As Napoleon once said, "I'll take 10 troops with the will to fight over 50 cannons". What he said has always been true-- the will to fight on the battlefield (as well as the political will back home) is far, far more important than weapons and technology.
I think the author of this article makes some valid points. Worth thinking about. We have to keep morale in the ranks high, we have to be willing to fight dirty with the terrorists, we have to be willing to suffer some deaths among us to defeat them, and we can't let the liberals hamper our political will to fight.
On a somewaht tangential note, my God, can you imagine what would happen to all the hard work we've accomplished if a Democrat is elected in 2008? Think if Hillary were POTUS. (shaking head now)
I'll sincerely pray for otherwise.

If that happens, I am selling everything, and sailing to the tropics (again) even leaving the wife behind if she won't go.
Remember the movie "On the Beach"?
