A US soldier goes against the grain and vents his frustration at the black and white indoctrination of American youth.

Might have been more credible if the author didn't use words like "loosely affiliated regional insurgencies", "reapportioned" and "endemic mismanagement" when communicating with a 1st grader.

Perhaps he had a poor understanding of the nuances of appropriately applied vocabulary.

Heaven forbid, he might actually have asperger's.

I was not familar with the source material, but nonetheless the OP raises serious issues in an amusing way that need stated.

That being said, as you are familar with the duffelblog it begs the question why you are having a dig at the use of extensive vocabulary therein.

We all make mistakes, but this is the second time this week you've posted a source without checking its credibility. Was "The American Military's Most Trusted News Source" not a give away? Or the articles in the sidebar? (Highlight: http://www.duffelblog.com/2013/12/leake ... s-parties/)

However, this is very funny.
