We are in a fight for our lives and our civilization against Islamic Fundamentalists.  Our President Bush is fighting the right war in Iraq.  Thank God for the brave men and women in our armed forces who are willing to fight for our freedom.  It is sad to see the "politically correct" Generals in the Pentagon who have set "rules of engagement" that hinder the battle.  It is time to push for VICTORY with our new General in Iraq.  Iran will be our next battle.

Wow! Iran is our next battle? You support invading other countries because of religious beliefs? You say our freedoms are beings fought for in Iraq. What freedom is that? The freedom to invade soveriegn nations? The freedom of cheaper oil? The freedom for military contracted corporations to make billions of our tax dollars? The freedom for our President to take away our Constitutional rights? In past world wars where there was a tangible enemy and national agreement to sacrifice our standard of living through rationing and the purchase of war bonds. This war on terror is encouraging us to consume more. Bush told us not to worry about conserving fuel. He said act like life is normal. Just make sure to call the government if any of your neighbors are doing something suspicious. I wonder what your neighbors are saying about you. It doesn't matter if they are lies are not. The Patriot Act allows the government to arrest and seize property without Constitutional rights. How can you prove that your neighbors are lying if you have no day in court? How can you prove your innocence if you are arrested and possessions confiscated, but there is no trial by a jury of your peers? I don't understand how people think our freedoms are at risk in Iraq when they are surely endangered in our own country.

Obviously you hav'nt paid any attention to the history of ALL imperialist nations. THEY ALL FALL!!!!!!! I'll say it again....... They all fall....... not some..... all of them! Are you really that determined to send the children, grandchildren, and great grandchildren to certain demise? Please read your history before you make such claims........ America depends on you to do so, otherwise we're doomed. You want to secure our future? Stop using oil!!!!! Every single drop you buy is another dollar to the terrorist. I'll say that again because folks like yourself REALLY NEED to UNDERSTAND. EVERY GALLON of GAS YOU BUY SUPPORTS the BAD GUYS....... THE TERRORISTS!!!!!! Funny how it also makes Bush richer as well....... do us all a favor and pay attention to the truth...... we are fighting for oil, NOT FREEDOM. pickerman
