What have you war supporters personally sacrificed for this occupation, I mean war? Paying more to fill your gas tank doesn't count, we've all had to pay that price.

"a year without my husband...a year that my children didn't have their dad and getting ready to do it all over again...friends being killed...we sacrifice a lot...now i won't b*tch and complain because this is my husbands job and i support him...and our friends"
So you have sacrified the lives friends, and time with your husband and you can still support this war??
Honey, my husband is Marine grunt and is currently in Iraq for his 4th tour. We've lost friends, my children have sacrificed the majority of their childhoods with their father, and we have lost precious sanity and every ounce of our idealism. Those are some of the many reasons why I DO NOT support this war. I support my husband and love him unconditionally and that is the very reason why I speak against the governments usury of him and those like him.
"So people like yourself can ask a pointless questions. I fought for your right to do so even though I don't agree with you."
No, you have fought so that Iraqi's can do so. Our rights to ask "pointless questions" were paid for in blood centuries ago.

Do you mean for this one or those wars before. I served twice once at the end of Viet Nam and again during Gulf War I. As for sacrifice you would not understand unless you have been there yourself.
Read R. A. Heinlein's Starship troopers and pay attention to the section on moral philosophy!

I support not withdrawing. I work 10-12 hours a day at least five days a week (no overtime pay or compensation). I get all expense paid trips to Iraq and Afghanistan, courtesy the deployment cycle. I am responsible for everything that one of my troops does, and WILL be held accountable for those decisions.
What do you sacrifice?

He died for your right to hate America and Hate the military that protects you.
We all sacrifice with the loss on every soldier.
Do you keep a count of the dead to get off on?
Your own questions show you hate America

Well lets see I have lost a cousin have one wounded in combat brother, two more still there, and a close family friend who is a double amputee! No one forced them to join! they went on their own. The two that are wounded want to go back but because of their injuries they can't! I would be there if it were not for wrecked knees! I think my family has made some pretty damn big sacrifices!

good remark.america now is justifying this war through cnn;
and also it is trying to make bush as a hero.unfortunately there are still people who swallow everything with pop corn.many ideologies,ex terrorism,extremism,undemocracy...
these words have lost their real definition,bush and his house are playing with these words the way it suits israel & them. "democracy and freedom" are synonym of"killing for oil"
that is the real definition.those who believe everything broadcasted are just dumb.you are not one of them since you got the point.

Clearly, the mindless goons that have supported this illegal war have sacrificed not only every last shred of respectability and honor, they have also sacrificed their right to show their bloodthirsty faces anywhere civilized human beings gather.
