To address the speech: 9/11 was mentioned 5 times, and terror was mentioned 34 times in the speech. I thought we already determined that 9/11 had no connections to Iraq. This is getting annoying.
"We will defend our freedom" is not a valid argument for invading a country that never attacked us.
Things have gotten aggesively worse in the last year in Iraq. One year ago the interem government was given 'power'. That governmnent is usually vacant. At any given time, there are many governmental leaders that are in other countries. At one time last year, every governmental leader was out of the country. Assasinations are up since the handover of power. The 'insurgency' (actually a rebelion by definition) has grown. All provinces of Iraq are seeing consistant attacks.
The best way to honor lives who have been lost in this struggle is to serve? Well, Mr. President, I guess we aren't above placing a millitary add in your speech. Too bad you didn't have that philosophy during the time when you were farting around when Americans were overseas fighting.
