Five Years Ago

"Major combat operations in Iraq have ended. In the battle of Iraq, the United States and our allies have prevailed. And now our coalition is engaged in securing and reconstructing that country."

Geez, Bob -- can you just imagine how many more americans would have died if we were still involved in "Major combat operations"???? I guess it's a great consolation to the families if the nearly 3,950 soldiers who have died, that their loved ones died in "minor combat operations".......

It's just so tragic to know there's still people who think we need to continue letting our brave soldiers die for what was always a pointless war. I don't know why we let GWB away with this madness for so long.
