Epiphany

Here's a novel idea: if you want the war in Iraq to be over....act like you want to be fighting it! Quit bitching about the cost, the loss, how slow the progress is, the problems the soldiers have when they come back, and kick some ass! Approach it like real Americans-full-force, no-holds-barred, 100% guts and glory. War messes everything and everyone up, and it costs a helluva lot of money. Instead of a nation of people bitching and complaining about how we got to Iraq or what's going on there, accept the situation for what it is, put that behind you, and pull out your pocketbook. The sooner we get fired up and motivated, the sooner the world and the soldiers see we support them and want them to do their job well and as expediently as possible, the sooner everyone's spirits rise. Whatever happened to the nation rallying behind the war? Give up all your hate, confusion, distrust and look at it like this: we're already in Iraq. Who cares why we are here, what they told us to make us agree to come here, or who is making money off the war. Just jump into the idea and kick some ass so we can all welcome our countrymen back into the States, tell them good job and thank you, and THEN we can focus on fixing the problems we have within our borders. That's more important, but we can't address our in-house issues while we are so focused on our overseas issues, so lets get the one knocked out so we can then fix that which we've been ignoring for years-our own country.
