For Their Valorous Duty Behind Enemy Lines...
Bush made his Medal of Freedom picks. His were clearly closely allied henchmen in his neocon revolution.

I thought I'd offer up my own. Two men who truly did battle in the belly of the beast.

If you were to pick someone to receive the honor who would you nominate? Any other suggestions from the masses?

2. Absolutely...
I thought hard about making it a three celled graphic with the troops as the additional image. I ran into a problem in how to depict the so many who are serving, have been wounded and have been killed.

They are the ones that really DESERVE it. Certainly not the ones that sent them there to eliminate weapons that didn't exist and have mismanaged them ever since.

Thanks for the links. I will be updating the links page at my site and will add them today.
DA

p.s. If anyone has other suggestions for good links to add, please let me know.
