I agree with you 100% We have no real reason for being in Iraq except that G.W. Bush wanted to finish what his daddy started No disrespect to our troops they are only going where they were sent Just like in 'Nam

Abu Gharib ... ooooh scary, dogs barked at me, someone put underwear on my head, a woman pointed at me and laughed.  Big deal.\n\nGuantanamo ... tell me, what happened there.  FACTS, not the NewsWeek/60 Minutes lies.  Air conditioned rooms, 3 hots and a cot, meals made specially for them.  WOW that's real torture.\n\nHaditha ... you don't know what happened there, I don't know what happened.  All we know is that there has been an investigation, all of the Marines were given thumbs up on a job well done.  No soldier is being charged with anything.\n\nOK now let's look at the guys we are fighting:\n-using women/children as bombs\n-beheadings, kidnappings, REAL torture, rape\n-blowing up anything and everything with IEDs\n-these guys would kill you, your family, and everyone you know if you gave them half a chance\n\nSo before you want to wring your hands and shout THOSE POOR PEOPLE.  Look at the facts before you dump on Pres Bush and our marines and demand we leave.

I think we need to get our butts out of there. It's stupid. It's pointless... it's the U.S. proving we're little kids. I mean, really, if all the countries were represented as children, it'd be so accurate.\n\nUSA: Iraq... can I have some of your oil?\nIraq: No.\nUSA: Please?\nIraq: No.\nUSA: You're mean! (Throws rock at Iraq, takes oil... and destroys their government, and makes a new one. Then leaves.)\nIraq: (Crying.) USA, I hate you!

God bless Colonel Bupb and all soldiers serving our country, even the stupid ones!, (Thank you Sen Kerry!)  You have to remember that Murtha, who has insulted our troops, Kerry, who for the second time this year has insulted the US military,  Durbin, who has called our US military worse than Pol Pot, Nazism, etc. Dean and Pelosi, who loathe the US miliary and Leahy, who has repeatedly raised the morale level of the insurgents by his repeated vitriolic insults of the present administration. All these people are hurting the Democrats! They make up the radical left that us Clintonite's are trying desperately to eject from the Democratic party in an attempt to (rightly) keep the Democrats in the 'moderate' swing of the party. With radical left-wing minions like Victora Wulsin attempting to label our soldiers as "victims of Bush's failed Middle East policies' further alienates voters away from the Democratic party. Volunteer soldiers are HEROES, every last one of them!

I believe we are starting to see signs of a determined effort on the part of the US administration to give the fledgling Iraqi government a timetable to deal with, in terms of the US reducing its troop strength. This is happening for a number of reasons.  1) The American people have had quite enough of the pace of this war and our inability to stop the senseless killings of our troops, by these devil worshiping bastards the media calls, insurgents.\n2) We need to free ourselves up from this circle jerk before the next one starts.\nWe may not see a complete troop withdrawal for a long time, but we may be able to pull our guys back or out of harms way so they are no longer practice fodder for the bad guys.  Remember, the bad guys don't want to see us go, they want to keep us there putting out fires, but hopefully we can see that and not allow ourselves to play into it.

God would say, George I'm sorry you are having to go through this, but you will be rewarded, and the people of Iraq will be grateful when this is all through.  I'm sorry that Satan (democrats) is in league with the evil forces of the media to ruin this country.  This is a test of this country grit, and although it seems dark right now, we will come forth the winners.  Keep the faith, you are doing the right thing.

That guy can kiss my sweaty combat ass!! If he thinks he has the right to shout orders at US troops he is mistaken. Let's not forget who is in control here. WE ARE. The troops on the ground contol the military not some fat ass Iraqi. So screw him.

Get it right.  It's not our military that is does anything on their own.  The Government my friend.  Mr George W!  He is sending everyone to slaughter.  Not just our brothers, sisters, dad neighbors and friends but he is screwing up the whole world.  Military men are trained to do what they are told.

Oh God!!!  You people make me freakin' sick!!!\n\nOk...Iraq in on the verge of imploding as we speak.  Do you not realize the impact the US Forces are having right now?  If we pulled out this very second a whole lot more "innocent" people would be blown to bits by their country men.  We're traning Iraqi Police and Iraqi National Guard so that maybe they will become strong enough to protect their own country.  We're rebuilding schools and providing medical aide to the sick and wounded.  Just because you watch the news does not mean that you are in any way, shape or form "enlightened" to what's really going on.  Have you ever heard the phrase, "News is only good when it's bad"?  No?  Well pay attention, because the only time Iraq is in the news is when someone dies or someone f*cks up.\n\nAs for the US soldiers who have died- They Enlisted!!  We have an all volunteer army folks.  No one forced us to join!  No one was holding a gun to my mothers head when I signed that dotted line.  We all know the risks of joining the military and if some one tells you different they're a God D@mn liar!  Don't cry for us.  We don't want your scorn or pity.  Just say "thank you" and be on your way.\n\nOh you support the troops you say?  You don't want any more of us to die you say?  News flash!  If we pulled out now it would be a slap in the face to those of us who have ALREADY made the ultimate sacrifice.  It would be like telling those who were killed or mutilated that it was all for nothing!!!  They laid down their lives for nothing!!! \n\nScrew you people and your yellow bellied, liberal, bull$hit.

LOL!  You would've had me believing your nice little story except you decided to use the Marine Corps as your example.  \n\nMarines know why we are there and are happy to be able to help the Iraqi people.  Marines may cry over the loss of one of their own, but they would not be in OUR COUNTRY crying in A RESTAURANT over something like that!\n\nNice story though.

The liberal media will never be satisfied. They hate our country too much to care what happens to innocent Marines. They've already tried and hung them. They're not going to say I'm sorry and be all apologetic. They're going to bring up something else that they think is wrong with the military or the Bush Administration, and keep those Marines in jail even longer. They have such an intense hatred of anything Bush or anything that's right, that they couldn't imagine supporting the military. My brother's a Marine, in the same division. He knows the corpsman. The corpsman told Tim (my brother) that they weren't even close to the place where that incident happened. It's an outrage that someone could be so unAmerican.

we simpy don't know of the horrible abuses that are probably happening in iraq because of our troops....our troops have acted like monsters for a very long time.  i would have gone to jail before joining the military.

Well now i can not comment on the A.C.L.U because i have no idea what it stands for. But i would like to comment on your comment about a Marine getting mad at you. my comment is POPPYCOCK. that's an English word for Crap. Just as your Entire Fantasy of  the  story you have just told. If that had really happened the way you say it did. I do believe you would never have had time to get out the ACLU card before you hit the ground Unconscious. After the Marine hit you.

It makes me want to cry thinking what those marines went through...My problem is not with the marines, or Bush, but with the terrorists, Al-Qiada..they are savages with no regard for human life..all in the name of " a religion of peace-Islam"?? I'm sure not every Islamic person is like this, I don't want to group them all as savages..just the ones that profess Islam and do the opposite...I'm rambling..bottom line..I want our men and women to come home. They are in my prayers always.\nI do feel that if we pull out we will be known as the country that doesn't finish what it starts, even weak..and they way things are now I don't think we want that.

I'm a Marine who fought in Iraq.  I'm out now, but you could say I'm lonely in a much different way.  After returning to civilian life, few people understand life in the military, let alone a war.  They don't know what it's like to be shot at, to be the hunter, to be the prey.  It's hard to relate to people sometimes.  But, best to our troops that are fighting the fight now, and for their fight to come.
