Congratulations on your service. No I cannot say I was allowed to serve. When my cousin went for his second tour, I became old enough to enlist. I was born in Canada, but I went to the Niagara Falls Recruitment office and signed the required papers, but I didn't get in. So how do you feel when people shit on the American flag? How do you feel when they burn soldiers in effigy? As for my being for any war, that just isn't true. But I do not see any way to get out of Iraq, without creating the same crap we saw when the US left Vietnam. I don't think the grandstanding of the Democrats is a help and by cutting off the funding, I believe the Democrats are using the American Military as pawns in a race for the presidency. The war is on, How would you solve this without the death of more people than Saddam killed? My personal belief is that many of the problems we face started with the failure to prosecute Muslim War Criminals in WWII. Had the complicity of Islamic leaders been acknowledged and prosecuted in 1945, the Middle east might be much more like Europe today. I believe that Carter's inaction made things worse not better, much like a child who uses rage as an attention getting device.

<< "Just a few quick things to ya Nutjobs" >> There better not be any more baseless personal attacks by you or any one else as of the time stamp on this post. If your harsh rhetoric isn't reasonably accurate & rarely used, don't bring it here. And I'm the one who determines frequency of use & what is reasonably accurate, not you. That means it MUST be credible & verifiable.

<< "Don't try and blame this war on the Democrats. They were not the ones cherry picking intelligence" >> Dem's voted for the Use of Force Authorization & they had access to essentially same intel that the Bush Admin had. That's a fact. The Bush Admin did NOT "cherry pick intelligence". That's a fact based on the unanimous conclusions of at least 2 bipartisan investigations. That's a fact. It seems your BDS is based on a lot of lies.

I didn't serve & I fully support Bush & the decision to go into Iraq. Does that make me a "chickenhawk"? I bet you have come out against Bush's Supreme Court nominations, yet you aren't a Judge or Constitutional expert. I bet you have come out in support of Gore's global warming charade, yet you aren't a degreed climatologist. I bet you have come out against Bush's tax cut policies, yet you aren't an economist in the field of tax policy. I bet you have come out against Bush's plan to save Social Security, yet you aren't a degreed expert in entitlement programs. So what exactly is your point?
