>>the men (and women) in the field have my 100% support 24/7

As they have mine. I support them and call for them to be quickly returned home safely. See we agree on something.

>>this Republican vs. Democrats stuff HAS to stop for the moment....Bush DID win! Get past it

This has nothing to do with Democrats or Republicans. I don't support either party. This is about policy not politics.

And quite honestly, and there is nothing personal in this, I respect you and your right to disagree with me, but this I was against the war but now that we are there I am in favor of it stuff makes you sound like you don't even believe yourself.
