Sniveling members for speaking the truth: that our troops have one hand tied behind their backs in fighting this war and that their leaders are inept?

I fully support and appreciate our service men and women. I do not support those who are leading them into that hellhole with no plan to do what's necessary to win. My position is NOT that of the liberals, who want to get out at all costs. I want to stay and win, but that's not happening with this bunch of baffoons!

I do not appreciate armchair generals.

We'll know soon enough, that's for certain, if the Iraq adventure is manageable. General Petraeus is executing his plan, the results are forthcoming. The real test, at the end of the day, will be the actions of the Iraqi Security Forces, and if they will be willing and or able to keep the security up, when it is completely handed over, or if they allow the Government in Iraq to collapse.
