The gross dishonesty of the lede is this: "They" who have gone public against the war are 3 soldiers -- that's right, 3. There are 130,000 American soldiers in Iraq. You do the math.

In any combat situation since Ghengis Kahn swept down from the steppes, anyone who cannot find at least 3 soldiers who think this Mongol Horde routine is a "bad gig," just isn't trying. And ABC thinks this is news?

A more accurate measure of the opinions of the soldiers is the forums on AKO or Army Knowledge Online. There is some antiwar posters there who is in the military but they are outnumbered at least 10 to 1 IMO. You have to either be in the Army, or a civilian DA worker or a retiree to even access the site.

If you get elected to Congress and want to know what the troops are concerned about it would be a good place to learn if you can either get access as a Congressman or find someone in the Army (Active duty or Reserves) to give you access.
