"When Fallujah was being invaded in April, the Left was screaming about the civilians, the damage, and the horrible Americans wreaking carnage. We pulled out, and tried the "soft" approach."

Hand on your heart, do you really think we tries the soft approach because the "left was screaming"?

and this is just plain crappy, contemptible and pathetic:
"Why don't you just admit that the only possible thing that could happen in Iraq that would make you and a few others here happy is our miserable defeat and withdrawal?
Did you dance with the others when the helicopters full of desperate refugees flew out of Vietnam?"

Put down the Savage, Hannity, Limbaugh, Coulter and O'Reilly, stay away from the blogs. They're doing your intellect no good whatsoever.

I'm probably closer to your viewpoint than Lindy's on why we're there and why we're staying.
But I'm about as far from you as I can get in the vehemence department.
Sometimes I think that your greatest joy will not be the liberation of Iraq and a new beginning for democracy, but just so you can say "Yar boo sucks to you" to the "left".

Keep it real Tom.
