The 75% that he's talking about are 741 out of 988 of those polled. There
are at least 125,000 troops there. Of the 988 who were polled, 741 of them
must be Democrats. So, there are 741 Democrats in the ranks who're scared
shitless and want to go home.

 BK>   Why do you demean out troops in the field so?

Just the democrats, Bob.

 BK>  Why do you stand with an administration whose policy is "send
 BK>  our men to bleed and die for political advantage"?

That is the Hilleray, Kerry and Klahn way? Cut and run chickens.
