One American's Opinion
Contrary to most liberal opinions, the rights I receive under the Geneva Convention, are not really "rights" at all. They are a condition based agreement. Provided that I hold up my end of the bargain, I am entitled to a certain level of treatment (A level I might add, that while I'm entitled to, I am not naive enough to expect). These "rights" were set up for a variety of reasons. Not the least of which was to discourage those who would step outside the rules from doing so. But, thanks to bleeding heart, moral equivalency, liberals, that incentive will no longer be there.
I find it insulting that when it comes down to it, a liberal is willing to put a soldier in the service of the United States in a similar legal category as a terrorist. It really says a lot about what they really think of the military profession. Sure I've got to hear them over and over again tell me how much they treasure and respect those of us who serve in the military, but its actions like this that really tell the true story.
I would appreciate honesty more than the hollow accolades they throw at us, right before they sponsor the most insulting legislation they possibly could toward the military.
But that's ok, because its all in the attempt to export our values. Which I guess now include coddling terrorists. Innocent Iraqi civilians got to see the tip of the ice berg when it came to liberal pandering to terrorists in the name of "exporting American values" and they were a little confused by it. But, now they can be totally flabbergasted at such a ridiculous and harmful notion. So, thank you liberals, and a few "moderate republicans" for telling us and really the world that in your book a US service member playing by the rules on the field of battle really deserves no better than a terrorist who targets women and children.
I got the message loud and clear.

Excellent points and I couldn't agree more.

There is a certain insanity on display in the offices and halls of certain governing bodies and media. It is an insanity not shared by the people, however. A recent gallop poll: "...indicates that Americans have more confidence in the military than in any other profession (cops and clergy are second and third, respectively).
"Any other profession"!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
...and last I heard politicians were dead last even behind used car salesmen and ambulance, deep pockets chasing lawyers.
