I recall endless resolutions also. Saddam laughed at the UN as did most of the world. I remember the left saying the war would be another Vietnam. Saddam would turn loose his gasses on our troops. You know, the gasses that everyone now says, they knew he didn't have ,(BS). We won the first war, he had rules he was to follow, he ignored, taunted and ridiculed the UN inspectors.

I still believe we were right in going in there and the big picture will become clearer for you Libs,when Obama takes credit for bringing Democracy in the Middle East.

Drop by the naval Base in Newport and ask every Marine you see, and almost to a man, they will say it was most definitely worth it. Many of them have pulled 3 to 5 tours over there and still would volunteer again. So if the guys that are paying the ultimate price say it was/is worth it, I will take their word for it.

So is that why so many returning vets ran for Congress as Dems in 2006?

Just saying what I've been told during the last 3 years stationed in Newport, and I did ask a lot of those I met that had done multiple tours and they nearly all said that they wanted to continue the great work that we are doing over there. They often tell of stories of how much the locals appreciate them and how they have seen so much in improvements in the daily lives of the locals. I know a couple guys that just left on their 6th tour (volunteered on last 2). It's hard for someone to gauge success from the States, but they tell me that it is all worth it, and they do not want to quit before the job is done. Then you usually get their "grunt" followed by a "Semper Fi".
