Four More years in Iraq
So lets see then, four more years in Iraq with troops numbers over 100K. Thats a lof of young men and woman dying for a lie.

Come on MSM, do your job for once.

2. I don't think the military can survive at that level -- 4 more years.
The rate of injuries for the troops is very high -- plus the fact that many are facing a third return to Iraq (I'm having flashbacks to the Vietnam era -- I started to type Vietnam and had to change it to Iraq).

Even if individuals who serve aren't injured physically they are certain to have deep emotional scares -- if they have an ounce of empathy in their souls.

The thing is that the US needs the military -- for DEFENSE of her own territory -- but these idiots are using the military to conquer the whole funking world.

At the same time these idiots are trying to murder the middle class -- the taxpayers -- the salaried ones who have to pay tax to keep the country going.

It is feeling real drafty.
