Rummy,soldiers don't quit cause they're fighting to support their buddies
Edited on Thu Aug-04-05 02:36 PM by flpoljunkie
in arms--not because they believe in this futile "Occupation of Iraq." And yet you use this loyalty to their fellow soldiers to preen on national television and tell stories of soldiers who "won't quit" in the face of the latest tragedy in Iraq--the deaths of 20 Ohio Marines in just two days.

Well, shame on you and your delusional neocon cabal who got us into this mess in Iraq and continue to decimate our Army and Marines in this ill thought out occupation of Iraq.

That's right, it is an OCCUPATION, not a war--and that is the problem. It will not work.

Have you no sense of honor, Rummy? I think not, or you would have resigned a long time ago.

I must ad this, just now hearing Dubya's response from his "ranch" in Crawford. No, Mr. Bush, "staying on the offense" would have required you to stay "on the hunt" to "kill or capture Osama bin Laden"--not detour us into an unending and disastrous Occupation of Iraq.
