I'm getting deployed so its time to dive as much as possible
« on: December 04, 2007, 12:35:01 AM »
I just got the alert notice today, so I'm going to try and dive as MUCH as possible before I have to go back to iraq.  Anyone wanting to hit up gulf shores or destin one weekend let me know, because with my military ID I can get a room on base for 50 bucks verus' 150 a night
I'm not crazy I"m narced!

We can only hope we don't get someone in there that abhors the military, socialist in thought, and we end up not having to deploy because the muslims already have plans that by 2050, this will be the Islamic nation of the Americas.  If the last Clinton that was in office had done his job, we wouldn't be in Afganistan.  If the other Bush had done his job, we wouldn't be in Irag by now instead of stopping the tanks 100 miles from Baghdad in 91.  CIA had Bin Laden in the sights with a drone and hell cats and Clinton said no, then turned down the offer by Sudan to give him to us.  Yep, you might not have to deploy with over 2 million Muslims already in this country just biding their time.  Do not believe that just because someone pulls our troops out of Iraq, the war will be over guys.  Just the location of the battles.  Most of the soldiers I know want to carry this fight now, and not have their children go and fight it.

Well said Don. I don't know why more Americans and the news media don't get it. We have to win in Iraq.
