It is not their fault that we have an imbecile Commander in Chief who refused to listen to anyone with an ounce of common sense regarding Iraq.

We cannot and will not let this Administration break out military and then blame the failure on the troops.

1. Some of our troops know we feel this way.

See:
Today, I met a soldier, just back from Iraq

<snip>

He said he's glad that people "get it this time" and don't blame the troops.

I told him, "This time, everyone knows who to blame. We've all worked at jobs where the boss was an idiot, and we had no choice but to do what were told."

2. Especially since Rummy tore up all the battle plans on Iraq - which all called
for between 300,000 and 500,000 troops to keep Iraq secure. When has that ever happened?
