I hear 'ya, anyone know what the next "talking points" will be from the DNC?? I heard on Tony Snow's show on Sunday, I think it was the Iraq ambassador, whining about unfair it was that we had such an advanced military and that the Iraqi army was no match for us, that there was no need for us to send in as much forces as we did, we should have made it a fairer match????? What a maroon, we haven't even thrown everything we have at them yet!

. . . we had such an advanced military and that the Iraqi army was no match for us, that there was no need for us to send in as much forces as we did . . .

The commander of the unit that is hosting Greg Kelley (FoxNews) pointed out that in most confrontations, the number of Iraqi fighters was greater or equal to the number of coalition fighters. That is, the match was not as lopsided as one might think. He went on to say that teh difference is training. Ouyr troops know how to defend each other and themselves, they have good tactical sense, etc. The Iraqis do not. That is part of why they lose. Granted, our equipment is superior too, but the match-up has not been as lopsided as the outcome would lead one to believe.
