I know exactly what you mean. They'll convey to him their deepest respect as he in turn pays his to them.

"I wish the damn libs (and RINOs) would get off his back.

That won't happen. It's up to us. He landed a short time ago. Going to lift spirits and to thank them. He's there!!.

I saw his news conference with General Myers the other day, and you could really tell he cares deeply for all the men and women in harms way.

"...the man of integrity acts on his convictions. Meanwhile, the weasel media sit in their offices and churn out anti-american propaganda."

Call me cynical, but the MSM WILL find a way to spin this and cry, "Too little, too late!"

I hate them. As my three year old used to say, "They're Poopyheads!"

RUMMY HAS MORE GUTS IN HIS LITTLE PINKY THAN HAGEL & MCLAME COMBINED!!

...and I'll add in most of the critics here on FR, as well!

No kidding. Plus, Rummy was just in Kuwait when all that other manufactured BS broke out.

Yeah, he's really been snubbing our troops, oh wait, he was in Kuwait and now Iraq.

Rummy goes to Mosul to see how the troops are

While Sen. Jon Corzine goes to Gitmo to see how the terrorists are being treated

And the Dems can't figure out what's wrong with this picture
