Well, I think we are all very proud of the way our troops, military and leadership have done in this conflict. Those protestors as much as I wanted to drive bye and spray them with one of our High pressure Hot water units with 210 degree water at 3300 PSI. All I can say in observation now is thank god we live in a country that they are allowed to protest in the first place. Any other country they would have been arrested, disappear or been shot. It is wonderful that the protestors are allowed to speak their mind, but what a travesty that anyone, any real American would actually do it. They are able to protest in freedom from harm becauise of the exact actions we are doing now in Iraq. What they fail to realize is that if anyone in Iraq during Saddam's Regime were to do that, they would have been tortured, killed or simply vanished. These protestors were condemning the actions taking place today in the World, those same actions yesterday allowed them the freedom to protest in the first place. If it were not for the strength of this nation and our ancestors and families who have given so much for this gift, we would all be speaking German today. We are free in the greatest nation in the world, no one can debate that and still we see such obvious disregard for everything we hold dear. With regards to the looters? They are blowing off steam, having been repressed for most all their lives. How would you feel after not being able to show your anguish and living in fear and watching family and friends, tortured killed, raped and gased? Think about it, wouldn't you want a piece of what is rightfully yours back. We own our government, we are the government. They will soon realize that this gift also comes with responsibility, give it time, you watch. We have liberated yet another country out of the goodness of our American Spirit in the name of liberty and our country has sacrificed 107 lives to do it and the British 30 plus. We give our blood so others can live free. This is a great nation. The fact that we have our own businesses and can pursue our American Dream and happiness is all the proof in the world to me, but each American has their own proof as we are all free. Maybe I should have sprayed those protestors as part of my free speech, but this is better. "WE TOLD YOU SO!" I hope they had fun acting out at the expense of all of us. But they could not beak us, we were never divided, we never stopped, faltered or looked back, the men and women knew what they had to do and by god they got it done. I hope the protestors learned a valuable lesson this time and I hope they will not return to the streets in protest soon. I hope they learned that Freedom is not free, it comes with a high price tag. Freedom is an ongoing event. For us or any other Nation. Nothing good in life is easy they say and that cliche rings true today more than ever. History will show we did the right thing, for the right reasons and with the right partners and fellow nations. The world still needs fixing, but wow, what a statement we have made for the betterment of mankind and future of the World. A message has been sent loud and clear to any future dictator or hostile anti-human rights government, the human race is going to fix the problems of the world and work together towards the common good. We can, we did, we will, we must. This is a great day in the history of our species, we watched it in the making and added another notch in the on-going struggle of good VS evil. This time sound and fury did signify something and that something is Liberty and Freedom and those shots were heard around the world. Thank you to all Americans who have served in any capacity, has family serving now or family who has served and/or given the ultimate sacrifice. God Bless our Troops, Leadership and God Bless America. I cannot tell you how happy I am and how proud I am of this country and it's people. WOW, what an awesome thing we have done for all humanity, when others wouldn't go, for what ever reason which we will not discuss here. We along with other great nations in the name of all that is good against all that our modern world calls evil, we stood tall and in the face of adversity, made things right. Just think what we have done. Yes we feel for the families of the 107 lost military personel, but they did not die in vain. They fought for the freedom of a people who did not know freedom. Spread the Word, the world is a big place and we are not done yet.
