What Americans Are Thinking About Iraq Excerpt:Tired of what, you ask? Well, let me tell you:
* We are tired of the transgressions of a handful of soldiers in Iraq that mistreated a few terrorist suspects being portrayed as indicative of the entire U.S. military and culture.
* We are tired of the non-stop apologies from the president on down to the Capitol Hill coat-room attendant.
* We are tired of the words ''atrocity,'' ''torture,'' and ''mutilate'' being misapplied to the abuses of Arab and Iraqi terrorist and jihadist insurgents. In most respects, college fraternity initiations strike a remarkable resemblance.

* We are tired of an overstuffed Hefty-bag-with-a-hat, namely Michael Moore, and a whiny, hate-encrusted gremlin, surly Al Franken, receiving any serious thought as to what they have to say.
* We are tired of repeated references by Senators Ted Kennedy, Tom Harkin, and Frank Lautenberg to the country’s leaders as ''chicken hawks,'' thereby creating the standard that if you did not see action in the military, you are unfit to oversee it. Presidents Adams, Jefferson, and Franklin Roosevelt have shown otherwise, as has William Jefferson Clinton.
