Thanks for posting this SandRat. This shows the people that won't listen that our people that are in country have gotten the job done training the Iraqis. I know they aren't done yet though those "Cut and Run Idiots" can shove off. God Bless ALL of our people that are in Iraq.

WOW, good news from Iraq! Just after the election in which the democrats took power. Great back drop for the Dems' (good news from Iraq) when the Dems' start their cut and running from Iraq policy, with the support and encouragement from the MSM.

Oh yeah, sure...the old "blame it on the crazy dachshund excuse".

You can't pull that with a 4 pound Yorkie.

At the slow rate we're killing "insurgents" - all Iraqi civilians will have been killed by the time we've killed 20% of the "insurgents"..

Perhaps the Democrats will see it in their interest to earn a reputation as "War Winners" and start killing Islamists on a scale that SHOULD have been going on for the past 3 years..

Hope springs eternal.

Rumor has it that the Ted Kennedy has been receiving Gov.funding for a top secret training center in Provincetown Mass. where some of the truly brightest liberals in the country have received grants to work on a program that promises some day.... pigs will fly.

Plug in Vietnamese instead of Iraqi terms and place names, then holler "Woooo hoooo!"

Every time Ted (the swimmer)Kennedy flies ---- a pig IS flying..

Yeah, I know --- waiting for this crop of leftists who call themselves Democrats to pursue the war with vigor is insanely optimistic.....or delusional.

I just desperately want SOMEONE to fight this as a WAR, not a political side show.....with false "allies"..

Unless we get hit again, here, with at least thousands of CIVILIANS killed, I'm afraid it's too late. I'm not trying to be a smart ass. This is the second time in my lifetime that the troops have been betrayed from within their own country...I'm beginning to believe that what ever happens, we deserve it.

I share some of your memories...

Some in America "deserve" what is happening....but our warriors, their families and our grandchildren don't...

It's times like this -- that make what the Iraqi are doing to their "internal enemies" understandable.

I guess we're still too damned civilized to execute our own "internal enemies".

Since civilization is a very thin veneer - perhaps it won't take too much more before some folks in this country decide to "make some bones" of their own...

"I guess we're still too damned civilized to execute our own "internal enemies".

Or at least hold them accountable for damage and loss of life their aiding and abetting causes, all so they can invalidate their opponents and take control of committees. I was hoping in my lifetime to see that we had become too damn civilized to stab our own protectors and defenders in the back.

We're both old enough, seen enough and already betrayed once -- so we should know that the lowest forms of life on the planet are ignorant leftists and the politicians they elect...

America, Mark Twain once said, is a nation without a distinct criminal class "with the possible exception of Congress."

Well, times have changed, Mark Twain would certainly add our leftist lunatic "Educators", "Journalists", perpetual "victims" and welfare leaches...

If the Democrats perform too stupidly, they will be held to blame in 2008 if the Nation suffers another hit, Military re-enlistments/recruiting implodes or the Islamists get emboldened by the wimpy Democrats at the reins.

I was waching the Bridge at Dong Ha tonight on Fox.
Brought back memories of the tour I served there in 68.
Enough ......

Best of luck,

Oh, I spent time in the field with the 9th ID and the 2ID. So why are you shucking on expressing a little gratitude that there is still some good news coming from Iraq?
