Amen to what you said, speekinout.

Tomas, read those words carefully.

Your prophesy of doom is wrong. Our soldiers WON in Viet Nam, and they are winning in Iraq.

The policy in Viet Nam was made by politicians, and now it is being made by the military with a Commander in Chief who possesses courage and commitment to military victory.

If you don't believe that now, you will eventually, because it is the truth.

As speekinout said, we do not NEED to slaughter innocent Iraqis as you would like our soldiers to do. This is a different era with different weapons, and this is a different war.

Every time you say it is the same as Viet Nam, you hurt the soldiers and their families, just as the left does when it makes the bogus comparison in their effort to regain power

The only difference is that it is their intent to hurt us. I assume your intent is not to do harm.......but I don't have a clue as to why youm on thread after thread, continue to demoralize our brave soldiers and their families with your dark words.

It is shameful, IMO, and you should stop.

ohio, we have the best military forces ever assembled. As you know. We will never lose militarily.
Those of us at home *must* do all we can to re-elect President Bush so that we will not surrender. President Bush has the courage and the determination to finish the war on terrorism. We have to be united and strong. The best thing we can do for our superb young people is to make sure that their leaders are committed to them, and will never abandon them.
Our wars are about political will.

The problem is with the definition of "slaughter innocent Iraqis" is. We all know that the liberal press will portray anyone that isn't in some sort of a uniform of our enemy as an "innocent". What if the crazies in Iraq were to begin using young children - is that child an "innocent" if they try to get a bomb near our boys? It all comes down to who defines the terms of war.
