Too little too late. My friend died in Iraq in 07, something that shouldn't of happened. Makes me mad that people wave the flag at the troops just as eagerly as they send them off to a criminal war. Another friend who served in Iraq in 07 is now in Afghanistan, I wonder when these petulant first term so-called conservatives will do anything to end that war.
