Whatever the cause, they made an oath to follow orders. Anybody who
doesn't is a coward and a traitor.

See above...all are cowards who don't belong in this country,

They have plenty of manpower, armour (not armor) and the intel is as intel
as their source.

 WD>>> Given the option they would never volunteer again.

 bk>  Easy to say when you are here safe and sound.

Unlike you and your ilk, I support them. I'm not advocating that they
cut and run, surrender or give the enemy the idea that the US is a
pushover and that they can defeat this country. Only the LLWWs like you
are doing that.

Then why do you and your ilk do that?

If they think we should cut and run, they're cowards.

Every soldier would like to go home, tomorrow. Survey's are as good as the
people who make them up. A survey can get any result desired when the
proper questions are asked.

Sure they did.

It's contemptable to trash our country like you do. You want the US to
lose this war, so that you can blame GWB for it. That's traitorous if I
ever saw it.
