Oh I'm sure 60 Minutes will balance it with other soldiers who disagree. /s

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.

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."

From the article: "Said another serviceman in Iraq, 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.'"
