Imagine that

It is so amazing to hear the news media today, and to listen to the veep as they are all celebrating the success in Iraq. It is so amazing that after all the pissing and moaning these past few years that it is a success. I remember leaving there 4 years ago, and coming home to have people tell me what a terrible waste it was and we shouldn't be there. According to those same candy-ass reporters then the only thing that could save the war was a miracle from God on high. All it really needed was for the politicians to shut the hell up and let General Petraeus kick ass like we needed too.

All these reporters and politicians did nothing but get in the damned way of the military. All they had to do was "Cry Havoc" and let slip the Dogs of War. We knew what the hell we were doing and we did the best damned job we could and that anyone could ask. Especially when you consider we had to deal with private contractors getting in the way and even treating us as if we were the enemy.

So for all the blood we shed and the men and women we lost; you're welcome there Mr, Prez. Now stay the hell out of the way in Afghanistan and let them do their job so they can get it done and get on home ASAP.
