is georgies REVENGE worth it? 36 DEAD soldiers to revenge 4 mercenaries?
and total chaos in Iraq...

IMO, it's a real bad trade...but some still like 'little georgies revenge'....

also, that mercenary company 'blackwater' should be FIRED...they are a total screw-up....don't know what they are doing, and should NOT be training any of OUR troops...obviously a bunch of FUBARs...couldn't even 'secure' themselves....

3. What responsibility do our Marines have?
To revenge or protect hired mercinaries?

7. THAT is the big question that must be asked of our elected reps

just because four mercenaries are totally incompetent, all the while BILLING our military for being 'elite' experts in security...shouldn't there be something in the contract that says: the United States Military will NOT save you....

just because these four incompetent mercenaries FUBAR, OUR military should NOT respond with REVENGE and put the security of OUR armed forces at BIG risks...DEATH....:wtf:

4. It's all about the polls.

If killing 36 troops and several hundred Iraqis makes the american public feel better about those 4 dead mercenaries, then that's all Bush cares about.

He'd nuke Texas if there were a few more million dollars in it for him.
