i take exception to your description of Sadams army as Third World millitary. At the time of the invasion iraqs Army was rated 4th or 5th only behind U.S., Russia, and China. The Republican Guard Division was as well trained and well equipped as any soldier on the planet. The fact that our stealth technology and other high tech methods was able to decimate them in short order does not relegate them to "Third World" status. A very big factor in our abillity to win so quickly was simply the lack of will to fight by many of the iraqi's, not lack of resources or training.
To say they were a "Third World Millitary" disrepects our brave men and women who served and died to defeat that army. Make any silly, inane, illinformed, partisan political arguement you want, but don't disrespect our men and women who serve to protect your right to do so in the proccess.
Don't forget that i know you GF, and you are a better man than this.
Climbing off my soapbox now.
