Now, if you know me and we've discussed politics, you know that I am an Independant and I don't always fall along the same red state views of my elephant friends. Yet, one of them had this article on their blog, and I thought it was a really good read. I encourage you guys to read it and see the opinions of the troops and other people that are actually in Iraq right now. You can read about this here. It's rather long, but definitely worth the time to read.
