"And I simply don't understand why you make comments like "as long as uncle is in charge..." Are you meaning unclewest, or Uncle Sam? Or what?"

Of course i meant Uncle Sam but now that you mention it we might want to dress Mike up on the 4th. JUST kidding.

"The Iraqi government already knows we will be there until they are ready to protect their own country. Are you suggesting you think they are ready to protect themselves yet? "

Of course not but they better be ready in a year. It is ridiculous for them to think that we will stay until they are ready particularly if they find it easier in that regimen never to be ready. Thats why the timeline serves as a wake up call for them.

"We are damned lucky we have people like unclewest who have given of themselves so that the rest of us can sit here and type about our views of freedom...."

I have always said this about Mike. Ask him. Its like in the movie A few good men. We always need those nicholson types defending us against the barbarians at the gates. No doubt. But that does not mean he/they are always right. And after all, he is a civilian now and just another voice out there. Hell it aint the word of God;just another opinion to be considered. And again i think Mike will agree with me on that even we disagree on most everything else. Also MIke is thick skinned and he can take what i throw at him as i can handle what i get back which often seems to be as twice what i give him. Mike
