					<description>God Bless you Michael Yon, but, good luck with that.

 :arrow: "politics has frequently triumphed over truth"

The truth is over here, it is known by the powers in Washington.  It is known by the citizens who read your works also.  That has not changed anything.

The politicians will simply twist whatever they see and hear into clipped populist sound bites for their personal gains.

The real power you hold, Mr. Yon, is with the citizenry.  

WE THE PEOPLE still run this country, and when it boils down to it, the politicians have to answer to us, that is if the population would get active and demand it.

Getting wide exposure of your work along with Dollard's, Roggio's, et al. will do more good than hauling around those inbreeds from inside the beltway.</description>

					<description>Barry will never take you up on the offer. The troops would boo him out of his socks. He's completely oblivious to the facts on the ground and as long as he remains that way, he can continue to pander to his base and suck up to his media minions.

Besides, he has no balls. Admitting he is wrong would require a moral judgement which he is unprepared to make.


Besides, hamging out in a Marxist fake-Church for 20 years, has only made him the lying, truth-deficient weasel that I believe he is.

Why change now? Oops...made a pun.... :mrgreen:</description>

					<description>That is a truly generous offer that Michael Yon has made.  

"It doesn’t matter if a soldier is only twenty-something."

I have to say that the twenty-somethings that I have the honor of communicating with that have served over there are more intelligent than just about anyone I have ever had dealings with on any level and any age.  

I agree with Steve and Dan though and as usual you guys said it best!  No matter what is seen, heard and known, the truth will be skewed for political reasons.  Especially by B.O.!  B.O. is a lost cause and nothing but a direct danger to our country.</description>

					<description>"I hereby offer to accompany any Senator to Iraq, whether they are pro-or anti-war"

It is not about whether you are pro or anti war as most of the Marines that I know are ANTI-war, who really wants to get shot at, it is about whether you are pro-VICTORY or pro-DEFEAT!!

The Congress gave President Bush the authority to remove Saddam, the previous President made it policy to remove the Saddam regime, he just did not have the balls to get it done.

We the People need to change the verbage of this fight, just like the Dem's like to, I am not Pro-WAR I am however PRO-VICTORY!!

Semper Fi!!</description>
