Peter, If this socialistic Congress continues to treat our military forces the way they are, and does not give them the men, and weapons, to achieve victory, there will be many soldiers that will not reup when their time comes, and young people of military age, will not join the armed services. The result will be that the citizens of the USA will have no one to protect them from attacks, and terrorism.

It is sad to say, that those that elected those now in the Congress, knowing they were going to be averse to getting the job done in Iraq, have opened up a can of worms that cannot be dealt with, and many Americans will die because of what this Congress is going to do.

I just can't wrap my mind around the concept of "support the troops but oppose their mission." To the troops, they ARE the mission.

I wonder how many politician would like to be "supported" by an electorate who provided money and votes to their opposition? I wonder if Obama could handle it if his supporters sent donations to and voted for Hillary while "supporting" him?
