Yeah, I can.
"Serial lying"? Give me a break. How's about the media actually giving us the REAL story! Most Iraqi's want us to stay until they're on their feet.
I mourn the soldiers that have died there, and I do believe that they were defending freedom. I don't think their actions or deeds need to be politicized. They're doing their J-O-B! They were trained to shoot and be shot at. The military is supposed to kill and destroy. In certain circumstances even act as a police force. Everyone that raises their right hand KNOWS that!
I believe that the right thing to do is to put this all in perspective. 96 soldiers have lost their lives since the official ending of hostilities. 96! I'm old enough to remember the Vietnam MIA/KIA running tally on the evening news as a kid, and there were more than that in a day! 6000 US soldiers died taking the beaches of Normandy. Now if anybody is a betting man...they can see that 96, while it is a loss it isn't enough to warrarnt the media outcry to bring our boys home. Their job would be 1/2 over and they'd have to go back at a later date to fight a stronger opponent. Did we not learn this hard lesson in Lebanon? Did we not learn this in Somalia? Did we No, this is a jab at the President pure and simple. This is some twisted way to get revenge for "stealing" an election. Let's get past the fraud that's being perpetrated as "reporting".
