Iraq...forgotten?

You may hate it but that very thing is why US troops fight. IMO they should be more offended if no one used the rights they fought and died for.

So the soldiers are fighting for the freedom to protest? How about my right to peaceful life without protestors.

It is a lot more fun to poke and jab at them.

Now that the tide is very obviously turning in Iraq, it seems that this forum is intriguingly silent...

What's the deal?

Now that the cost of the war is approaching 1 trillion, and the value of the U.S. dollar and Canadian dollar are about equal, we can all agree it was worth it.

yeah I know but that guy is older and had his reasons no matter how warped they were. I certainly dont condone that crap, and I really hate ANY disrespect towards the troop. I've got several close friends in and back from I-CRAP and I see what they are like now. Its diffrent. They are diffrent. I'm not going to tolerate a whole bunch of anti-war garbage around them. We were all in college together when 9-11 happened and many of them signed up THE NEXT DAY. Its just a crappy subject regardless of your political views. Bush or no Bush, Democrates or Republicans...whatever, screw it. Here is the point. These guys are troops, not politicians so show respect. Espeacially if you are of the flag burning, weed smoking, "gotta get to canada" variety. Dang it ..I ranted again. my bad.
So it's a "warped reason" to be against the war? Listen up grasshopper...I had family and friends die in Nam, so get off that freakin' high patriot games flag raising horse of yours. When my friends starting dying in Nam, that's when I got pissed and did every thing I could to stop that senseless war. "Domino Theory"...maybe you've heard of it, but I seriously doubt it.

sorry sir. I'll be much more respectful next time. I certainly didnt mean to sound like an ....uhhh....patriot...(thats bad?)..what I meant to say was it is unfortunate, but a vet has obviously been "attacked" enough. Its really not needed from an arm band wearing, long haired, "We're gonna march on Washington and make a change!", draft card burner. Now excuse me sir...with all do respect, and pour me another STARBUCKS so I can get to my job that i go to everyday without fear because theres a 21 year old kid with an AR 15 that said I can do that today. ps ...the kid's mom is sending cookies next week, wanna chip in? Im done .:salute:

I'm still waiting for slobber's reasoning on why our current military isn't all-volunteer.

If it was easy then everone would do it.
It's clearly getting easier. Everyone would do it if greed weren't driving those in power who fight daily to oppose it. Difficulty is not the reason more nations don't do freedom.
