Hmm... What if you believe that the troops that die everyday are dying for an unjust and unnecessary cause? Isn't silence the equivalent of condoning the actions? I suppose that argument could be made. However, those arguments should have been made PRIOR to troop deployment. Once the boots hit the ground, I think that unity should prevail. Put another way, do you think it's helpful for US politicians to make derogatory political statements while there are troops in the field? Do you think this kind of behavior helps our troops? What kind of affect do you think it has on our enemies? Diz-
