Is GWB risking his life (in a way, he is, but not like the 19-year olds who are out there)?
Does GWB have military training?
Does GWB know what it's like to have to act physically (not "diplomatically") to defend one's country?

He may be "Commander in Chief," but he does not sacrifice the same things that our American troops do every day. Therefore, I can support those people and not give #$@! supporting him. I support these people--many of whom are very young and going into the military was their way out of a dead-end town or supporting a young family--because they are RISKING their lives. I will continue to speak positively about the troops, (if I was religious, I'd pray), and hope for their safe, speedy return. That is different--very different--from blindly accepting what President Bush says.

I agree with you.
