The dead from OIF are the reasons I cited as to why Hendryx's bravado-
laden chest-pounding is nothing in the same universe as humorous. I
happen to agree with most of your points above, and hope that if we do
anything at all to Iran, it's from the air only.

Of course, I'd just as soon we pulled back to the U.S.A. and told the
