Probably has a lot to do with sending them to wars that we at home don't
have what it takes to win.

And Monday morning quarterbacks critics that sit all comfy at their desk
at home demeaning their motives, intelligence, education and sense of
duty.

Happened before. Happening again.

Well, well, well. Nothing like going for the "easy" answers that don't
touch upon the problems of endless deployments, the lies that took them
into war, the fear of reporting they are suffering from emotional
problems, the lack of treatment available for alcohol or drug abuse.

Typical right-wing hide your head in the sand bull****.


Key operative in my statement was "And".
There are many reasons for morale going south. Extended tours, combat
experiences are major parts of it. Lack of support and critism for doing
their job by some back at home simply add salt to the wounds.

I am getting sick of your generalizations of what constitutes being
"right-wing". To you it means anyone who hasn't adopted your liberal views
and opinions. It's ironic that you think everyone else has their head
stuck in the sand. When was the last time yours saw day-light?

There are very few "back home" who criticize the troops, and who do not
support efforts to supply and pay the troops and take care of their
physical and mental needs in the field and when they return home. That's
a red herring and you know it. Support of the "mission" in Iraq and
those who came up with it is an entirely matter. Most Americans have
seen for themselves the utter stupidity and dishonesty of Bush's war
against Iraq, and many feel as if we were manipulated into it by a
scheming administration that got nothing right.

It isn't necessary to generalize as to what constitutes today's "right
wing."
