How truly pathetic. Don't look now, clo, but your personal loathing for our military is coming through loud and clear.

No, providing our military with the proper levels of manpower and matériel is how they are able to win wars for the American people. If you send the American military to do the job for which they are intended ... which is to kill America's enemies and break their ability to do us harm ... then you properly equip them to successfully complete the task. If you are going to provide half-ass support to our military in a war zone and put our military people at greater risk for your own political purposes, then instead, you need to just declare surrender and bring them all home ... BUT, be open and honest about your reasons for doing so.

snapits,

I wish he would bring all the troops home!

Have you ever heard any Lieutenant General, or any Career military want to drawdown?
This is their bread & butter & how they earn their medals.

That's why we don't give that power to the military to make these decisions, they only advise. clo
