Ann, What branch of the service were you in? Where did you serve? I disagree with your premise, though Kubrek would have agreed in his "Full Metal Jacket," where Joker kills a Vietcong female prisoner. I don't think humanity is something you switch on and off and Conservatives only think that way because they've never switched it on. BTW, the chickenhawks who never served in the military are all Bush appointees. Those of us who served our country know an outrage when we see it and we know it came from the top down, though Bush will scramble to contain the blame at some level below his slimy self.

Nobody is disagreeing about fighting terrorism. Or radical Islam. We're talking about invading a secular country and that country had not sent terrorists to attack us. Meanwhile, radical Islam is having a hoot watching our Keystone Kops shoot the wrong Arabs because they're too dumb to know the difference.

Americans are slowly waking up to the reality behind Bush's good ol' boy facade and I hope they will have eyes wide open by election day. I can't imagine anyone handling a war worse than Bush has, even skipping the fact that war was unjust and unnecessary. On a purely practical basis, these guys can't walk and chew gum at the same time. The chickenhawks had no idea what they were getting into. They just sent our military off to kill and be killed without a second thought.
