Not Popular But--- What would you do??

I stand continually amazed at how our President is bashed over and over and over again. I'll be the first to admit that I don't agree with every decision he has made, but I do think that he has this countries best interest at heart.

We're caught in a media frenzy that loves to bash the President. You can look at things however you like, but we have to go back to 911. What would you do? We've been threatened for years, and here is a country with a leader who has already unleashed on his own people. I don't like war, but ---- and that's a big but--- if not war then what's the cost?

We've lost better than 3000 troops in Iraq- and this is a terrible tragedy- but it's war. I wished this were a perfect world- but its not. Terrorist brought the war to our front door, and like it or not there are more out there, who are ready to blow us to bits- in the name of some foreign god.
We have an all Volunteer Military--who when asked most would tell you, they support their President. Ask the military, and they'll tell you, we need more troops to gain some stability, so when ground is cleared, we have troops there to maintain that stability.

Was our President and leaders to ignore the tragedy? Are we to just quit, because the going is tough? Those that are ready to just quit, and lay back, I ask you this as a Peaceful man---- Do you think that the enemy is going to lay back and quit? They are bold in what they say, they're gunning for us- they believe that they are doing it on the behalf of their god. They'll strap a bomb on, and blow up themselves along with everyone around them, to hurt or cripple this country of ours.

I support you Mr. President, and I still respect the position you hold. Our prayers are with you.

The enemy isn't our President-- it's those who have this Country in their sites- and if I have the choice, I'd rather the war be on their soil than on ours.
