If McHagar wins the Republican nomination, Hillary will win the white house.

Being a soldier, and reading history....I noticed that liberals never get it..to them war is a tool to further a political career or agenda nothing more....and as for soldiers, I hate to say it, but to them we are just meat to through in a grinder...I have served under Both Bush president's and Clinton...Believe this..Clinton had our troops scattered across the globe and the press typed not one word of it...A republican President sends troop after Terrorists who attacked our home land and he's wrong...folks I don't think so...double standards never work. I Believe in what we are doing in Iraq...to bad liberals have to exist and try to ruin any good that can come of the war.

I heard Rush read this email today...

Every talking head is gleeful, as though they had a new toy. The patronizing of affected military families is just so sickening. The stupid questions, prompted by producers through earpieces to news-readers, is shallow and empty of any real concern for the welfare of soldiers and their family members!

Will the families ever understand that they are being USED?

I have befriended a Lt. who was also in the tent. His injuries were minor, but he saw it all. His wife is expecting their 4th child, their 1st son. Please! All good people, pray for these wonderful Americans doing a very difficult job in a very dangerous place to free some innocents who just want a life without constant fear.

I spent a little time in Israel when I was growing up, so I knew about the growing problem of extremist Islamic terrorism before September 11th. September 11th just brought a whole new dimension to it. We are at war with people who want to kill us. They are not noble or brave.

Specialist Dave truly understands the reason this war is being fought. He also understands that liberals can't seem to get it through their greedy, thick skulls.

No, I don't think they will. Just like the 911 families.

How can these people who claim to support the troops support us when they seem excited at the political opportunity this attack has given them.

There's the $64,000 question.

1) Both the letter and Rush's response to it assume that the Iraqis are responsible for the attacks on 9/11. But everyone, including the Bush Administration, agrees that whatever actual connections existed between Saddam and Al-Qaeda were trivial at best. When is that major lie ever going to be put to rest in these pages?

What Major lie are you referring to? The way I see it, the soldier's statement is nothing more than a contraction and simplification of the reason we are at war currently with terrorists.

I'm not going to mention his name, just to protect him. He doesn't ask me not to, but just to give him a zone of privacy, but he's a specialist and he's in Mosul. First name is Dave.

I'm sorry. I don't get that part.

OK First AL-Qaeda has not cornered the market in terrorism...a terrorist does not have to be a member of Al-Qaeda to be an official terrorist....Saddam was a problem that was in need of correcting..regardless of a connection or not....and is you disagree, explain why to the families of the Iraqi citizens that he had gassed or the Kurds or even our own troops from Desert Storm...remember that SO DO I!!! And I do not recall the article making any slant towards AL-Qeada... Liberals made this war political? I'm a paleoconservative, and even I know that it was Bush who wrapped himself in the flag and started beating the opposition with the flagpole after 9/11 and during the run-up to war. Libs tried pretty lamely to fight back, but they got their asses handed to them by a better politician.

Second...President Bush is a better politician because he is a man of his word...first thing I learned growing up was if a liberal is moving his lips he is lying. Further more, liberals look for a political agenda in everything; Mainly because without looking for one they have no real base to stand on. The media is using the troops? Of course they are, that is what the media does--make human suffering into entertainment. I blame them for that and many other things, but don't let their moral crapulence blind you to the other guilty parties in this tragedy.

Third if you are going to pick on a point some one makes get it right..the press is USING THE TROOPS FAMILIES...ANY QUESTIONS
