| 5. Just turned it on in time to watch Lindsay Graham, Fantacy land speaking |

He is up there spouting what will happen if we leave. The whole middle east will be winners and we will be loosers. It was pure doom, gloom and terror. I have low blood pressure but, lordy, palpitations have set in. The Insanity of all this Lieberman and Graham terror talk has me Livid.
Well, I have a solution. According to Linsay we need to stay the course in Iraq until it is a stable country and all the ME will also become peaceful, like Libya is now!
OK, if it is critical that we stay for years or decades in Iraq to make that safe, secure and democratic then let's institute a draft so that every American can participate in this hugh project.
Since the repubs don't want to give our troops a decent internal between combat duty it is apparent that we need Many More Troops. They need to put up or shut up.
There is no way our present military can continue at the pace they put through now. Damn Them!!!
Our troops are not laundry, wash, rinse and set out to dry and then when they get dirty repeat the procedure.
