It is a terrbile situation in the Middle East and our troops and American public are being fed a bunch of BS propoganda from the Bush administration. I guess their will always be some crazy loons in the US who support the Bush administration. Those people are clueless. I know my stuff and you don't.

Ask a solider or a vet what they are fighting for and if it is worth it. Everyone has a job in life and they do their job. Our men and women in the armed forces know the risks of any war and this is their duty. It is upsetting when any solider male or female dies in battle, past - present - and future.
To our soliders they are fighting for something. Their comrad standing next to them. Their family back home. To see tomorrow.
They are dying so that you and I still have our freedom and to hope that freedom may become apart of Iraq's new culture.
Here is a question for you.. Are you in the military, have family or friends in the military? If you do ask them this question. Because they know what they are fighting for.

What You do not know is the difference between serving and being served. The political decisions that waste the lives of our military take away from the fact serving is honorable. If the time comes when giving service to the defense of Your country is frowned upon like back in the Nam days then this country will become another France. The fight was right but the plans and planners are wrong. Again world diplomacy waste American lives. This country should have the strength to take out the real villains (Syria and Iran). Not occupy them just destroy their infrastructure to stop support for terrorist.

If they are dying for oil then they are dying for this country's blood. Can you imagine what would happen in this country if there was no oil? This nation would come to a standstill and we'd all starve.
Why did Hitler lose World War 2? Oil or the lack thereof.
If you think oil isn't worth dying for then lets see you live without it! (I'll start digging your grave for you. Whoops I can't because the store that sells shovels closed because the trucks brinnging the shovels is out of gas, which is no big loss because the factory that made them closed because the machinery broke down due to the oil shortage. The worker's quit going to work becasue they could not afford to pay for the gas. Their families froze to death because there was no heating oil.)

You know your stuff, but the rest of us don't. Who do you love ???
If you knew anything at all, you would know that the invasion had nothing to do with oil. It's been explained so amny times before that I'm not explaining it again. You wouldn't understand it anyhow. You just go along with the opposition party line of BS.
Okay, I have to give an answer. It makes me feel proud that we're fighting for a good cause, in spite of the brainless stoop -heads who knock everything and everybody.

If out troops were dying for oil gas prices would be a hell of lot cheaper than what they are. You need to grow up and realize what this is about....WMDs there was wmds according to several intellignce agencies and according to saddams own scientist, if they had em they shipped them out before we got there. To rid the world of an evil tyrant majority of iraqies are elated saddam and his ruthless regime are gone. The amin reason is Iran, we wanted to place democracy in and all around iran so we can crush the head of the evil iranian government. If you dont beleive iran is the main reason keep telling yourself that but remember president tom of iran has said several times and keeps saying he wants to bring back the madi which is there messiah....meaning armeggdon...stop paying attention to the lies the liberal media is spreading just so the can get dems in!

First off, you show your ignorance with such uneducated rhetoric and a lack of Patriotism to this country with your statements. Our troops are fighting terrorists in other countries so we don't have to fight them here. The military and our intelligence community in cooperation with our allied nations have thwarted many an attack here and abroad. Yes there have been other attacks, but none here or like 9/11. What do you really know, obviously only to spew ignorance.

Are you dumb or just stupid? The War for Oil meme is based in fantasy. When the war started all the left wing nuts shouted War for Cheap Oil, a couple years later they were shouting War for Expensive Oil. Which is it, a war for cheap or expensive oil? You gotta stop smoking pot because it's making you insane.
