Thanks, will do. He came back from the first tour in January. Lots of things have changed since then.

I wonder what all sorts of dogs they breed in Iraq.

Mutts. Good old-fashioned mutts (at least the one that they gave them was). LOL. I wish that I could remember the details of the story. It was really cute. Basically, some of the locals asked what our boys missed the most about being home. Much to their mothers' consternation, a lot of guys said "my dog(s)". So, they brought the unit a puppy.

What goes around...

I am moved more by this story and others like it--such as the 90-year-old who anonymously gave $1200 in Euros as his thanks for liberation from a WWII concentration camp--than by all the hysterical ravings of the left, the MSM, Geraldo, and Sheppard Smith combined.

We Americans are the ones in the white hats; never forget it, and never back down!

Alright!

Ever wonder why the MSM isn't reporting polling data from Iraqis (which they surely have)? It's because GW's approval rating is over 90%, that's why.

That is very impressive. I wish we could send our thanks.

I'm sure this courtesy has been delivered by OUR armed forces.
