Republican in Name Only because one has to be registered to vote in the primaries. Too much of a conservative libertarian to be a Republcan and never, ever a koolaid drinker.
Greetings from Iraq from an Expat contractor (2003-2005).
So I had to adjust my 12 month plan. Whatcha gonna do about it, send me to the mideast?

8 months down 12 more to go.
Make that 9 down, 11 more to go.
And what has (Operation) Santa Claws done around Baghdad? He brings Peace through Superior Firepower!
10 down, 10 to go...halfway point!
Crossed the 12 month mark...whew! Tax relief!!
Ahhh, 13 months done.
14 down! Looking for BFPU...ah, there it is! Summer is fast approaching.
16 behind me now. Can I make it through another summer?
17 down...Man, it's hot! 120*F in the shade..What? There ain't no shade here!
19 months behind me now...what to do next? The weather is cooling off, but not the political climate. Still hard to get things done.
Rockets and mortars and bombs...Oh my!
Ok, 22 months down. How many more to go? Don't know. But hey, what could possibly happen?
23 down...gotta get a break soon..
24 and OUT! I'm home now.
My favorite quote:
...yeah, right, sure it is...

Been to Baghdad, BIAP, Palace Complex, Victory, Green Zone, Balad, Tikrit, Taji, Fallujah, Ramadi, Al Qaim...Tampa, Mobile, Uranium, Sword....soft SUV's, 5 ton, 60's, 47's, 53's, 130's...
Had a front row seat for the Battle of Fallujah...The Sunni Triangle? Yeah, I've made the drive more than once.
