Gen. Petraeus may declare Iraq's Nineveh province safe enough for U.S. troops to pull out. Anyone seen the news today?
  • Put Gen. Jeanne Schmidt In Charge!!

    "Only cowards cut and run!!" The newest member of congress at the time, Rep. Jeanne Schmidt, said this on the floor of The House referring to Rep. Murtha advocating a re-positioning of our forces. This war needs gung ho, bellicose, belligerant people like Schmidt so why not award her an honorary commission as a four star general and put her in charge over there? (Making such awards to favored people,such as Jack Warner during World War 2, is not unusual.)
