28. Need help to address then the B****** in the White House?
Cause telling the troops they are in the wrong isn't getting the message to the man in the white house who initiated and will perpetuate this ongoing war. It seems no win for the troops, with so many telling them they volunteered so do their jobs (so the rest of the country's young won't have to) and then so many telling them they are in the wrong to be fighting in this war....there must be a middle ground here someplace that gives a message to the troops that it is the CIC who is in the wrong. I don't think many of the troops that volunteered for military service, thought they were volunteering for this war. And once enlisted, with stop-loss, extended tours, second and third tours, re-activating they can't easily get out of the service...they are trapped in this vicious cycle unless they are killed, seriously maimed and there isn't much of way out.
