		<description>Ah! silly me, ya know, I must be drinking the mind control kool aide. I&#039;ll try to make more sense in the future. After all, what you&#039;re saying is the only &lt;em&gt;reasonable&lt;/em&gt; explanation for increase military enlistment.

And I&#039;m sure Haliburton and Blackwater have their dirty fingers in it too.</description>

		<description>ALZ C&#039;mon the liberals have the answer. The Bush tax cuts have affected the economy so monstrously the &quot;poor&quot; people have to reluctantly enlist to feed their families and provide health care.</description>

		<description>brainfart correction.
&quot;because its the LAST line of defense&quot;

This first accusation of our boys lying in a debate came from Jro at the Seminal. He didnt come right out and say it that way. He claimed the Wash. Post and Huff. Post were better sources, I went of the deep end and started searching miltary blogs so I could shut him down and actually ended up at this one somehow.</description>

		<description>The only reason moonbats say that our guys and gals are lying is because its the line of defense. At that point all is lost because everthing you present is a so called fabrication, even documents. Which reminds me , the list above should be credited to this guy and his link

		<description>&quot;when I debate moonbats they borderline tell me the troops are lying.&quot;

How could anybody accuse these guys of lying? Do they think that the troops like risking their lives and getting shot at/blown up all the time? So much so that they would lie so they get to go back? And even if they were lying to make things sound better, why then would they continue to reenlist and enlist? The moonbats have their heads too far up their asses to know what&#039;s right or wrong any more.

Like Pinkeyes says, Americans continue to fight, to enlist, to reenlist and to do their duty because they believe in what they are doing. Screw the media and screw congress. They are no longer in touch with reality anyway.</description>

		<description>Hey, I live 5 miles from Kaneohe Marine Air base in Hawaii. And these guys are always telling me first hand what its like in Iraq and how the media only gets it 20 % of the time.
But of course when I debate moonbats they borderline tell me the troops are lying.
The Iraqia dont hate us, not the majority. And the succeses far outweigh the set backs.

The first battalion of the new Iraqi Army has graduated and is on active duty.
Over 60,000 Iraqis now provide security to their fellow citizens.
Nearly all of Iraq’s 400 courts are functioning.
The Iraqi judiciary is fully independent.
On Monday, October 6, power generation hit 4,518 megawatts, exceeding the prewar average.
All 22 universities and 43 technical institutes and colleges are open, as are nearly all primary and secondary schools.
By October 1, Coalition forces had rehab-ed over 1,500 schools - 500 more than scheduled.
Teachers earn from 12 to 25 times their former salaries.
All 240 hospitals and more than 1200 clinics are open.
Doctor’s salaries are at least eight times what they were under Saddam.
Pharmaceutical distribution has gone from essentially nothing to 700 tons in May to a current total of 12,000 tons.
The Coalition has helped administer over 22 million vaccination doses to Iraq’s children.
A Coalition program has cleared over 14,000 kilometers of Iraq’s 27,000 kilometers of weed-choked canals which now irrigate tens of thousands of farms. This project has created jobs for more than 100,000 Iraqi men and women.
We have restored over three-quarters of prewar telephone services and over two-thirds of the potable water production.
There are 4,900 full-service telephone connections. We expect 50,000 by year-end.
The wheels of commerce are turning. From bicycles to satellite dishes to cars and trucks, businesses are coming to life in all major cities and towns.
95 percent of all prewar bank customers have service and first-time customers are opening accounts daily.
Iraqi banks are making loans to finance businesses.
The central bank is fully independent.
Iraq has one of the world’s most growth-oriented investment and banking laws.
Iraq has a single, unified currency for the first time in 15 years.
Satellite TV dishes are legal.
Foreign journalists aren’t on 10-day visas paying mandatory and extortionate fees to the Ministry of Information for minders and other government spies.
There is no Ministry of Information.
There are more than 170 newspapers.
You can buy satellite dishes on what seems like every street corner.
Foreign journalists (and everyone else) are free to come and go.
A nation that had not one single element — legislative, judicial or executive — of a representative government now does.
In Baghdad alone residents have selected 88 advisory councils. Baghdad’s first democratic transfer of power in 35 years happened when the city council elected its new chairman.
Today in Iraq chambers of commerce, business, school and professional organizations are electing their leaders all over the country.
25 ministers, selected by the most representative governing body in Iraq’s history, run the day-to-day business of government.
The Iraqi government regularly participates in international events. Since July the Iraqi government has been represented in over two dozen international meetings, including those of the UN General Assembly, the Arab League, the World Bank and IMF and, today, the Islamic Conference Summit. The Ministry of Foreign Affairs today announced that it is reopening over 30 Iraqi embassies around the world.
Shiva religious festivals that were all but banned, aren’t anymore.
For the first time in 35 years, in Karbala thousands of Shiites celebrate the pilgrimage of the 12th Imam.
The Coalition has completed over 13,000 reconstruction projects, large and small, as part of a strategic plan for the reconstruction of Iraq.
Uday and Queasy are dead - and no longer feeding innocent Iraqis to the zoo lions, raping the young daughters of local leaders to force cooperation, torturing Iraq’s soccer players for losing games, or murdering critics.
Children aren’t imprisoned or murdered when their parents disagree with the government.
Political opponents aren’t imprisoned, tortured, executed, maimed, or forced to watch their families die for disagreeing with Saddam.
Millions of long-suffering Iraqis no longer live in perpetual terror.
Saudis will hold municipal elections.
Qatar is reforming education to give more choices to parents.
Jordan is accelerating market economic reforms.
The Nobel Peace Prize was awarded for the first time to an Iranian
- A Muslim woman who speaks out with courage for human rights, for democracy and for peace.
Saddam is gone.
Iraq is free.

Terrorists are being drawn to an arena in which our military can kill or capture them
Sovereignty is restored to Iraq”

THERE ! Chew on that moonbats</description>

		<description>Thanks for those numbers. I hear on the news every so often that the military isn&#039;t reaching their recrutement goals, then when the reports come out I hear Rush mention it, but nobody else. It would hurt their blame America agenda.
 Considering we keep hearing about how our reputation is being hurt worldwide and Americans aren&#039;t proud, these numbers proove just the opposite, Americans are still willing to volunteer their service to the country. Because they believe in America.</description>
