| Wow……..what a hornets nest…….
I post some stats, with an explanation of why numbers are not important, and somehow I dishonor and diminish the troops. This coming from someone, IMHO, that does the same damn thing every time they open their mouth on this subject. Especially when it is referred to as Bush’s war. Probably also from someone who has never worn a uniform outside of a McDonald’s one.
I guess if one thinks of a threat merely in terms of death and destruction they can inflict……Saddam was not one. I agree, on a scale of 1 to 10 he ranked around 3 in that area. Unfortunately Iran ranks higher. If they were to control the oil, the damage to not only us but the world would be hard to fathom. Bush has done what every politician since WW2 has done….let public opinion dictate how to run a military situation. I agree that it should have been handled better, I agree that it is a mess, I even agree that Afghanistan should be handled better.
