Well with the attention the OP-ED got here saturday night and Sunday Morning with this this diary: Sunday NY Times OP Ed by Army Sergeants in Iraq which was posted at 10 pm Saturday night long before Joe Klein or any other "talking head" made any public comments. Yes, Daily Kos was again ahead of the curve.
(I appreciate the heavy support it recieved, my troll donuts are safe for another month) But I was not disappointed by the TV talking heads tonoght, they all had pieces on it.
The worst one of course was done by Tucker Carlson and no matter how hard he tried he could not get Medal of Honor receipient Colonel Jack Jacobs to condemn the Sergeants for speaking their views. And old bow tie boy tried to, he made it plain soldiers are supposed to go to war, do their jobs and to keep their mouths shut. (Has wonder boy ever gone to war as a soldier? I doubt it) Another chicken shit er hawk heard from (fixed the link, right video now sorry)

Then there was this fine exchange on Hardball with Mike Barnicle sitting in for Chris with Jon Soltz of VoteVets who posts here frequently and Pete Hegseth of Vets for Freedom a RW group.

Then just for the hell of it here is the 1994 Cheney interview where he staes what would happen if we had taken Saddam out in the First Gulf War in 1991 and the reasons why we didn't do it. The exact same BS that is happening today and has been happening for the past 4 years. The difference was he had not yet joined PNAC and became a war hawk bent on removing Saddam from power. Enjoy if you haven't seen it yet.

As a disabled veteran I appreciate youtr support and I am sure the soldiers that wrote this Op-Ed would be proud to have your support also.
I SALUTE all of them it took big ones for them to sign this letter, they had to know the firestorm it would ignite. I am sure the Chain of Command is not publicly happy about this, hopefully they are silently supporting them.
