You got conned by a bad fiction writer who played to your belief that his portrayal of our soldiers was the real deal. You couldn't even be bothered to pay attention to the folks who were saying, in effect, "I know soldiers well and this is not how they act". This story matters because you believed a lie and ridiculed the folks who smelled something bad in it and went after the truth. And you call me a fool? Sad, sad man. Oh, and who's homosexuality are you going to focus on next? I think it's charming the way you notice that so much. John, you really don't get it.

And you call me a fool? Sad, sad man.

Oh, and who's homosexuality are you going to focus on next? I think it's charming the way you notice that so much.
