Response to Now and Then @33: Many conservatives did not agree with the firing of Rumsfeld. Were there mistakes made? Yes. But mistakes are made in every war. Rumsfeld was sacrificed for political reasons and it was a dumb move by the President to try and appease the left. It did not work. As to Cheney’s Halliburtion killing military personal, please elaborate and show proof. Also show how it was Cheney’s Halliburton since the VP had nothing to do with the company while in office.

I defend the two because they are honorable men who made tough decisions. They confronted an evil that you leftists would rather ignore until it finally overwhelms us all. They faught with a military depleted in resources after 8 years of Clinton/Gore and they did a pretty good job at keeping us safe. They were not perfect but they faught the good fight. I think it is a sad commentary on our society when ankle bitters of lesser men feel free to heap scorn on them without any evidence to back up their slander. Shame on you sir.
