There is a war on and Bush is the wrong one to fight it. It needs to be won but he has no clue about what to do. PM Blair is no better and the only one I like is Australia PM Howard but he should be running the USA. Bush is like watching someone try to do the right things and keep failing over and over.
Bush is fighting the war? I do not recall ever hearing about him fighting on the front lines? I missed something?
Winston Churchill fought the world war so the same thing like that is what I mean.
Churchill fought in WWII? More interesting news to me.
You perhaps missed that whole Prme Minstership thing
Yes but was he actually out in the fields fighting? Do not insult true veterans with claims as to how Winston Churchill "fought" WWII when he did no such thing. The Allied soldiers fought in WWII. Churchill was comfortable in his leather chair safe from all harm.
Ahem...
I am a 'true veteran' i spent an amsuing few months with Operation Friction as part of the larger peration Desert Storm so thats makes me qualified. But as to your defintion of veteran status
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Winston_Churchill#The_Army
For several months Churchill served in the sinecure of Chancellor of the Duchy of Lancaster, before resigning from the government feeling his energies were not being used. He rejoined the army, though remaining an MP, and served for several months on the Western Front. During this period his second in command was a young Archibald Sinclair who would later lead the Liberal Party
So when he could have been nice and safe and sound back in parliment he was instead up to his ass in mud and bullets on the western front in World War 1.
Ahem...
I am aware more than you are his background in World War I and the Boer War. We are talking about World War II. Now shush. Adults are talking here.

And prior to that, of course, he had come under fire in Cuba, India, the Sudan and South Africa (where he was also a prisoner of war). And he had leapt at the opportunity to go to those places, he had practically forced himself into the Sudanese campaign. NOT a great example if one is looking for a sissy, desk-job sort of commander.

Yeah yeah, everybody and his pet dog on the net is an instant history proffesor. But as for the adults and 'true' veterans talking , we all left you in the other room at the kiddies table when you started talking about gay-bashing.

By GREG JOYCE
CASTLEGAR, B.C. (CP) - The United States government is making the same mistake in Iraq as it did in Vietnam and is jeopardizing its international standing in the world, former senator George McGovern said Saturday.
