    Do I support the war? it's not my choice...it's my job, I do what has to be done, those who have lost their lives in the war, signed the same papers as me...and we were not forced to join, they did and served with what they thought was right.

    When i said you, I wasn't pointing you out. I support you and anyone else in our armed forces. I fucking despise the war in Iraq.... period. I am sorry for your losses also, but don't talk down to me and make it a contest of who has lost the most loved ones in the war, that shit is weak.The bottom line is we shouldn't have lost them.

    your original comment looked directed at me, and I'm just really tired of liberal media and their blasting of our troops, and I'm done with everyone who doesnt know a damn thing saying fuck the troops, and fuck the govt, and all that jazz.

    At this point, we've all lost someone...but everyone is really quick to place blame. You know, I get upset when I hear about one of my buddies dying, but what gets me more upset is when I have to see my other buddies having to go back for the 2nd or 3rd time...but what makes me proud to be a soldier, and proud to know that they are truly good people, they go back and they dont complain, they suck it up and know their role in the war is just another stepping stone in restoring somekind of order in the middle east.

    I dont want to get into a debate about how many people we know over there or who we know has passed. So I apologize for talking down to you.

    I wish all people would understand this...you do not have to like what the troops are doing, but support them because they are American's just like you and me, and they have families and loved ones too who they left behind to fight a war, it's their sacrifice and nothing is worse to a soldier than to be ashamed when they come home after a year long deployment to think everything they have done is pointless.

    Like I said, I have nothing but respect and support for our armed forces. My hat is off to everyone serving our country. I just don't agree that our military should still be in Iraq. Simply put. It's been a long war and it is time to bring them home.
