I actually felt myself become a republican today. It was 
    around 10am, when I read the latest update of the Cindy 
    Sheehan saga in CNN.com. I then shot over to read some 
    blogs about it, and perused the comments in some of them, 
    which was nothing but a long series of petty (albeit 
    entertaining) partisan bickering.

    Then it happened. The good little democrat in me tied the 
    little noose around his neck and jumped off the stool. He 
    just couldn’t take it anymore.

    Take what? The whining. The constant whining by the 
    extreme left about the reasons for war, the incompetence 
    of this administration, and how we’ve all been lied to, 
    and how we should pull out of Iraq immediately, because, 
    *gulp* our soldiers were in danger.

    Guess what folks....they signed up to join the Army, not 
    the boy scouts. Anytime your orientation to a new job 
    involves an automatic weapon, you should be smart enough 
    to figure out there’s danger involved. I actually read 
    some people’s comments about many of the soldiers over 
    there being naive....they weren’t expecting to go to war, 
    so, they should be allowed to go home. Wow.
