I think you're reading too much into my posts without knowing anything about me

Can't speak for Likwid, don't know him.

Putting the Zarqawi death in context isn't in any way diminishing the efforts of our troops. That's just the same bull%$%$%$%$ logic that says any critisim of the President is against the troops and their mission.

I know all I can know, and I form my opinions on that base. I'm not some liberal crackpot, hell, I'm even making my stepson read Nathan Fick's book so he can understand what it means to be a Marine.

My support and utter respect for our troops is precisely the reason I get so ticked when they are seemingly shown such contempt by the civilian leadership who order them into combat in a reckless manner.

What CIVILIAN Leadership are you referring to??? Obviously you are not referring to the Commander in Chief of the Armed Forces. So who exactly are you referring to ?
I am VERY confused. S-plain it to me !

Riddle me this , Who said these words?
Hint, this guy would have been a TOP POLICYMAKER if KERRY won the election.
Point is, what alternative plans are the Dems offering this year in 2006 ?

Let me get this straight...so the idea that Richard Holbrooke (whom I admire) wasn't willing or able to lay out a magic "fix Iraq" plan nearly 3 years after the invasion in an interview is proof that we would have been doomed had Kerry been elected?

That's just silly.

The real issue isn't even Dem vs Repub. It's to flush the current neocon policy wonks out of office.

Any decent leader could do what it takes to regain our moral high ground and make objective decisions giving the operational folks a chance to make more meaningful contributions on the ground that have some staying power.

You mean the "little beady eyed pointed nose miget prick" policy, stupid? Nah, no hate for the man there. Unfortunately Spence unlike you not all of your Brethren can get beyond their hate for the man to take the time to understand policy.
