Skipper look at the byline for the 1st on - PSMNBC as Rush calls it. My son who went over the berm in 2003 and said while still in Iraq - Mom, Fallujah has been a sesspool for a long, long time, even Saddam just threw money at it - we didn’t create it and we will have a long struggle to clean it up.
Too bad that the lamestream media doesn’t want to go to the boots on the ground soldiers (unless they are defecting or whinning to come home).

In a related story, Katie Couric was interviewing a young Marine, and when she asked him “What does it feel like when you shoot a terrorist ?”, the Marine replied “recoil”.
