Well it seems to me you are blindly supporting the illegal war criminality set fourth by a Bush Admin. ideology!

So b/c Bush and the Congress voted for an illegal Act! Every soldier in uniform who VOLUNTEERED to serve their country, should continue to follow, obey, and support an illegal act?

Once you find yourself in a War Zone.....it maybe a little too late to disobey an unlawful order b/c sometime the lives of your buddies are on the line. However, when the dust all settles....guess what! You still followed an illegal order!

Our military is controlled and led by the Civilian Segment of our Country, and rightfully so, I mean afterall we do not want to see America ran by military juntas' or dictators, however, we as private citizens and as military members both active, reserve, guard, vets, and retired vets have every right to hold our Civilian Govt accountable for their actions and acts of lawlessness
