All I can say everytime I hear of one of our soldiers dying in Iraq is "way to go Bush!" I hope our next president has brains enough to get our guys out of Iraq and brains enough to make sure our intelligence agencies actually do have brains instead of making up myths about weapons of mass destruction. My thoughts and prayers go out to all of these soldiers and their families. God Bless!
