I find it still to be about the same attitude here.

Personally I just don't think that Americans have the stomach anymore. Something about how we were raised and spoon fed everything has caused us to...well, be sissys.

I don't know anyone with even the slightest bit of intelligence that expected the war in Iraq to be over in just a few short years. It's going to take time to rebuild a country, especially one that was a demolished as Iraq.

I think that it is also part of the media's fault. They concentrate on all the negative stuff instead of the improvements. I mean the number of troops we lost really isn't that many compared to all the men and women over there. People also have to realize that the men and women in the service chose to be there, and accepted that they may give their life for their country.
