It seems to me that there is an effort to villify our soldiers. There has been an ugly story about the 101st Tigers from the Viet Nam war and a story about 8 Marines charged in a prisioner's death. And now this. The democrats are in a tough spot having to praise the troops for such good work early on and now trying to discredit the same for post Saddam efforts. This is just another attempt to invent a dark cloud for the silver lining.

I have lately told people that there is an orchestrated effort to demoralize and target our soldiers, and THAT is the parallel with Viet Nam (not "quagmire, and not "a new Tet"). Once they get the "baby killer" mantra going, then the spitting will start.

Perhaps the troops returning from overseas should get a crack at capturing and arresting some media people for attacks on American military personnel.
