you don't think your friends have a political agenda?

They're soldiers and contractors, their only agenda is to serve their country and stay alive.


Oh I never said they weren't serving their country and trying to stay alive but a number of them also believe in what Bush is doing and support him strongly.......at least the ones I have met. Its true that that's changing but the majority are still for Bush.

I get my news from people who have an overview not the guy in the street who only sees part of the picture........

You can't get an overview of Iraq from a high rise office window in New York - surrounded by like minded critics.


You all have so denigrated the people who oppose you......that you believe your own spin that we are stupid.

Don't the contractors ALSO have the agenda of making a ton of money off the war? In other words, war profiteering?
