I kind of got an idea from that last post. Here is a list of things during a war.

1.If you are a member of the media, do not reveal state secrets that will get our troops killed.If you are so stupid you are not sure if your story will get troops killed, ask Tony Snow.

2.Don't go on a hunger strike, you probably will not convince the terrorists not to behead you anyway.

3. Do not offer to send the troops to Okinawa for some R& R, it's just not a good war strategy.

4. Do not constantly tell the American people about how you served in Viet Nam and then try and destroy other vets that really did fight a war in Nam.

5. Do not try and tell the American people that you support the troops but not the war. That too will do little to inspire the terrorists to put down their ied's or beheading swords.

6.Try not to stop a sitting President from intercepting intel from terrorists or those supporting the terrorists, it sort of sends the wrong message to to those who hate America even thought you may as well.

7.Try not to wear terrorists uniforms in Miami late at night and make plans to blow up buildings unless you really are qualified to do so. If you are qualified to do so, turn yourself in to the FBI immediately, it saves a lot of time.

8.Try not to voice opinions against securing your nation's border during a a time of war. The idea is to fight the terrorists on their own soil not ours.

Just a few hints for those who are not quite sure how to act when your country is at war. Those who have other ideas please join in, this is merely the tip of the iceberg which I now understand is rapidly melting and we may all flood away any minute.

Gee, rodguy911, did you have to give them a game plan of truth and supporting our side? If they did that they would be thrown out of the Democrat party!!!

Why does the wacky left, and many in the middle, not realize this? As much as they hate the President, displaying that hatred will not make ANYONE safer.

For your list:

If the Supreme Court grants Geneva Convention POW status to people who fight "unconventionally", then American forces should be allowed to fight "unconventionally" against those foes.

The first "unconvention" that springs to mind is *Take No Prisoners*

Refer all questions about this decision to the SCOTUS and the Congress.
