Thanks for sharing your thoughts. Nothing but respect for you, so let me apologize in advance if this sounds harsh. If you want to kick my ass, then I have done my job

You are a great pitcher, but let’s face it the “surge” is hype. We are still in Iraq and will be for years. Bush and his people get richer off of “defense” contracts, and the economy is falling apart. If Gore or Obama had been the leader on Sept 12th, I doubt that they would have walking into the same traps. On top of that, the American people have been scared into the “patriot act” which is about the least patriotic act you could come up with.

If we as Americans give up our freedom in an attempt to defeat terrorism, that it is we who have made the greatest sacrifice, a sacrifice that would have Jefferson, Lincoln and Kennedy rolling over in their graves. Terrorism only works on fear, and for such a fearless athlete, your post reflects a man who is very scared and little.
