3. I have been predicting this for the last month or so...

(I don't mean this in a gloating way)

The Iraqi soldiers are biding their time to hook up with their tribes or with Iranians if that should come...

Our soldiers are sitting ducks...they don't know who to trust...it's a no win situation.....

Get them out now....

4. You were right. Thanks, I guess.

Our soldiers are indeed sitting ducks. My God, we need leadership. I can't take this anymore. My job prevents me from demonstrating, and I am old. Do I give up all, or do I throw caution to the wind? I am not yet ready to make that decision. Others depend upon me.

5. I am sorry...I didn't mean it as gloating...I was hoping that it

wouldn't come true....The whole debacle is playing out and our soldiers are in a Vietnamesque situation...

I despise the * cabal...and what they have done to our proud military men and women and I despise them for what they have done to this country...every day...another revelation of how despicable this administration is...

Don't give up...I am not going to give up...You and I and everyone that is fighting against the Treasonous power in our own ways...we will win...it's just that we don't know how and we don't know when....

Fight the Power and stay strong:grouphug:
