Uhhh, I guess this is financially related because we won't be spending so much money on the war if we pull the troops out. So here goes...
I fully support our troops and usnavy has hit the nail on the head. I can't understand why the people who want to pull out have such short memories. 9/11 was only 5 years ago. Don't they understand that the Islamic terrorists want us dead? They don't just want to win the battle in Iraq, they want us dead. That means they will come to our soil when we leave. It's too bad that the higher ups have tied our troops hands instead of letting us fight all out like back in the WWI and WWII days. Unfortunately there's no way to win a war if it's going to be fought in a PC type of manner. If we had gone in initially and given the terrroists what they deserved as intensely as possible, there would probably be less civilian casualties than there are now with all of the bombings.
Do you remember when Bin Laden issued threats days before the last presidential election? Do you think he wanted Bush to lose because he liked the taste of Heinz ketchup? No - it's because he knew the democrats would be soft on the terrorists. No, I don't want anymore troops to die, but fighting this fight is necessary. Tell me, do you want to fight the terrorists before they get nuclear capability or after? I guarantee they won't be hesitant to use it like we are. Iran is close to getting nuclear capabilities and there is ample evidence coming out that they are very involved in the battle for Iraq by supplying insurgents with weapons and new technology. I listened to a retired green beret last night talk about a new weapon they have in Iraq - molten copper in shells that can penetrate 17" tank armor like a hot knife cutting butter.

extremely interesting and informative interview, go to
http://www.krld.com, click on "audio", then "Charley Jones Interviews". Downloads are on the left under "Recent Episodes". I don't know if the ones on the website are from last night or the ones from a month ago. He has this gentleman on every month.
It looks inevitable that a democrat will be elected president in '08. I feel sorry for where our country is headed and pray that they will not turn a blind eye to the realities of our current world. God bless us all.
