"taking the fight to those murdering, ruthless, western world hating Jihadast, radical, lunitic muslim extremist instead of fighting them in our back yard is more than worthy. Guys wake up and smell the pansies there are thousands of these murdering nutjobs that want to come to this country and kill us all."

I agree, and have been preaching this since this thing began. We ARE going to have to fight them, why?, because they want to KILL us, better over there than over here !!!!!!!!!

"How the heck can you support the troops and not support what they are doing, I just don't get that, AT ALL!"

I made this statement, and I am going to have to stick with it. Our troops are doing their job. We have all worked for idiot bosses. Several of you on this post have said forget the democracy goals - they are impossible to meet - then why are we still there? That is the exact reason our current administration justifies keeping our troops there - to restore and maintain government in Iraq. If you agree it is truly impossible to restore democracy by force in Iraq, then you must be against the war too.
