78. So My Question IS
What is the US Military fighting for? Because it sure as hell isn't fighting for our freedoms, because while they die in Iraq and Afghanistan the US Congress is trying to gut the US Constitution. So far they have been pretty successful at it, with the Patriot Act, Homeland Security, Military Commission System, and the Protect America Act, and still the US Military fails to defend us from the traitors within while fighting people who with a few exceptions are really fighting for their country.

This is how Bin Laden has won, he knew what kind of man Bush was and played George like a fiddle. Our military forces are slowly being decimated, with the exception of the USN and USAF, who will eventually be providing more personnel for land operations, our creditors are getting bolder, and our adversaries, China and a resurgent Russia are becoming good friends.

The congress sells us out, the military is constanly screwed by the civilian government, and we the people will soon have no say.

If I didn't know better, I'd say that congress is intentionally stopping the troops from being withdrawn.
