    soldiers voted for bush

    and their families also supported him.

    Bush got 80% of the votes of military families.

    so they back this war.

    these gung-ho warriors believe in bush, and he still believes in victory, so

    what is the problem?

    or is reality starting to catch up with their fantasies??

    ps- and cheney and all those other chickenhawks support the war.

    who cares if the majority of the public is against the war now, they asked for it by voting for bush

    more than once, didn't they?
