I was reading a memoir from the period not too long ago and noted that the author was encouraged to desert his militia post by his Federalist friends (he was a Federalist at the time, but seems to have altered his views rather radically by the time he wrote). Incidently, the collapse of the Federalist party is tied pretty closely to the fact we managed to pull off a few few clear victories right at the end and achieve a draw rather than a defeat... #26

Seriously, we have added school openings to our mission-set recently, though. You have no idea how awesome it is to see a bunch of "trained killers" standing around, playing with the kids. We distro backpacks, pens, notebooks, stuffed animals, soccer balls (the overwhelming favorite). Some of my most treasured photos are from these days, though I do not have any nearly as poignant as the one accompanying this article. (That is why I am not a photo-journalist!) Boomer

Something like, <blockquote>“While they scrutinized and argued, in the end, many Democrats voted in favor of funding the surge. Americans asked Congress to force a change to the war and the surge was the change we all agreed to. Let us ALL hope that the surge can have a continued and lasting effect for the Iraqi people and allow us to bring our troops home in the wake of peace.”</blockquote> This might help get more support for the war and finally allow us to see a united front. This would surely be a significant blow to our enemy’s morale. Republicans should mention that the Democrats in Congress deserve some credit for the surge.

Lost it for whom?

I agree with AJ:

“The eyes have it” photo is better than a thousand words.

Then I would like that to be presented to them and let it be a way for them to see what the Iraqi people think. Not that it would matter much to them. But it would be amusing to me..grins.
