Good grief

Jacob,

Your post is about as offensive as it gets. I posted an article in the local newspaper run on the AP wire about military morale dropping and you go off on hippies and "baby-killers."

For the record, I don't participate in anti-war protests and I don't call our good soldiers in harm's way "baby-killers" as you apparently do (you did introduce the term, not me).

My opinions are quite simple...

* Going to war in Afghanistan was the right thing to do.

* Going to war in Iraq was incredibly bad judgement, based upon bad intelligence.

* The administration has been incompetent in its handling of the Iraq war.

* Now that we're in it, the only way out is to succeed with the mission.

* I have no confidence that the current administration can figure out how to achieve this.

I'll share those opinions face to face with anyone, including the reservists I know personally who have returned from active duty in Iraq. I should note that many of those share my opinions.

Donald
