:

Arlan Spector

Bite your tongue. If the Republicans run that waste of DNA as thier guy, I’m voting Green Party.?

?Even so, unless the Republicans are just whoring for the center/slightly left of center vote, there is no reason at all to allow McCain a spot on the ticket.

He is not a Republican. He is not a conservative. I would never vote for him by himself.?

?And to have Spector in your corner is like having Gin-Nosed Ted campaigning for you.?

?We have an objective in the GWOT - it is not to make every goddamn bead wearing peacnik happy.?

?Why not just shut the hell up? Why does ProfX, 100M, or your boy-toy vroom need to bail your big mouth out of a jam when you won’t even make an attempt??

I really like Arlan Spector being a waste of DNA, “Gin-Nosed Ted”, “goddamn bead wearing peacnik” and “boy-toy vroom”

Webster’s defines a bigot as “one obstinately or intolerantly devoted to his own opinions and prejudices”.

I’d say you hit that ball out of the park.

Now, please go ahead and tell me how much of a vile piece of scum I am, so you can prove my point even more.

I do not care, I think I’m continuing to visit this site, you know why?
Most people here think before they post, you don’t.
Maybe you need to compensate your inferiority-complex with the “superiority” of your country…tkink about it.

Nope -

I’ve got to hand it to you kenmen. You stepped up and used two entire posts out of over 3000 to prove that I am in fact a bigot.

You are not a pussy. Nor are you a piece of shit. In fact I did prejudge you and put you in a class with other posters on this site that will call me names and then hide when asked to prove it.

I won’t apologize for my opinions. I don’t think they carry the weight that you have assigned to them.

But I do apologize to you. You are at least a man willing to back up his shit with something more than more name calling.

That makes two of us that don’t care. And no - most people don’t think before they post. Look at elk. A total blathering, estrogen filled idiot. He’s on your side. But I guess that’s the difference, huh?

You just happen to disagreee with what I say. That’s fine and dandy. But honesty would smell a lot better on you than than what your wearing now

Nice rainster, a little switch up there, boy you are versatile! This post translated: Elk’s not a man, he’s a pussy, a piece of shit, a name caller. That’s predictable if not slightly different, but this is the part that is baffling… are you admitting you are a bigot? That in and of itself is worthy of the highest praise and I salute you for that realization.

Cheers

“Lighten up dude. Besides if your women would shave their pits - well…world peace could be attainable.”

I’m not jumping on the bandwagon dude, but, while yes there are very few women that don’t shave the pits over here, 98% do. I have to honestly say that European women are some the finest I have ever seen. The fact that they aren’t hung up on societies (US) views of sexuality and nudity makes them even more attractive.
