26. Cannon fodder ..
There is no need to train Cannon Fodder. What they need in Iraq is warm bodies in boots.

The resistance is poorly equipped, barely trained and hopelessly outnumbered. They have us pinned down.


One thing you forget is that the conservatives NEVER forgave the left for their anti-war activities. They felt we were "holding back" They felt if we unleashed the full might of America we could have won that war.

Well, you can't "save" someone by killing them. However, if you listen to the hate wing radio people, you will find out that they're advocating wholesale murder and slaughter to get Iraq under control. All in the name of "helping" the Iraqi people.

You cannot IMPOSE a democracy on a society. It is counter-intuitive.
