Perhaps some would consider patting your FEMA director on the back and telling him he's doing a "heckuva job" while people lay dying in a major city in this country due to complete incompetence.
We all have different opinions of low brow.

That argument would work great if we had a draft, but we don't. Im purty sure we are still under a volunteer army currently. There is no big secret that someone signing up to be a solider could end up fighting in a war. I thought you were above strawman arguments. Then you throw in about people that were injured in the war being in rat invested buildings. Is that really really the majority of the cases for vets recovering from injuries, or the minority? Come come.. Tisk tisk.
This falls into line with people that use "half truths" to magnify an issue. Mountain out of a mole hill.. you pick your own cliche.
