"What was the troops' response to Hillary's "uplifting message"? Anyone know?"

I got an email from soldier stationed in Iraq and the troops are furious that Hillary Clinton told them that their mission was probably doomed to fail,that the policies of their Commander in Chief are not supported by many Americans( the policies they are risking their lives to enforce) and that only the UN can do the job in Iraq. Their sentiments remind me of those souvenir t shirts-"My parents went to Cancun and all I got was this lousy t shirt", but,instead the troop's shirts would read: "I spent Thanksgiving in Iraq and all I got was a visit from that lousy Senator from New York." Can you imagine the media uproar if Senator Liddy Dole went to Kosovo during the Clinton years and said the same demoralizing things to the troops? I really hope conservative talk show hosts don't let this drop,it's too important to those on the front lines.
