This is the rationalization of a coward.

Doesn't Congress alone have the power to declare war on "60 Minutes"?
Oh I'm sure 60 Minutes will balance it with other soldiers who disagree. /s
This could be 5 active duty and 995 ready reservists who have been out of the service for 25 years. Let's see a list of these quislings.
Congressmen are not our leaders. They are our representatives.
1,000 out of more than 2 million. Bet SeeBS doesn't put it in that kind of context.
They talked to a couple in the article, but it's likely going to be 30 seconds versus 18 minutes. Yeah, that's fair.
As far as the Marine Sgt. who said, "Just because we volunteered for the military doesn't mean we volunteered to put our lives in unnecessary harm and to carry out missions that are illogical and immoral." makes me wonder 1--how he ever became a Marine, 2--ever became an NCO.
Makes me wanna puke, actually.
And I love how they paint this guy Hutto (no-load POS) as an Iraq vet when I'm pretty darned sure he never stepped foot on the sandbox or heard a shot fired in anger, rather he sat his happy little butt off the coast drinking coffee and griping that the A/C wasn't on high enough in his bunk.
Can they do this?
Sparky is there anything miltary could do these bozos
Like talk crap might give you dishonorable discharge or something
Well, at least this soldier gets it....
"Army Capt. Lawrence Nunn, "I know what I'm here fighting for, to give the Iraqi people some democracy and hope, so I am 100 percent behind this mission. You don't sign up to pick which war you go to."
This is the rationalization of a coward.
Let me guess, Lt. Ehren Watada's boys?
Where is the interviews with the record number of reenlistment Troops and their desire to see this through to the finish?
THIS CAN NOT STAND!
Here's their website, where they now claim 1278 members:

Oh, and guess what? Looky at who is "sponsoring" them!!!
Iraq Veterans Against the War (IVAW)
Military Families Speak Out
Veterans For Peace

Isn't MFSO one of Sheehag's groups?
Or a spoiled child. Or a traitor.
With 2.5 Million Active Duty, Reservist and National guard, this 1000 Traitors represent
.0004 % !!!!!!!
of our military.
THAT IS WHAT I CONSIDER NEWS!!!!!!!
Put all of them in leavenworth.
"If he'd known the United States was going to invade Iraq, U.S. Marine Corps Sgt. Liam Madden says he probably wouldn't have enlisted a month before. Still, he has no regrets."
Sure he doesn't.
If he has 'no regrets' then why the petition?
Wait a sec--this guy enlisted in February of 2003? NOT KNOWING if we could be going to Iraq?
Wow--the smell of BS in the morning can knock out a friggin buzzard from a mile upwind.
