Iraq Troops Complain
Last week, troops complained to Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld about extended deployments and poor equipment. What do you think?
Joy Parks,

"The inability to leave a war zone and lack of safety are the two exact reasons I decided not to join the military."
Neil Dawson,

"I'm so confused. In times of war, should I support the troops or the president?"
Dustin O'Brien,
Fire Fighter
"Don't they know about the military's 'don't ask, don't tell' policy on the 'when do we get to go home?' question?"
Lewis Richards,
Lab Supervisor
"If those troops keep griping and grousing, I don't think they're going to be named Time's Person of the Year again any time soon."
Clinton Rhodes,
Film Editor
"Years from now, our troops will look back at the war in Iraq and wonder why they haven't been allowed to go home yet."
Heidi Williamson,

"Man, all the troops do these days is bitch, bitch, die unnecessarily, and bitch."
