My honest thoughts.. Freedom isnt free.. and I will always say that. Now, I hate the fact that we are losing our troops.. but that is something about war that we are unable to prevent. Our men and women sign up for the military to support our country and we can not let them be let down. Sure, this is a war that many people do not agree with.. but we have to support those who are fighting in this war rather we like it or not. They did not choose to start this war, yet there are over there risking their lives to make sure that we who are on the home front are safe. I think that this war was going to happen sooner then later. After 9/11 everyone wanted war.. but now that it is taking a long course.. people are upset.. but GW Bush said from the get go that this was going to be a long war that we had to work hard on.. as it is today. So, I support our troops that are over there and I will support this war so they know they are over there for a reason.

I do understand where you are coming from. This war is hard on many people and it's taking a huge toll on many people not only the military, but the civilians as well. We are wishing for a safe and peaceful end to this war, but Im telling you.. it's pretty far away. There are tons of people out there pointing at the republicans.. but it's not only them.. the democrats are talking about sending more troops overseas as well. Right now it's hard.. but we will make it through. This war may seem pointless today, but in history.. Im sure it will mean more once we look at the big picture.
