"I am SICK of it. I am sure you are as well, I mean, wouldn't we ALL want it to be over by now? I'm not blaming ANYONE, sh*t just happens, but I am saying that if _I_ am sick of it, I can imagine a swing voter (who is not very principled) is sicker than I am, and would easily allow that to change his vote."


Did you know that in one year in just Baghdad...we renovated nearly 500 Schools?

Did you know that a company of Engineers built a 5 mile water pipeline to a farming community within sight of Baghdad that had been waiting for 33 YEARS to have water running from their taps?

Did you know that we are completely rebuilding the infrastructure of Iraq...in some cases from the ground up?

Did you know that an Artillery Battalion commander worked with the Down Syndrome society in Kansas City to supply a privately run school for children with Downs Syndrome in Baaghdad? His soldiers also helped renovate the school.

I'll just make a guess that you are totally surprised that these kinds of things and more are going on in Iraq AS WE SPEAK.

If you want to be "sick" of anything...be "sick" of the MSM purposely distorting what myself and 150,000 other soldiers are doing in Iraq on a daily basis.

Get tired of reporters only showing the carnage and NOT the good...which is by far the greater part of what is going on in Iraq.

I want it to be over when our mission over there is complete and not a minute sooner.

I do NOT want to come home for the sake of being homsick and leave people I went far away to help WITHOUT a home to go to.

If a "swing voter" is that uninformed as to what is going on in the world today that he or she will rely on the very limited news the media deigns us fit to understand and comsume...then that "swing voter" doesnt deserve the privelage IMHO.

This win was a victory FOR the MSM who subverted all the good news coming out of Iraq and a lefish ideology out of their reports

I must have missed the part about "Do you know how many terrorists we are killing, while not being accused of murder?"
