Our recruitment goals are being met. Plus, re-enlistments are through the roof. Our military personnel are awesome. How lucky we are to have such wonderful men and women. Many citizen soldiers, (National Guard), live in our local community and I keep up with quite a few of them. I can tell you that they are most displeased by the way in which the media and members of a certain party have chosen to describe their service in Iraq and Afghanistan and the fact that the good things they have accomplished rarely get reported upon.

As for this being an illegal war, jambutty......perhaps if the UN had managed to enforce even ONE of its umpteen resolutions, rather than accepting bribes from Saddam, (and they were not alone in that), the U.S. wouldn't have needed to pick-up where it left off in 1991. After what happened to us on 9/11, everything changed. We would have been foolish indeed just to sit back and not do everything we could to protect our country.
