Got to admit the rush into war under phoney pretenses, the 20,000+ maimed & wounded, 2737 dead US. troops, Plamegate, etc. you know where I'm going with this, we do support the troops...right?!!!!!!!!!!!! then don't obsess with Foleygate.

1. Eh.
The dead troops have been sitting in the back seat for the last three years.

Frankly, Foley's their best ticket home.

6. Iraq has helped us to be able to question the Fuhrer and
Foley is helping to jerk the rug out from under the RNC power structure. We need to focus on both.
