I know this is off-topic but just a quick reply - this is supposed to be a 
democracy and freedom of speech and differing points of view are "legal".  And 
different points of view don't mean that one is not patriotic or that one 
doesn't support the troops.

  Kit,

  Why don't you just take advantage of another American freedom and LEAVE.  Our 
great country does not need whiners like you.  So Goodbye and good riddance.  
Perhaps Iraq needs some COs.  I bet they would treat you really good.

    Chuck,
    Don't know if you'll see this before it 
    goes to killfile...but.....I would refuse 
    to go into a battle with an enemy that 
    uses women and children for human 
    shields.   I would go to jail, first. 
    I would go to jail rather than fight 
    an unjustified war, also.   

    The above, of course, would be 
    if I were in the military as a soldier.  

    The real truth is that I would never 
    be a soldier.   If I were up for 
    conscription, I would declare CO.

    And, request (if the possiblity 
    exists) to serve my country in 
    another way.   

    For real.....
    Kit
