downsize the active duty military and upsize the reserve... enlistsments max at at 6 years... anywhere from 2 to 6 years an enlistment. So, they don't all have to be renewed over and over, do they? We have no responsibility to employ all these people.

I'm very nervous about this current trend to sent American soldiers everywhere. We are playing globo-cop. We're in so many middle eastern countries now... places you never heard of before, we have soldiers stationed.

The idea that it's about Iraq is almost laughable, if it wasn't so sad. We are setting up a presence everywhere.
