"...secure in your Rocky Mountain hideaway sipping chablis."

I ran eighteen miles with 55 pounds in less than five hours, carrying a buddy who had a stress fracture part of the way. and a few years after that, in my thirties, twelve miles in full gear in about two hours. ...spent more than three months of my life sleeping up to an hour or two per night in holes in the dirt while the wife fooled around on me back home. What did you do for your country? And if you did anything, by what's in your reply, do you regret it?

You neocons spout the most mindless drivel about this war. Defending the constitution and our way of life? You must have zoned out during Henry Hyde's speech when he said the constitution was "obsolete" and "overtaken by events". Guess you were so busy plastering flag decals on your fleet that you missed PATRIOT Acts I and II.

Saddam has been deposed. So the "greatest threat to humanity since Adolf Hitler" is no longer an issue.

No -- repeat no -- WMD's found, even after torturing Iraqis POW's for over a year.

But what the hey? Who cares? We're not "liberating" the Iraqi people anymore, we're "kicking Arab butt"!

Don't miss the final episode of "Friends". Better get back to your big-screen TV.
