lol , nothing to lighten up about, i am too old, but both my boys are still willing and one still works for a military contractor, so taking it to the enemy is not a bad thing even knowing my kids are there....see i believe that we as a country are in danger of another attack on our soil and all will pay a price for it here...but you seem to be willing to "lighten up"...take it easy, don't worry, we aren't always right so we should back off..sorry that doesn't work for me.....if my impression of what you mean by "lighten up" and that america isn't always right and needs to stay out of "stuff" and that you was taken out of context, please...explain it to me....because for me, if our military decides that anyone anywhere is a threat, they had better stick their nose it in whatever name they want to call it....and to go even further, if the powers that be feel the need to strike anywhere just for the sake of doing it, more power to them...you know kind of like the libs accused bush of doing....i am ok with that....my only problem is the gutless libs and dems invoking the ridicules TOE on our troops...like those that barry has done in the afghan war and the dems did in the mid portion of iraq......now with that said, if you are going to tie our troops hands, then don't go in at all....we train them to kill people and break things, then make then ask for permission as the are being shot at...no that i don't support...
