I am a soldier and I support my fellow brothers and sisters in arms. I also support all of you fine Americans that support us. so, THANK YOU!
By the way, I'd like to ask a hypothetical question.
If you were training to be an Olympic Skater, do something that no one believe you could. And everyone kept telling you to give it up, come home, that you can't do it. That you're wasting your time and that it'll never happen, and then turns around the next minute and tells you that they support you, would you believe them?

No, I am for the war, but I am against the troops. My logic goes like this. The Pentagon has sent the correct number of troops, had a feasible plan of attack, has provided everything that the soldiers need to get the job done, and they have failed to do so. I have no choice but to put this failure on the soldiers because, according to what I've been reading all day, Bush nor his advisors have ever made an error of any kind regarding this war. This isn't a sport, we're not going to fire the coach just because the players can't get it done. They need to pick up their game so that this starts to go how we expected.

You bet!
And for this guy: "I can't support someone who volunteered to kill and die, and who are now regretting it because they realize it's a waste....They deserve their fate..." Wow... you are... unbelievable. I never would have thought that there were people like you out there. Thank you for opening my eyes to your evil. And who says we regret it?!?! ** I REGRET NOTHING! ** Yeah it sucks being away from my fiance and my loved ones, and I work long hard hours and do/see things that no human should have to but oh well. This is my job and I everyday I feel more pride in what we are doing.
Thanks for those of you who are still supporting us; we do appreciate it and it means a lot to know that not everyone has given up on us. And good question Alpha Male, I like your analogy.

Spectacular at what? Getting killed by their uncaring government?
Or the parts which showed the military at their finest when torturing and killing other Iraqis: Abu Ghraib, Basra, Kirkuk, Baghdad...?
I don't have any love for a military that proceeds to harm those people they sought to liberate, and now don't care what happens to them in the long-term.

Just kidding. I wanted to see the look on your face :)
Of course I support our troops, as well as the Coalition Troops.

Our US Troops are brave and courageous and I support them, I don't support them to be taken advantage off with low pay and bad medical care. They deserve our best.

ABSOL_DAMN_LUTELY!
I was one of them for 12 years (before the current Iraq situation though). Never saw combat but would have been proud to go if my country had asked.
Simply put, we have the best trained, equipped, and manned military in the world and they should be honored for the job they are doing!

Yes, I support our troops. No, I do not support the civilian command authority.

A few thoughts on our military:
There is no greater love than that one should lay down his life for his fellow man.
Where do we find such people?
How does America keep producing such glorious patriots?
All volunteers!
Damn, I love them!
God bless the U.S. Military!

Yes I support our Troops 100%. I love our troops.
Stand up America! It’s time to support the good men and women of the United States Military! The time is long overdue for a radical protest against the filth and corruption that has infested the United States Government. This is about the lies of 911, the illegal war in Iraq and bringing our troops home to their loved ones. If you are a true American Patriot you will join in and become a part of this wonderful event that is about to take place.
The U.S. antiwar movement and the impeachment movement are becoming entwined, just in time for the March 17 rally at the Pentagon. Here’s the best part! You don’t have to travel all the way to D.C. to perform your Patriotic Duty to America. There will be hundreds of Anti-War protest happening across the Nation. Los Angeles is having a massive protest Saturday, March 17th 2007 at Noon. Other locations include...

I support our troops 100% and it’s time to bring them home.
As Americans it is time to make our stand to protect the Constitution and Fundamentals of what this Great Country was founded on.
I encourage everyone to copy and paste this information and post it as often as you can until the March 17 protest begins.
