I think it's a little late to be playing this game don't you? The whole world knows that Bush was told that the whole WMD, yellow-cake story was a lie and he kept right on giving the speeches quoting the previous bad information. It's been all over the mainstream media... 60 Minutes... newspapers... everywhere.


The was never any connection between 911... Bin Laden or any of that stuff and Iraq. Everyone knows that now too. 


Just because we have a volunteer Army doesn't mean that gives our leaders the green light to play loose and fast with the truth. My best friends son Scott is over there right now on his second tour... plus he's done one in Kuwait during this mess. He's an Army Ranger and a Staff Sergeant.


They do their job as ordered. They look out for each other and they try to help the overall situation as best they can. But the regular ground soldier (not the Generals or the lifers looking towards future promotion) but the regular infantry soldier will tell you... It's a Civil War. We're never going to be able to get a real handle on it. We can play Whack A Mole and put down uprisings here and there and try to limit our casualties. That's it. 


They're more than ready to come home but they're such good guys they don't like the idea of leaving their brothers in harms way either. 


They're the ones in the spot. Bush put them there and you'd do them proud by not acting like it's just their job... they volunteered... like it's working at FedEx or something. They're dieing because or president is stuck on stupid  and won't let them redeploy.:mad:
