Your son did not sign up to KILL anyone. Protecting and killing are two different things. You are starting to sound like the description twirly posted of our military and that is really disgusting. You give our boys a very bad reputation. You posted exactly what they signed up to do Preserve Honor and protect OUR constitution NOT the Iraqi constitution. It is not the job of the US to NATION build.<---- those are Bush's own words.
The Iraqi do not want us there as they have stated this many times. There was no enemy there until Bush provoked every country in the middle east into this war.

Where exactly IS your son stationed Psycho? I am curious... I am not hearing the concern I hear from most parents with childern there.

So answer me this... you seem to believe that the President as the commander in chief he must be obeyed at ALL COST. Tell me this, IF someone was to go behind the back of the President lets say a general or some other high level cabinet official and make a deal with a country that the United states has cut off relations with... Lets say Cuba or maybe Iran. Would you see this as an act of treason?
You seem to put so much importance into the power of the Commander in Chief and am curious as to what you think should happen to someone dealing behind the presidents back.

THE BOOM OUTSIDE BAGHDAD December 26, 2006 -- UMQASR, IRAQ WHILE the American political elite is using Iraq as an ex cuse for fighting internal political wars, a different reality is taking shape in parts of this war-torn nation. Wherever some measure of security is assured - that is to say in more than 80 percent of Iraq - towns and villages long left to die a slow death are creeping back to life. Nowhere is this slow but steady return to life more startling than in Um Qasr, in the southeast extremity of Iraq Rating: 5
