UW,
I have all the respect for you in the world. How would you like to be in the army today, with the war on the cheap leading to the excesses we have seen this week. Subcontractors and unattended MP units. In a very weird way this is worse than Mai Lai. In Mai Lai a batallion went nuts because of the horrors of that war. Here a couple of weekend warrior teeny bopper MPs answerable to military intelligence contractors went teenage. Can you imagine doing those things and then taking pictures. The inmates are running the asylum. By the way who appointed that first saddam general in falujah before they found out he was a big baath guy?
Bush admin should go down for this but the only thing that saves him is Kerry. If bush wants to win, he can keep quiet and win a squeaker and be held in more contempt than he is now by the left or he can take charge of his presidency and replace Don Rumsfeld with John McCain for a starter.
Iraq is the key battlefield in the WOT. We agree on so much Mike. Lincoln hired Grant at a very dark time in a similar situation. Can Bush be Lincoln or is he really the cheney puppet the dems say he is? Look at this without the ideological glasses on Mike and you will begin to see what i am seeing. And i dont like it. Come august when there are 1200 american dead, bush may be forced to pull out to win the election or send in troops we probably cant spare. Mike
