then go stand in front of them!

This was on a bumper sticker - what do you think? I have to admit that although i want our troops to come home, to be safe, & the wars to be over - i also firmly believe that it must be finished - & leaving to spare military casualties will ensure more civilian casualties at our embassies, attacks on allies, as well as here at home. I heard Dennis Miller say right now - while our soldiers are fighting if you're not supporting 'em you shouldn't vocalize that opinion at this time....b/c those kids need to know that they are being supported - that we believe in 'em *that's the very least we can do here at home. " Yea we've have our own opinions & yea we've got the right to express 'em- but just b/c we've got the right doesn't mean we should vocalize our opinions recklessly & with adandon.

We have interpreters for the deaf. And other tech to help out
other handicapped people. My sister was in the Navy and
all she did was type in computer word processor, picked up dead bodies of old people from the Naval Hospitals, and other non war related activities.
Why we have to be 100% healthy to join the military, that doesn't make sense?

For the 10th time I observed a "I support the troops" decal on a SUV. A 50 year old driver with two sons around 24 to 26. "AND" for the 10th time I took it off a vehicle. Why? Because after I said thanks for supporting the troops ( Yes he smiled ) I ask him to send his children to the war zone. ( His smile went sour ) He said "No way will my smart kids go into a war zone! I only support the war if my kids don't have to fight. We're too rich! We don't need the military in our families. We have money!" I ask the young men. They said "Heck NO! We like to Party!" Then the youngest said "What! There is still a War?".....So after they went into the restaurant I took my 10th decal. You see...I can't let them live a lie. ( This happened in Mt Clemens Michigan at the Big Boy restaurant about two hours ago)

Do you believe there will ever be another circumstance where the President would take personal command of our soldiers in the battlefield? Or do you think that advanced training for soldiers, combined with advanced weapons and satellite technology will prevent this situation from ever happening?

To my knowledge, this has only happened twice. President Washington did this when he led his troops against the Whiskey Rebellion, and President Madison did it when Washington, D.C. came under fire in during the war of 1812.

Does anyone believe it will ever happen again?

After serving in Vietnam, and experiencing first hand horrors of war, why did'nt McCain "move forward" and inform his constituents about the lessons not learned from Vietnam? Like another unpopular war, I served as a teenage combatant in VN and discovered the errors of that war 30 years ago! Why are these mistakes repeated? Could McCain be a traitor and killer like Bush and the rest of the Republican Redneck Team? McCain is a disgrace to himself, and the American People!!

Movies make it look like every marine gets trained until their a black belt. But I want to know for real what kind of hand-to-hand training the standard Marine gets. Do they basically learn how to box and kick? Is it more then that? Do they learn ground fighting? What?

CBS News reported on 18 December 2006 that the Bush administration has decided to ramp up the naval presence in the Persian Gulf to send a message to Tehran. CBS reported that an additional aircraft carrier would be added to the Gulf contingent in January 2007, arriving on station around 01 February 2007. The New York Times reported 20 December 2006 that the Bremerton-based aircraft carrier CVN-74 John C. Stennis and its strike group could leave weeks earlier than planned as part of a move to increase the U.S. military presence in and around the Middle East.

Now with 2 air craft carriers sitting by Iran and more and more mobilized forces building up on Iran's border (Iraq); do you think that the US will declare its job done in Iraq and let the Iraqi Forces deal w/ the militias and handle Iran? How far do you tihnk the US will go to attacking Iran?

In a conventional war, Iran would loose miserablly; also what about AMerica's ally, Israel? Do you beleive theyll go straight in with the US or maybe even beat AMerica to attacking Iran?

--
Im not saying theres a plan to attack Iran or anything; but its going to happen. Im asking...

-How long do you think it will be until America and Israel attack
-And how do you think they will go about attacking Iran?
