People talk about supporting US soldiers in Iraq and then blindly support the decisions of our leaders with regards to Iraqi operations. These soldiers are providing the ultimate sacrafice for our country, and still some can't even do them the respect to legitamize the reason behind their risk.
If you're going to tell a soldier to go die for his country, at least be able to assure him that his death is not in vain. For a supported of US soldiers not to question our position in Iraq, and not to acknowledge that there is some ambiguity there, given that Iraq had no weapons of mass destruction and no ties to terrorists is irresponsible of the conservative just as it would be irresponsible of a liberal if a democrat were in office.
Personally, i don't want to see our soldiers die for reasons that Bush has admitted "were mistakes." You just can't ask people to die for one man's mistakes, it doesn't matter if you're a democrat or a republican.
