My younger brother is a sergeant first class who has just completed his third or fourth tour. From what I gather from him, Novak is right on point. We have a mess not just in Iraq, but also in Afghanistan.

I guess it just depends on who your relatives are. It just so happens that my family member is "currently" in Afghanistan and says that the people in that country thank him every day for the US help in fighting the terrorists. They are EAGER to have a country that is free of opressive regimes. The troops are not discouraged and the only politics that scare them are Liberal politicians who are trying to encourage the enemy.

You are flat out wrong.

well said, and it is clear we are winning in Afghanistan. I am sure RaginCajun, calling Bush a 'regime' etc ... is a liar. Look at his previous postings, he has posted notorious lies of a former Sgt Massey, who made some incredible claims that totally contradicted his real experience and locations during his tour of duty. This has been debunked elsewhere. The left has eaten up that reporting though. Now he shows up on this thread to sow more defeatism (sigh).
