As the tide turns Americans/Republicans will get back on board. There is not one war in our histoir that we did not become war weary.
Pray for W and Our Troops
MUST SEE video of Sec.Def. Gates speaking at the Marine Corps Association dinner this week .. he breaks down, very emotionally describing the heroism and gallantry of Capt. Doug Zembiec (promoted to Major posthumously), the Lion of Fallujah. It’s very moving.

His whole speech is on the left just under the Pentagon Channel logo ... it’s VERY worthwhile to hear his inside the beltway/political slamming, and most especially: his assessment of the scope and nature of this WOT.
The written version is here:

Rest in peace, brave warrior. God bless and protect our awesome troops!
