He couldn't have said it better. [/QUOTE]Hmpf.. I think it's a stupid argument. What the hell does Iraq have to do with anything. [/QUOTE]Let's see if you can make the link here.
Both are in the desert.
Both are hot places.
Both parites are living in severe, harsh conditions.
One group signed a dotted line, and swore an oath.

[/QUOTE]Ok, Felix, let the military mind of yours go for a while and try to see it from my viewpoint, okay? Iraq has nothing to do with the way federal prisons work. Prisoners are not comparable to soldiers in Iraq. We know you guys are in Iraq, and we know that you're having a hard time, but there's no need to bring it up every time! It's like each time someone complains about America, the immediate answer is "Look at Iraq! Look at how good we are being to the world!" That's not even an argument, let alone a good one!
