you make people feel patriotic. how do you do that? lots of history references.
| quote: | Rumsfeld said this has been true throughout American history. "We know that this has been true in the Revolutionary War. We know it was true in the Civil War. We know it was true in World War II and World War II," he said. "If all people know is what they see on television or read in the press -- the negatives," he explained, then they don't see the progress that is being made.

Cheney, Rice, and Bush in his speech tonight have all been very keen on American history references |

All we need now is MTV to do a reality show in Iraq.
Call it Surreal Life Baghdad or Real World al-Basrah or Road Rules Tikrit.
Too coincidental if you ask me. A TV series in time for Americans questioning why we are in Iraq. Too timely.
All it took for the dog to salivate was to ring the bell.
Go figure. |

| You think support is bad now.........Just wait in two years when US troops are still in Iraq providing security because the Iraqi army is still not ready to do the job themselves. |

According to US army figures, out of the 4,000 men of the 256th Brigade Combat Team, 53 faced alcohol-related charges and 48 were charged with drug offences.
Since the overthrow of Saddam's regime the borders that have been so porous for insurgents have been equally open for heroin and hash smugglers from Afghanistan and Iran providing a cheap market for troops. With colleagues being killed or wounded on a daily basis, some US soldiers have turned to drugs to escape the horrors of fighting insurgents.
Stressed US troops in Iraq 'turning to drugs'
That is the part of the show that Steven Bochco won't show you. |
