we are still living in a country that allows us our opinion.  She doesnt need to go anywhere.  If you dont like what she has to say on this board, as is her freedom, dont read it.  You are jibberish.  I for one support what her posts says and it would be only too good to have the rest of the country on board, then we wouldnt be living in this mess.

Thankfully, I didn't have to

visit their board to see it.  I saw the entire interview when it was aired, and I agree 100% with your take on it.


Even SHE admitted that the Iraqis were very concerned over the IEDs killing people every day.


His points, I thought, were excellent, and he totally blew her out of the water.  He said we're making more enemies than we're killing and that reporters like her are fed information and basically taken on a tour.


I'm inclined to take the word of a soldier who was personally in the trenches, fighting this war firsthand for a year over a reporter with an agenda taken on a tour by the DOD.


I think Chris Matthews' question about the "fighting zeal" of the "bullies" over there and whether they're eventually going to gain control was a very good question.


I think the big difference between the insurgents and our soldiers is that zeal.  I believe we have the best soldiers in the entire world, and I believe they are doing the best job they can possibly do under such extreme circumstances, but they're doing their job, whereas the insurgents are consumed by their obsession to kill and be killed themselves.  The IEDs and the accompanying the element of surprise are only experienced by American troops, Iraqi civilians and ONE suicide bombe.  The insurgents, many times, hold the cards because they control the element of surprise in their attacks and because they're trying to DIE for their cause, while everyone else is trying to LIVE. 


And, of course, we have the article above describing how we've lowered our goals, "...shedding the unreality that dominated from the beginning."


I agreed with Paul Reickhoff when he said we should send in more troops.  We need to bombard them and get this done and over with and then get out of there, and we should have done that a long time ago.  We can't send our troops home now.  We've destroyed their entire country.  I hope we can at least leave them with the running water and electricity they had BEFORE we decided to "make life better" for them.


But Bush can't get away now with moving the goal post once again, changing the reason and "mission" yet one more time so that we can take credit for "giving them" (back) what they basically had before we demolished their country, unprovoked.


Thankfully they are not sheep and don't all ..sm
vote the same. The republicans could have all voted against it too and won with just a few democrat or independent votes. What is your point? The majority is 1 in the Senate and 12? in the House. My independent senator for one did vote against it.
