This is entirely CLinton’s fault

Is President Bush not responsible for the last six years?

Boy, I have to say that after reading some of the cavalier statements about having troops’ tours extended by 3 months being “no big deal”, I’m a little taken aback.

We want to win this war and support the President’s iniatives. We want our troops to get the support and funding that they need, despite the anti American leftists in Congress as well. But I don’t think our troops would appreciate the cavalier attitudes. They are sacrificing their lives and limbs, sometimes their ability to think. They are sacrificing their time with their children and families. Perhaps strategy wise it is the precisely correct thing to do. However, remember that these volunteers are people too...spending 25% more time in a tough counterinsurgency war will see people who were coming back whole and alive - instead comeback maimed and dead. No small deal in my opinion.
