Oh, sure. That info from the folks that brink us Keith Olberman.
Besides, the reserves are not "nearly broken". They might be "nearly broke", in which case, they are merely lobbying for more funding. Hardly newsworthy.
If I thought we had any chance at all of invading Iran, I would re-enlist.

WK;
Speaking of delusional, Ahmadinejad provides Bush with a letter stating Iran's clear goal to impose dhimmitude subservience on the west or die by the "Sword"!
The Caliph Umar, in 636 A.D., instructed his commander in Basra to issue a letter to the those pesky Iraqis to "Summon the people to God; those who respond to your call, accept it from them, but those who refuse must pay the toll tax out of humiliation and lowliness. If the refuse this, it is the sword without leniency."
For the sake of argument let us define tolls in modern terms as support for the Palesinians and humanitarian aid to those who support terrorists, and general capitulation (France, Italy) to those who routinely burn planes, trains, and automobiles.
The problem will not be resolved by sending so-called misunderstood jihadists to a weeklong seminar at Esalan on the California Coast. Sharing a hookah pipe with free range hippies in a hot tub overlooking Big Sur will not cause them to see the multicultural light.
Ahmadinejad is calling us out to accept life on his terms or face the "Sword" of retribution. How big a stretch is it to equate sword with a nuclear capability?
We, as a society, must rid ourselves of the New Age notion that our foreign policy should reflect touchy-feely nostroms that appologetically and belatedly acknowledge "I feel your pain". The illogical outcome of this attitude is wrapped up in the tidy package of BDS (Bush Derangment Syndrome).
WK. Listen to the man in Iran. He is telling us what he intends to do. He has 72, brown-eyed virgins to look forward to if he fails. We have a society that will begin to see what it is like to live like Israel as these same psychos start urban renewal Jihadi style in the nearest Starbucks.

Commented over at Milblogs last night, but it somehow got lost in the shuffle. I love the new site, got such a charge out of reading it last night, but it's gonna play havoc with that little bit of sleep I usually get. (Sigh)

"Free Speech from those who help make it possible" - what a great reminder of the sacrifice being made for us every day! This new milblog site will hopefully provide an outlet for our troops to tell the "real story" of what's happening in Iraq and Afghanistan. I will continue to turn to them for the news of our progress (and setbacks) there.
