    no, im asking why its ok for then governor bush and the republicans to undercut the troops (going by the way our conservative friends define it, their comments were indeed undercutting and demoralizing our troops), but its not ok when democrats do.

    i have yet to see a response to all the comments bush made about needing to have an exit strategy and a timetable for withdrawl in kosovo and why he does not apply the same standards to his war.

    i have yet to see a response to the quote from tom delay regarding the fact that you can support the troops, but not the president.

    i have yet to see a repsonse to whether or not tom delay dishonored our troops in kosovo when he said victory in operation allied force was "a farce".

    i have yet to see a repsonse to this...
    "I cannot support a failed foreign policy. History teaches us that it is often easier to make war than peace. This administration is just learning that lesson right now. The President began this mission with very vague objectives and lots of unanswered questions. A month later, these questions are still unanswered. There are no clarifiedrules of engagement. There is no timetable. There is no legitimate definition of victory. There is no contingency plan for mission creep. There is no clear funding program. There is no agenda to bolster our overextended military. There is no explanation defining what vital national interests are at stake. There was no strategic plan for war when the President started this thing, and there still is no plan today"
    -Representative Tom Delay (R-TX)

    im begging you - somebody, anybody please please explain how this is ok?
