I did not say I was a Bush fan... Just my thoughts as to what happened when I was in the service during the 1st Bush and through Clinton. I have a sister who is still in and go on what she has said the military is like right now!

Yes you see stories on the news about soldiers in Iraq who are not happy. But I bet you could find 2 for every 1 of those who are proud of the job they have done in liberating that country from an opressive regime that would not have ended with the death of Saddam just got worse with his sons. And not to be little our Guard since when I was Active we appreciated the sacrafices they gave for being called up, but a lot of them have a hard time dealing with the fact they leave nicely paid jobs for sucky government pay and have to split from the family life for a year or more. I give cudo points to the companies that stand by the guard members when they are called up for duty....
