Thing of it is the towels WILL HURT our kids and kill at will if we allow them to do so. I am not a radical nothing, just a retired ole investigator that keeps up with the news and has an opinion, of which I will sherk from no one and give it. We need to get the painty waisted liberal reporters out of the zone and give our boys a free hand to take care of business. We are coming off as a very soft nation, and they are useing our own political correctness and law against us , some have manipulated our own compassion for others rights, against us. Our nation is still the greatest in the world, but really folks, but how long.. I approve what our Commander and Chief has done and will stand behind his decisions. I have not heard one thing from obamma nor clinton saying how to fix what. They don't have a clue. Myself, I wish the pres would envoke the War Powers Act until the war is over and we are safe again, or at least a bit "safer"
at least.
You guys and ladies take care, I'm off my soap box for a spell.
You are one scary dude, old warrior. You are flat out saying that you want to give up your freedom - turn it over voluntarily because of what? FEAR?
I am glad that most of our fellow Americans seem to be made of sterner stuff. Cowardice should never be the driving force in our national policy.
You say that you support Bush - but you don't, not really. You do not support the impossible mission that he created for our troops.
Bush's goal is to create an America/Israel friendly Iraqi democracy - remember winning the hearts and minds?. You want the troops turned to loose to kill anything that looks like it might oppose them. Sadly, the two goals are not supportive of each other.
Me, I want our kids out of the butcher's shop. Let the Iraqis kill each other to their hearts' content. It is not our fight and never has been. Bush abandoned our fight when he pulled nearly all of our troops out of Afghanistan and left Bin Laden and his bunch to die of old age.
And that is my opinion - which I will also not shirk from giving.
