I have always found Plato's the Republic interesting.
In it he basically says all things being equal in a republic, when decision must be made on a subject and it is decided, even if you are a part of the opposing side, you need to rally behind the decision for the great good of the republic.

I have friends over there, a cousin who is a brand new father and has yet to see his son, people that I love, and yet I know that they are there for a reason.

I was watching MTV a few weeks ago and the did a really good True Life about the situation with Iraq and talked to some teenagers and they started in on September 11th and these two teenagers, like 11 and 15 said that the people in the twin towers DESERVED to die! HONESTLY!

SO I find it hard to have pity on people who want innocent men, women and children to die. I know that they do not know any better about America because their media is government controlled and tells them how horrible we are, but seriously!

I don't want the men and women I love over there fighting this battle, but I know it must be done, I know that Saddam will never stop backing Al Queda and attacks against American and it's allies. So if the job must be done, let's get in there, make it fast and do it right. And Saddam should not walk away from this one.

Please bring my Eric Luckett back to me safely!
