i appreciate the fact that our young men and women are willing to put their lifes on the line to fight war. however, i don't support war, in any case; unless, of course, we have a direct threat looming over us. Iraq, I feel, was not a direct threat. Sadaam Hussein is a schizoid mongolid idiot fucking madman who ought to be lynched in public by angry Kurds, but it makes me very upset knowing that our young boys and girls are dying for this shit. I support each and every soldier's efforts and courage, however I don't support most of the wars my country America has engaged in.

Thanks for my freedom, soldiers. But your leaders are fucking idiots, basically.
I kindof get your point. I used to lisetn to Rush Limbaugh and he was allways saying that it was impossible to support our troops, but not the president. I would try to call in to explain thats just not true, but I would never get through the lines. I also agree that the war wasn't needed (at least not yet), but once it got started, I dropped the political muck and focused support on the troops doing the job. I didn't want them to have to do it, but once they got started on the job, I'm behind them 100%.
