Seems to be a lot of armchair quarterbacking on the tube these days and from former military men. It's pretty disgusting to see them all dissing Franks and Rumsfeld. Hope it isn't getting back to the troops. Talk about a morale downer.

1st CAV aviation has been over there for awhile already. The rest of 1st CAV came down on orders like um..maybe 3 or 4 weeks ago.

What's the story with Fox's analyst Macinnis? He's about the most negative analyst I've seen on any of the networks. Is he legit, or way off?

All these people are so friggin smart. The same bunch of panzies were forced to eat their crap when Enduring Freedom started to pay big dividends. Same crap, different war.

I understand that if we fought dirty like Iraq is, then that takes away our moral high ground for being there. We aren't like SH, we are good guys. period. It would be nice though to just put the rules of engagement aside for oh..say...7 minutes.

Fox - Reuters dispatch from Nasiriah states Marines running convoy through city, came under fire, Marines responded with artillery and cobra 'copters. Reporter on the scene says it's to noisey to talk.

What's the difference? (seriously)

When he uses CW, the RoE are supposed to change significantly *if* we apply longstanding policy.

[Tree of Liberty]

I'm curious too. Thought they were synonymous.
