Another fine, riveting post Dio - thanks for the ping. Sure wouldn't want to be one of those Iraqis sitting in a T-72 right about now!

the only quagmire is the one the left finds itself. Every anti-USA item ever stated has been proven wrong. The embeded roporters have shown the real face of war and so the left can't even use that against us. (ie. civilians committing suicide by checkpoint)

The DNC is in big trouble.
