At this point, reguardless if you think the war was needed or not is a moot point, the US has a moral obligation to the people of Iraq. You may not have approved of the war but it happened, you can't take it back, and advocating anything but victory at this point will harm the US both directly and indirectly. This is why such 'supporters' have their patriotism questioned. With friends like that, the enemy is half way to victory already.,

Ok I think I understand what you are saying and agree with some of it too.
My question is at what point can we tell the President (he's CiC, he gets the grief) to stop doign stupid shit with the military?
Do we have to wait until Iraq is COMPLETELY finished (great well my grandchildren can tell him)? Or do we wait until the Army actually is stretched too thin (I don't think it is yet, but we do seem to be heading that way)?
At some point critisism has to acknowledged and considered. And I do mean constructive critisism not pointless bitching.
For the record, my opinions:
Afgan - Good move (except we didn't FINISH)
Iraq - could've been a good move in time after Afgan was finished and if the ENTIRE Iraq occursion had been considered.
