What is the resoning behind talk and not action?

The soldiers give their lives to save the children from Having their lives bieng ruined by unrealistic individuals and yet people who dont see the truth sit back and talk s*it. What is up with that? The Government in the higher realms are even too affraid to do the real thing( just talk) talk is safe but if ya cant run with the big dog's then stay home and shut up. Not meant as an insult. Pssht, and the higher ups are protected by the lower so there is no real threat, unless they are willing to get right in there and support their soldiers instead of running?Put down the paperwork and put on the body armor and run jump and protect with the rest, Ya think?

    There is no justification of reasoning behind that. All talk and no action is meaningless.

    In everything in life, threats & talking only work if there is action sometimes. If you tell a child I will spank you everyday & never spank them, the threat ceases to work. You can say, I will take all your candy & take it & it will work or you can spank them but some action must occur.

    In Iraq, I think it is time for the no holds knock them to the ground & stomp them fight time. Playing nice is not working for me.

    Quitting & coming home beaten - definitely does not work for the mother of a US Army Ranger & proud to be an American woman.

    I am proud of my country & not going to pretend otherwise to be politically correct. I do not care if you are proud of your country or not.

    quote your post

    "The soldiers give their lives to save the children from Having their lives bieng ruined by unrealistic individuals"

    What the hell you talking about?

    And the rest of your post is not much of a revelation.

    The privileged profit from the spilled blood of the less privileged.

    If you are referring to Iraq invasion.

    We didn't go in to save children.

    IRAQ was better off with Saddam Hussein.

    At least they had water, sewage, and electricity.

    Now that we are there they got nothin.

    We need people who can do both. If you have a brilliant strategist who can save many lives, you dont risk his life by placing him in direct combat with the other brave soldiers. Talk and action are both necessary, but one must be careful not to speak hypocritically nor to act with out thinking.

    People tend to talk without knowing what the soldiers are doing. It is very hard for soldiers to fight a war and ther people must just support them rather than criticizing them.

    Democrats are running the show now,based mostly on their criticism of the way the Repubs were running the war...so now you mean they have NO plan to fix what was wrong?..all they could do was yell but not fix?....huh...go figure...

    Talk without action is useless. Action without talk is reckless.

    Frankly, I'd rather err on the side of uselessness.
