11. oh I see....
soldiers are dying over there because they're talking in public about the inadequacies of their equipment....setting aside the fact that even the pentagon has publicly discussed and acknowledged that some units have deployed without proper equipment, are the freepers seriously saying that insurgents would put down their weapons and cease attacking convoys and patrols if they didn't know there were problems with armament? More people will die because we're sending more people over into a situation that is getting more and more dangerous....

And I love the idea that Spc. Wilson was a "plant" - implying that he deliberately enlisted in the military for the purpose of getting to Kuwait to ask the question - WTF. And if he was such a tool of the "liberal media" then why was the reaction to his question cheers from the rest of the soldiers in the audience? Are they all "plants"?
