Most of us support our Troops.. Are we putting our support into action? Are you sending letters thanking them and boosting their morale?

Are you sending care packages?

Are you volunteering to put care packages together?

If you have been meaning to, but just haven't know where to go...these sites should help you.

Who do you think was the greatest American Civil War Cavalry commander? I've narrowed my choices down to Sherridan, Custer, Mosby, Stuart and Forrest.

When Bush says this, do you picture running gun battles with Al-Queda insurgents in your downtown, or IED's taking out school buses on Main Street? Does this make you afraid of daily gun battles in your neighborhood? Do you consider that something like that would even be possible?

And when the government foils a terrorist plot, isn't that just proof that the logic is flawed, because the terrorists are still trying to fight us "over here" regardless of us fighting them "over there"?

So what exactly does Bush mean when he cites this as the reason to continue the Iraq war?

I'm not looking for justifications for the war, just an explanation of the logic behind that statement.

We got another deployment coming up for the 39th infanty(Army Guard). I get pissed everytime i turn to the news and they go on (libs)about how disastrous this war is and the mistake we made trying to establish a government! Mistake?!?! were over there fight our asses off, setting up a government which can sustain it self, defend it self, and run its self, by its self. We have been working with Iraqie troops that are some of the best troops you can work with. They stand up they fight along side us. And i have heard nothin of this, the only damn thing i'v heard was the libs distrespecting me, the army, the iraqies, and this war that were fighting for.

Lesion too a Ranger and tell me how you feel about this war.

I enlisted into the army's delayed entry program about three months ago. After training like crazy, losing twenty pounds, and giving my final goodbyes to family, i returned to M.E.P.S to ship out on October 25th (the date on the contract). I was sent home because my recruiters never performed a P.T. test with me, which is required to go to the reception battalion. I was also told by my recruiters that i woudn't need a debit card or checks and that an account and routing number would suffice. This turned out to be false which is another reason i was sent home. I called my recruiter from M.E.P.S and he said there would be someone at the recruiter station back home that would run my P.T. test for me and no one was there when i showed up at the agreed time and place. Now, my recruiter wont take my phone calls. My question is, where do i stand with my contract? Is it still valid? How long before i can begin a new contract with a different branch? Am i in trouble since i never shipped?

He says army makes it hard,,,??

Is it true? or Is he lying?

Murtha said "they [the Marines] killed innocent people. There’s no question in my mind about what happened here. There was no gunfire. They killed four people in a taxi and then in addition to that, they went into the rooms and killed them." Now the facts are out, and it turns out that the Marines did nothing wrong. Should Murtha apologize for accusing them of murder ?

At my uncles funeral today, after folding the flag, the marines each saluted it, one at a time. They did it in slow motion, I am wondering why that is? Is there a reason?

Most know Iraq was a mistake. Innocent people are dying, our brothers, sisters, husbands and wives are coming home in body bags. Kids and innocent Iraqis are in the crossfire. We spend billions in blood money, and cant take care of ourselves. Once looked up to now we are despised. Our healthcare is sickening in itself. Are you trying to change things? Do you care? Organize in schools, churches or any meeting places. Look up the facts and act. So my question is who really cares? And whos all talk.

For christs sake, what is with all the Anti American liberals whining over 4000 deaths of the US forces and using that to dishonor our country. I know every death is hard, but why are the liberals using that to try and make us loose the war. If for say we do pull out(retreat) then we will be dishonoring each of the soldiers lives that were lost fighting. What do you think that every soldier that died would want? for one, not to see the US defeated and running away because that would mean they would have fought and died for nothing.
And if in our near future if a war with china broke out and the liberals are still whining about 5 to 10 thousand deaths, the chinese will not care if 10 million of them die. honestly if the US continues to go on this route of being unwilling to continue a war over casualties then we can not be classified as a true world power. so what, we won WWI and WWII. that was years ago. whats the point of being proud if we loose every other war, its disgraceful.

With their guns they make tombs
No mercy shown, wicked minds
Their leader enjoys it
Tanks, bombs, are devouring our world

Look at what our world has done
This scenary says it all
Enemies do it with such rhapsodize
I'm ashamed of all you

The young is next
They will kill us all, bigotry will still be present
Crying, dying,screaming, bleeding
Liberty is just a legend
It has been vanquished
