There is a difference between "questioning orders" and expressing one's constitutionally-protected free speech and political leanings. It's silly to debate the obvious. You don't criticize the commander in chief...directly or indirectly...you don't criticize the mission....you just don't do these things. In any case, it came to the point where the war was opposed by a majority in the military...the army times reported, as did most media outlets. Now, things have quieted down since then, but to call iraq a victory is to fail to understand the fragility of the situation there. When american presence is removed, we'll see the real situation in iraq. Until then, it's held in check by military might. Al
