6. wtf?
God, he's an idiot.

How old is that asshat?

I was a teenager when Red Dawn came out by I'd call myself part of the John Hughes generation before I'd make an references to a Patrick Swayze movie.

7. I had him for a student when I TA'd bio labs at UGA
I really felt sorry for him - he was a little pipsqueak and probably got beat up a lot in grade school.

That quote was published in the Red and Black (UGA newspaper) and sums up his philosophy on political warfare quite well...

Only set in in Iraq instead of Colorado. Replace the Soviets with the US.
