Too late for that, you ruined the rest of it.
I don't care what he says. I am the first gen, since my great grandfather got off that boat, to not serve this country. My dad wanted it this way for me, but I still have the utmost respect for the safety this country has because of our military.
There is a great resurgence of the Republican party in my age group(college students). John Kerry can kiss my a s s. Let's pull out just to see what happens when we do...so then something catastophic can happen. The liberals will demand that something be done only after that...like 9/11.
JVT you know that feeling of mental superiority because someone else is thinking terribly illogical?

Ok, I have no problem with that.

I highly doubt a majority of Republicans think we should get out of Iraq right now. I know I don't.
I also don't think John Kerry can kiss my a s s, but I do think he won't do half the job Bush did as far as defending this country and fighting terrorism. (if he gets elected)
And lets not get into Kerry's economic promises...

It wasn't about his thinking being 'illogical', his post was meant to piss people off and start a flamewar with absolutely zero supportive facts behind it.

Come on, John, you know that ANY good news or letters from the Middle-East is GWB propaganda and isn't to be trusted or believed!  Unless there's been a slew of bombings, dead troops or civilians killed, it just isn't NEWSWORTHY during this election year... It's getting to the point that sometimes I wonder what is more welcome to the US media; the coffins our troops get put into or the coffins we put insurgents in. Three guesses which gets 10x more airplay and put into print... Doubters, prove me wrong.

How about I type a letter from Iraq for you so that you can read the real story?
I am on government computers out here so I will limit what I say. I am going to put my stamp of approval on what this Marine has written because although I agree with most but not every bit, I don't disagree with any of it. We are tired of our own people hating us, making out like we are doing something wrong. It is a war and people are killed on both sides. Both innocents and enemy. If we did not try so hard to protect the innocents here then there would be fewer American dead I can promise you that! I just drove through some Baghdad neighborhoods this very morning not 3 hours ago on a patrol. Most of the people were happy to see us go through...some weren't. The little girls and boys on the street corners this morning, getting ready to go to school really touched my heart. You see they haven't done anything wrong and they deserve our help. I am not bullsh}tting you here, I had tears in my eyes because I haven't seen my little girl and boy since the beginning of March. I had a lump in my throat but at least I know I am doing some good here. You on the other hand are only doing ill to your fellow man with your naysaying and confrontational anti-coalition sentiment. I know you have your rights to speak and so be it. That is what I am here for. However, I and my fellow soldiers also have the right to speak and we don't like being called liars.

Wow, posts like this make me want to join the military, but the fact of the matter is I just don't have the balls to put my life on the line for my country  . I did post the letter on my dorm room door for others to read.

Hey that's ok. You probably have more fortitude than you give yourself credit for. Even if you aren't here yourself, you and others like you can do you part by staying supportive, or at least not dragging other people down like some do.
OH, and Yeah....GO TEAM!

How true. In fact, I'm going to go out start LOOKING FOR ENEMIES right NOW!!
Surely no one ever does ANYTHING to me that can't be fixed by shooting at the FIRST person I think, or randomly guess, to be the target. Especially if the President says so. Because the President is ALWAYS right and I should NEVER question ANYTHING. No no no. If I question my leadership, the terrorists have won.
