[proud American in Canada]

The saddest part is that our people in uniform have been subjected to these cynical and pernicious falsehoods day in and day out. American soldiers and Marines are out there every day in dangerous conditions and desert temperatures – conducting raids, training Iraqi forces, countering attacks, seizing weapons, and capturing killers – and back home a few opportunists are suggesting they were sent into battle for a lie

And this is the thing that bothers me most about the recent failure to fight back.

This is a great speech!

I guess it's at a private venue (?)--it would be nice to figure out a way to send a copy to the troops.

I find it totally unconscionable what has been done to our fighting men and women by the cowardly and traitorous behavior of the pols in Congress. They should be ashamed, very ashamed. They're playing with lives here, potentially millions of lives if they turn the GWOT into a cut-and-run retreat.
