That's hopeful there. I think we'll see the tide turn into our favor soon if we only have a little bit patience (this is intended for the Left throughout the World)

Remember the Civil War did not look good for the Union the first couple of years but it took a Grant and a Sherman to get things done.

Yes. And the number of Union deaths during the Civil War was much higher than the number of American deaths in Iraq.

100 times as many Union Soldiers died because of the US Civil War.

Many of them were draftees, who had no interest in joining the military.
