I understand what you are saying. I would say that if anybody has a right to make a political point is our troops.
It is rather idealistic. It captures the warrior spirit that drives many of us veterans and current troops to do what we do, and did. Being idealistic is not really a bad thing. |

Idealist is defined as:
1. a person who cherishes or pursues high or noble principles, purposes, goals, etc. Synonyms: optimist, perfectionist, reformer, visionary, utopianist. Antonyms: pragmatist, skeptic, cynic. 2. a visionary or impractical person. Synonyms: romantic, romanticist, dreamer, stargazer. Antonyms: realist, materialist. 3. a person who represents things as they might or should be rather than as they are: My friend is an idealist, who somehow thinks that we always agree. 4. a writer or artist who treats subjects imaginatively. 5. a person who accepts the doctrines of philosophical idealism, as by representing things in an ideal form, or as they might or should be rather than as they are. http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/idealist It depends on which definition we are talking about. I would say that definitions 1 and 3 fit Him well. I do not think 2 and 5 fit Him at all. He had a firm understanding of reality and He was not unrealistic. A case could be made in favor of definition 4. His use of parables and word pictures shows Him to be imaginative. I wouldn't die on that hill. |

LOL OK, Poncho, how do you expect me to answer the "they" question based on the conspiracy theory you are currently embracing?
