Thanks, brian, but rereading it, I need to clarify something that was part of something I later cut out because I'm longwinded enough--

I'm not saying I think "tough noogies; you signed up for it" about our soldiers over there (looking at my comments about voluntary enlistment). I still think we were deliberately misled into war by this Administration because they really thought they could pull this off and win before their lies caught up with them. And I think our army works hard, and quite frankly, is not well-paid for what they do or well-supported when they return from war. And I think while enlisting is voluntary, that the men and women who enlist believe that our government would never send them into danger unless there were no other alternative. And I think this administratin willfully sent them into danger and death without reason, and I think that was a huge breach of faith with the military. And a huge breach of humanity and humility on the part of the President and Vice President.
