Either fight war right or bring our troops home

| April 16, 2008 9:00 PM

I watch a lot of news on TV. Day after day, our so called leaders say that Iran is supplying training, weapons, suicide bombers and IEDs to Iraq for the purpose of killing your sons and daughters. Gen. Petreaus has just said there is no doubt they are doing it. No doubt? Hey people wake up, that means that Iran is sending our troops home in body bags and or in pieces.

If there is no doubt and it is 100 percent sure Iran is doing it then what’s the problem? It’s time to serve notice on the Iranian leaders. You have 24 hours to cease and desist. If they don’t, we spank ’em hard. and we continue to spank ’em until Š

We send no troops into Iran. We do it from the air and from our subs. We take out all nuclear facilities and then we work on their leadership. The problem with it is that our own leadership doesn’t have the guts to do it. May be a different story if their sons and daughters were among the dead. When is the last time you read about a congressman or congresswoman burying their loved one who was killed in combat? Turn on the Senate channel and look at all those antiques sitting there. Half of ’em they got to prop up with sticks just to keep em from falling over.

They have been in office so long that they think they work for themselves and not for the people.

Either fight this war or bring ’em home. Period
