Throughout this whole thread, you have refused to discuss the issue.

The issue is whether Rumsfeld's attempt to conduct cheaper wars is causing problems like this. The fact that Rumsfeld is trying to make US warfare cheaper and use fewer troops is not disputed by anyone. Several high-profile generals have disputed his policies publicly, and rumsfeld has defended himself publicly.

These reservists were apparently on an assignment they shouldn't have been assigned, doing something they weren't trained for. Something tragic happened, and I'm interested in discussing the event in the context of Rumsfeld's new way of conducting war.

If you don't want to join that conversation, then frankly I have no interest in hearing you spout off "all you liberals" this or that.
