Oh but for the story I can tell my granddaughter when she gets old enough to ask me about this time in history. I'll be able to tell her how we had a pResident, a bad pResident btw, who stole the votes to get in the white house to start with and how he by not doing his job let one of our cities be attacked and the pentagon too and that over 3000 people died and how he started blaming a dictator in Iraq for it when every one knew better everyone throughout the whole wide world, and that there were demonstrations with millions of people out in the streets, and about that time I'm out of breath, have to pace myself I say, anyways I get my breath, but he, king george as he ultimately became known as, kept on telling everyone over and over that Iraq invaded us on that day, 9/11, telling us for weeks, months for the longest time and so well sad to say after hearing it all day every day for weeks on end some started believing it and next thing I know we are bombing, shocking an aweing, is what our military brass was calling it at the time. Oh it was something to see on cnn and msnbe all the missiles and the bombs going off it was quite a show I'll tell you that and how they thought they would be treated with flowers and candy, high fives and well just lots of jubelance which I might add never happened anyways because of this false hope they just march right on past these big assed ammo dumps, one had 382 tonns of high explosives for crying out loud, in it. Well they just went right on by without securing them and the Iraqi, after all they are being invaded don't forget, well anyway the Iraqi proceeded to clean the ammo dumps of all of the high explosives in them and have been killing our Soldiers with it ever since but no one seems to care about that little part for some reason, its very seldom mentioned anyway. After the first night of shock and awe and when the dust had cleared the next morning it was obvious to us who knew to begin with that this was wrong, we were left saying yes he is as crazy as a loon as many had been saying. Now here we are 5+ years into this War of Choice and we're killing them at about the, ah I would suspect the ratio to be a good 15 of them to one of us, pretty good odds if you happen to be us but not so good for the poor Iraqi, you remember the ones who hadn't done anything to us in the first place, yes I thought you would remember, how could one forget I sigh and briefly wonder, how can we..... Yes will I have a tell to tell
