Kendall, Not sure what you want to hear.What say I now, I read the post. I agree with it. We have never fought a war like this... it will be prolonged. It will be bloody. What's your point? Does it lesson my backing of the president? Does it lesson my resolve to support the government and it's use of the military?
No....
And before anyone starts talking about how different I would feel if I had to be the one to fight. This fight, will be fought here. Not by armies, but by a handful of people that will kill citizens. On my way to work I pass by many 'targets' 2 Airports, One shipping port, one major hospital, McDill airforce base, and two power plants. Am I worried? Yes. Does that fear errode my confidence in our government and our military? No. I will fear, but I will not change my resolve. Sorry if you think that it would Kendall. I'm no war monger, I am very afraid. But I will not let fear win out in the end. I just hope, I pray, that if this turns into a war. America's resolve will remain strong. That we will not betray those soldiers that fight for us. And they do fight for all of us, even those that don't want to fight. That is why I respect thier job, and hope we never see the citizens of this country ever turn thier back on them like they have in the past. And if that makes me a War Monger, then I suppose that is what I am. But I will be a man proud of the soldiers, a warmonger that will gladly applaud them for the sacrifices they are willing to make, that so many of us (Including myself) can't and won't make. I owe them that much.
Love, hugs and kisses....
Just a War Monger.
