Well, I had just heard the US Senate and House of Reps. are trying to block Bushes plan of keeping more troops in Iraq. I'm very happy the Democrats are trying to do this. They control most of Congress so they have a good chance. This war is geting out of hand. there is no way in my mind that we will ever achieve peace in the middle east. They will always fight so I back the Democrats plan to pull more troops out. Does anyone agree with the Dems decision?
As far as the war, war sucks. However, it is an unfortunate reality of a dangerous world. If you look at statistics, it's actually safer to be a soilder in Iraq, then to roam the streets of D.C. or philadelphia or some other major U.S. cities. The murder rate for some of those is higher than the death rate of U.S. milatary. Any death is a travesty, but we should be very proud of what they are doing over there.
